Review Excerpt:

There's nothing that I'm going to fault Rune Stryders on. I can go through each bit of the book and safely say "I like that". But... the pieces don't quite add all those "I like that" together and I find myself short of the "Hey! Great!" mark. I don't know why but I suspect it's because Fiegel has succeeded in putting together a fantasy RPG that doesn't fall so easily into the safe and warm duvet that is a traditional fantasy game.

It might not be a warm duvet but I really do think Rune Stryders is worth checking out. It's especially worthwhile if you're starting to get bored of your usual fantasy dablings, if you've heard of Ninja Burger but couldn't quite bring yourself to give the strange name game a go or if you've heard good things about Politically Incorrect Games but don't like PDFs. Rune Stryders could become one of those cult classics, you know, like Kult, The Whispering Vault and, er, Ninja Burger.
