The Jester's Handbook

The book is full of Talents and Archetypes with punny names that some will find rather sour to read but don't let that stop you. The actual rules are pretty solid and no one said you can't rename some of the more silly ones like Knightknight and Magemage two very solid options for the Mageknight.

The book comes off as just a joke at first with all of the names of all the added talents and archetypes being puns or other such jokes, but all the options I'd say are actually pretty dope and add some options to the sphers that just feel like nice quality of life stuff. Overall, great book.

Some good, some underwhelming, and some positively nutty options in this book. While the flavor may turn some away, as is often the case with april fools themed content, the mechanics within are genuine and consistently worded for the most part. A fun and Fun pickup for any sphere's game.

Somehow made some of the cringiest sounding classes and talents - I'm looking at you E-Lemon-talist - actually functional and fun. The names and lore of these classes are silly, but the mechanics are dead serious, and a great addition to DDS's library of content.

Rare is it that there is a marriage of humor and mechanics that works. Yet DDS outdid themselves with this tome. While a support book to their main series, it is deserving of mention as a hilarious addition to the repretoire of DM and Player alike. Even better, they dropped sneak peaks of behind the scenes things being worked on!

If nothing else, the content can be reflavored as something else. Perhaps wielding the powers of citrus fruits is not your lot in life and you'd prefer to simply wield acid. Perhaps the call of the KnightKnight isn't for you and you'd prefer the title of Gallant or Knight of the Realm. The fact remains that if you'd prefer to live a less flavorful life, the mechanics within are all completely viable and just a step away from different names.

For the rest of us, the Fondue Cannon is far too hialrious to not use.

Well written, quality content. The jokes are hilarious in how groan-worthy they are, perfect for making your friends roll their eyes. Even better that it's all usable, meaning you can bring it to your GM and they should be able to sign off on allowing it. Great work on this one!

One of the best April Fools books I have ever purchased, The Jester's Handbook keeps the flavor of comedy while still providing useful options to the players using it. If you use either or all of the Spheres systems you will have some new options here from Citrus based casting all the way to bears sitting in on noble banquets. Don't miss out on this book if you enjoy just a bit of wacky in your game.
