In this small (but very economical) supplement, you will find 5 Golden Age characters ready to use in your Triumphant! sessions. The characters are relatively unknown (nobody will be excited because Ace the Amazing Boy appears) and are not particularly interesting, as the brief descriptions are basic and flat. Both hooks for game sessions and suggestions for introducing characters are sorely missed. Worse still is that some characters are connected to other heroes who are never mentioned again and have not been adapted either.
About the graphic part, the layout is extremely simple, and the drawings are quite basic, giving the impression of being created hastily rather than with a desire to emulate classic comics.
Is it worth buying? If you want 5 characters with minimal Golden Age background, yes, undoubtedly, as the price is very reasonable. However, if you have some time, you can easily visit any public domain character website and create your own heroes in a few minutes. After all, one of the advantages of Triumphant! is the ease and speed with which you can create your own PCs and NPCs.
