By putting you into the role of a creator-deity in charge of shaping a fantasy realm, this game has a found a wonderful niche. The rules are just enough to get you going, but the true magic happens when you and your friends become lost in the story you create together.

Amazing. Even better than its predecessor. An absolute treasure chest of tables and procedures with depth and flexibility to inspire GM prep, on-the-fly improv and solo play.

This is super helpful for this solo roleplayer, especially the few (but very good) tables within!

A book that helps you GM on the fly or jump starts your pre game prep

This is a fantastic resource for any GM running a space-based campaign. Specifically, I think the planet generation system presented here is much more fleshed out that what is found in tools like Stars WIthout Number and even Ironsworn: Starforged (both of which are fantastic resources in their own rights).

This is a perfect supplement for games like Lancer and other starfaring games that don't really provide their own tools for bringing your own little corner of the galaxy to life.

This book is amazing. I use it with Savage Worlds and Mythic as my go to for world building and solo playing! Better than the Tome of Adventure Design!

I use this book probably more than any other book I have in my collection. I very much am an emergent-gameplay kinda guy, and every chart in this book is worth its weight in GP. While written with Dungeon World in mind, I've used it for Mausritter, Avatar: Legends, D&D, Exalted, pretty much anything where we don't know what's going to happen next.

Just get it.

I have the original Kickstarter version of this book, and I have to say that it is permanently in my to-go game bag. I can use it for any fantasy game to generate regions, overland stuff, or dungeon stuff on-the-fly. It's also great for solo gaming. I use it for the system agnostic tools, but if you're playing Dungeon World, I can imagine it is pretty great for that as well. I'm very looking forward to the author's 2nd edition of Freebooters on the Frontier, which I know builds off the systems in this book.

I am very impressed by the layout and readability here. This game takes a very unique approach to explaining the rules by giving the GM a script to follow. This script guides the players through the phases of the game to create a collaborative, non-combat focused, emergent narrative. Bored of just killing stuff in your RPGs? This game seems perfect for a three session mini campaign break, but also could support a much longer campaign. The art is rad and fits the themes of the game too.

I'm not a fan of Dungeon World but find this book is great for other systems too (with minor tweaks) I already had the PDF but picked up the POD recently and it's a great little book! We really like how the encounter tables aren't just enemies but cool stuff too! Things like "You find a bush that can be used to make dye" can lead to some fun story threads that "you fight another goblin" might not.

Literally just the pages from Perilous wilds that contain random tables. Only the page numbers are different. The same effect could have been achieve by just grabbing the relevant pages from the Perilous Wilds revised Edition PDF. Disappointed that more effort wasn't made to change the layout for more compactness at the table. Do not buy if you have bought the Perilous Wilds Revised Edition PDF - it's not worth it. It would have been nice if that had been made cleaer.

That said, the table are amazing and I use them regularly in my games

Perilous Wilds is maybe the most important expansion of the Dungeon World rules that I've come across. It flushes out a lot of the aspects of D&D style play that were missing in the original book, and it smoothes over some of the rougher aspects as well.

The rules for recruiting and creating followers are a blast. You get to collaboratively discover what kind of strange, flawed NPCs will join your party.

The rules for collaboratively drawing the world map are equally exciting.

This zine is kind of blowing my mind. Most adventures are too specific for me, so I wind up borrowing ideas and piecing them together into a pastiche that takes a lot of time for me to hit the right mood and requires me to rewrite and write from scratch lots of stuff. But these dungeon starters are the perfect amount of detail and specificity. And the set of questions to ask your players at the beggining of each is super helpful in connecting their characters to the adventure.

While I do own Dungeon World (which this is a supplement for), I have never played it. Regardless, I have found numerous uses for Perilous Wilds. The tables within are so useful for coming up with inspiration when I am dming a group. They are even more useful when I am playing solo. If you own Ironsworn this book can be a great way to give some flavor and additional excitement to your expeditions through the wilderness (If Ironsworn has one weakness, it is the lack of wilderness related tables/lack of depth in the wilderness related tables. This book fills that gap for me).

If you've just bought Dungeon World, this should probably be your next purchase. I particularly enjoy the thematic dungeon building systems. The content and ideas presented here are also applicable to other game systems.
