Kickstarter Watch: Shadows of Esteren – A Medieval Horror RPG: Occultism

If you have been reading the blog lately, I have been excited about the game Shadows of Esteren. So, go figure that they begin a new Kickstarter before I actually get a chance to play the game. Which by way, I am scheduled to join an ongoing campaign in January; just my luck! I am going to watch this campaign and I may just have to back this one. They do have an option to purchase all their previous books in PDF for $60. They would be a great addition to my Book 1.

      Thanks for the post. I will be sure to tell blog readers about the my experiences with the rules, setting and my thoughts about the game. I am really looking forward to playing in January.

      Do you have any first time player tips?

        You should take a look to the Book 0 Prologue as it is free on drivethru: http://rpg.drivethrustuff.com/product/109112/Shadows-of-Esteren–Book-0-Prologue

        You have a summary of the world and the rules (6 pages each) and it can be very helpful to begin your journey as a player or a game master. Also, there are three scenarios but only if you will the game master 🙂
        I am the author of those three and you can ask your questions about them on the official forum, in the game master section : http://www.esteren.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=47&t=701

        Cheers!

        Nel,

        Many thanks! I have previously downloaded the Book 0 and have read it thoroughly. I have not ventured into reading the three scenarios since I will not be the gamemaster. I also have the forums bookmarked 🙂
