My first ever RPG experience was playing Tunnel & Trolls back in the early 80's. I've always had a soft spot for its simplicity, lack of pretension and slight goofyness. It's my "go to" fantasy RPG but although I still have twp different editions from those bygone days, for a current day gamer the game is harder to source; the 40th Anniversary edition made the terrible mistake of betraying T&T's cheap-and-cheerful ethos by being a huge expensive hardback and it's OOP now anyway; second hand copies of any edition on eBay go for stupid money thanks to nerd hoarders so that the only real solution is getting a PDF of the classic 5th edition from DTRPG and getting it printed out.

Until now...

M!M! 2nd edition is basically T&T but with monsters as the PC's instead of the heroes. Perhaps the monsters are the heroes and the heroes are the monsters? How metaphysical! The mechanics of the game are identical to T&T, the spells still have silly names, the approach to gaming is still loose and fun and the layout is both retro styled and easy to read.

Ken St Andre no longer owns the rights to T&T itself. Pease God that Rebellion, the new owners, don't screw it up, but if they do then M!M! remains in Ken's hands to give players the authentic experience of the world's 2nd ever RPG.

Now, if Ken was a true "troll" he'd ready a Monsters! Monsters! Heroic Supplement to release on the same day as Rebellion's version of T&T. Perhaps he could go even further by calling it by the game's original name of Tunnels & Troglodytes, thus retaining "T&T" once more for himself.

Jungle Jeopardy is my first entry into the Zimrala universe. Yes, I'm a little late. I'm always behind on everything. The proposed adventure is captivating, violent and very funny. All the ingredients that make for a good story can be found in this single-player module, and I even took some sexy liberties. But I must frankly admit that I would not have bought Jungle if it had not been available in POD. My computer is dying, dying of thousands of PDFs that will never be read and will be useless before the end of the world. I'd rather see books burn spectacularly than files disappear into silence.

This is a very excellent update to the MM rules. It is presented well and easy to learn. It improves some of the rules from the earlier version. Great work!

A very cool adventure set in the MM world of Zimrala. I'm very happy with this product.

This is an excellent resource for any Monsters! Monsters! or Tunnels & Trolls game. I plan on running my next fantasy campaign in Zimrala. Keep up the great work!

This is a supplement for the revitalised Monsters!Monsters! game. It comprises a short solitaire adventure, suggestions for running the solo as a GM adventure (and expanding it), and additional background on the Kindreds of Zimrala (The "offical" M!M! game setting). The book also includes a set of one-page "easy play" rules.

When solitaire gamebooks first came out they tended to be rather chaotic, effectively a series of random encounters. This book is much more coherent. As you work through the paragraphs of the adventure, there's a definite sense of a story being told - your decisions as a player will influence what happens, but everything will unfold in a logical fashion. Also, the descriptive passages within the text establish a strong and coherent backdrop to the adventure (and also suggest hooks for a GM to expand upon).

The separate GM section includes a map and briefly describes some additional locations. There is a lot of potential for a GM to build their own adventure around this, either following on from the solo or as a stand-alone story.

The book includes two sample characters, always useful for gauging the difficulty of an adventure. One is very powerful but still not guaranteed to survive (I speak from experience...)

The easy play rules are intriguing - enough to get you started, though necessarily they don't deliver the richness of the full M!M! experience. (The full M!M! rules are available separately and are a bargain, in my opinion.) Even if you are an experienced player I'd recommend trying easy play at least once - it's an interesting exercise in mental discipline.

Overall this is a nice package at a decent price. M!M! products are appearing quite frequently at present - I'll be looking out for more

love this game, as a solo player this is a must have. and the quick play rules are heaven sent. the setting is so cool.

a must have. some of the coolest monsters out there. they will work in any world.

omg 140 pages of nostalgia and so much killer art.

I love this so much.

This is good for historical use only unless you assume success when competing against other members of Trollhalla (The now defunct T&T forum). Recommend adding an appendix with the stats of the Trollhalla members. Also missing paragraph "I".

A pulpy slice of new fiction. Pirates! Evil wizards! Jungle heroes!

Slithery Jungle Tales is a loving tribute to popular fiction of the past. This is adventure fiction stripped down to the loincloth. It knows what it is, what it is trying to do, and does not pretend to be anything else. Very refreshing.

Eagerly awaiting issue number 2.

This is one of the best bestiaries I've read hands down. You can use this for any rpg system, which is awesome. So if you are looking for new monsters, this is an excellent resource. The art is spectacular as well and really adds to the atmosphere of the book. Not only is it a great bestiary, but it describes an entire new world that you can play in called Zimrala. One last thing to mention is that it made me want to play the Monsters! Monsters! RPG. After reading about some of these monsters, what would be better than to play as one of them. I highly recommend this wonderful book!

Excellent new world for RPG enthusiasts, be it players or game masters to explore! Legendary team who have been bringing our hobby top notch rulesets and materials for almost fifty years, this new world and the Monsters! Monsters! rules are must haves!

This a great book.

It is very well written with dry wit and humour that made me laugh more than once. The story itself is just like diving back into one of those adventures that you cherished on a gaming night, it was nice to get back there especially in this period!

I thoroughly recommend the book for any Fantasy RPG players, of course especially T&T fans... so buy it, you won't regret it... (remember that with a bit of imagination, and using the map that is helpfully included at the end, you could even play the adventure through with some friends too, so double the value for money!)
