The Inside Scoop on Gaming

Ed. note: see my note on the other DC review.

DEMONGROUND is the free e-zine for the Dark Conspiracy rpg which is currently available in a second edition from Dynasty Presentations Inc. The game itself is a fusion of modern horror and cyberpunk-ish genres, with a big dash of National Enqiurer style conspiracy theory thrown in.

The latest issue is No.5, and it looks really professional. Contained within the rather wonderful front cover there is every type of information for the game, including new nasties and the third instalment of an ongoing adventure which seems to be written by everyone connected with the magazine. Although I must admit to being a contributor, I have to say that Demonground just gets better as it goes on, and that is not a biased comment. I have no idea about desktop publishing and e-zines, but I know what I like and I like what I have seen so far.

Anyone interested in the Dark Conspiracy game, or indeed with an interest in near future/horror/conspiracy games should take a look at this. Point your browser at http://www.42north.org/~demonground/

Thanks for your time :-)

Style: 5 (Excellent!)
Substance: 4 (Meaty)
