Actually, the new edition of Crypts and Things has been out for a while now, but my hardcovers arrived only last week:
I have yet to delve into this new version (while I was a Kickstarter backer, as far as I can tell I never received the PDF version last autumn, and I was a bit slow in ordering in my physical copies). However, once I have a chance to look properly through the book over the next few weeks, I’ll post my thoughts here.
(Of course, it’s hard for me to be objective when it comes to C&T, as it draws upon some of the house rules that I developed for Swords & Wizardry many years ago.)
Based upon a quick skim, it looks like Newt Newport has added a lot of cool stuff to this version! And the new art is quite impressive.
Praise Crom!

ReplyDeleteI should mention that Newt was very prompt in getting me the PDF once I contacted d101 Games via Kickstarter. (I may have accidentally deleted the original message...)
