The Octagon
Publisher: Encompass
by Juergen G. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 02/05/2009 08:51:13

Art & design are good, plothooks are available, inhabitants are nicely described.

As answer to the negative feedback from other reviewers Encompass has also within 24h released additional ink-saving battlemaps for each of their products, so this issue seems to be gone.

Reasons for not giving 5 stars are the missing basement and the fact that to me the wizard theme was too similar to Encompass' other product "Mad Wizards Tower". Also The Octagon has only 4 inhabitants (5 with familiar) which gives me a feeling of "emptiness" - to me a lost opportunity for providing more plothooks and room for intrigue as it was for example done in "Tendril's Oak Inn".

Tendril's Oak Inn
Publisher: Encompass

Art & design is good, inhabitants are nicely described, plothooks are available, descriptions of each room with a lot of love for detail (example: staff does not like the lavatory on 2nd floor because they have to carry the water up there). The printing related issues my fellow reviewers report don't bother me - I consider the available view maps, 1 for each floor, nice and detailed enough at least for my roleplaing games, no need to print out anything else.
