Review of deadEarth Player's Handbook
Goto [ Index ] |
I have been playing deadEarth for a couple of years now. I actually joined up with a group including the creator of the game and the original play testers! deadEarth is the most realistic role-playing system I have ever played. It uses a realistic skill set and it's combat works out like real life. This game allows you to do something that I have never seen work out ever before. If you want you can put yourself into the game as a character. You might say, What fun would that be?
Trust me, it is. Putting your real self into an unreal world is such an incredible experience-you have to try it to believe it.
deadEarth is set in an all too possible, post holocaust, future. There are many fighting factions; famine and pestilence are common themes all over the globe; radiation is playing havoc with the genetics of all deadEarth's living inhabitants; and there are many legendary figures and myths talked about in your average pub. Basically, this world and this game have all the chaos you need for a good time. You really have to check it out.
It is downloadable for free at http://www.deadearth.com.
The creator of the game also recently posted an online players database called dE-C-L-A-N-S. I haven't gotten to do much with it yet, but it looks cool.
Style: 5 (Excellent!)
Substance: 4 (Meaty)
