This product is clearly targeted at character background completionists who print their sheets for tabletop play, and it works well enough for that purpose. It's a great looking design for full colour printing, though somewhat medicore in black and white. For digital usage however, the PDF is sorely lacking in several areas. Foremost, the file size optimisation is poor, with the design bloated by both unnecessary and invisible content. Furthermore, a number of form-fillable sections visible on the printed sheet have been glossed over, or straight up ignored, leaving several columns and sections unusable without PDF editing using professional tools. This lack of care speaks more to pushing out a product for the sake of it, rather than releasing a functional digital character sheet, which is disappointing. For a couple of dollars this PDF will indeed save you piecing together your own sheet, but unless you're printing it out, or prepared to do a lot of PDF editing yourself, I'd recommend looking elsewhere.

It is very rare to find truly unique RPG Products. First Responders is one of those books that present you a whole new area to explore at the roleplaying table. The setting is not innovative due to even stranger assumptions, but focuses on the very mundane work of extraordinary heroes: First Responders!
That this is an intriguing concept can be seen by the success of TV series like Chicago Fire. It is a surprise, that a setting like this wasn‘t explored in depth earlier.
The book comprehends whatever is needed to run a TTRPG-Session in the style of first responder series and reflects on the specifics of the genre. The Cypher-System is used well by interpreting disasters as „living“ enemies. Fires can expand by spawning, stun us with smoke and cut us off from our team members. This interpretation is highly thrilling and supported by the resourceful creativity of the authors.
Together with great artwork, a clear presentation and excellent writing, this is a mjust have for everyone who ever thought about bringing a fire-fighter or rescue series to the table.
(Review is based on a digital review copy of the complete book. Unfortunately, DTRPG does not allow to write a review if you got the book from elsewhere)

Excellent book: clear, simple. Easy to build the character. Need complex one?- Cypher System allow You to describe anything You want.
Any genre, any setting.
Also allow concentrate yourself on the game itself. Instead of permanent dice throwing.
One thing I don't really like: DM never uses dices according to CS. But I've broken this rule and do use dices as DM: do it in some situation instead of one ot the players.

If you're looking to start a cyberpunk game using the Cypher System, look no farther than this. Definitely worth picking up... you won't be disappointed.

This is a great Classic Fantasy toolkit for the Cypher System. I changed a few things for my own games, but that's what a toolkit is all about. If you are looking for a supplement to bring over your DnD-esque game into Cypher, get Mortal Fantasy.

Old school CyberPunk feel for a modern CyperSystem game! Awesome value!

An absolutely fantastic (AND FREE!?!?!) product that was so needed in the #TTRPG-verse. I use this product regularly, especially when running horror games.

Consent and approval on everything is the poison of free thought, debate, philosophy, logic and good. It is the oppression of truth and right. It is the world-wide psyche that will hopefully end when the absolute truth of good is rediscovered by those few sane minds, then these populist evils will hide, in shame of the things they have done, if any shame, dignity, belief or justice remains in the world, not fed to the absolute freedom for everything evil.
People with proper minds, stay away from these promotions of new age evil and the companies promoting them. I will sure be more careful of bundles and offerings, they are slipping these current affairs and political manipulation products inside them.

The conversion is very well done. It allows smooth entry for any D&D player into the cypher system. I highly recommend it!

Sometimes we learn by seeing how others create. The Darkest House inspired me to look at layering in my gamemastering. It is a great resource to see how, why and what game construction.
