This book has been so helpful in prepping my games! I've used it to make NPC ship captains, describe rooms in dungeons, and it has added so much depth with minimal prep time for my games. If you look at the product's description it lists all the various tables that are in the book you can use. The sample pages are super helpful as well if you want to evaluate this book before buying it.

One of the tables that has been the most helpful for me is the Stress table, as my players wanted an alternative mechanic to madness that has some mechanical and narrative impact to our games. This book packs such a punch and is so inexpensive- check out the samples and get it if you can!

Another great supplement from Sly Flourish. I especially enjoy the advice on encounter building. Using the quick and easy calculation here, you can have a pretty good idea how an encounter will go. More maps are always helpful to any DM too.

This was the first Kickstarter I ever backed, and it's because I believe in the Way of the Lazy DM!

I got Return of the Lazy DM last year, and it changed the way I prepped my games. The Lazy DM's Workbook has been a greatly valued tool I use when I run my games. With the Lazy DM's Companion, the trilogy is complete!

The Lazy DM's Companion is, well, a companion book to Return of the Lazy DM. It's designed to fire your creativity when prepping for your games. The vast number of rollable tables guarantee that you'll either find something you like directly from the table, or it'll help inspire you to come up with something of your own. The included maps are also a big help.

Highly recommend The Lazy DM's Companion. It will make your life as a game master so much easier!

Purchased the first copy and kickstarted the Companion. I have a copy of both printed and close to my desk every night that we play. Fantastic resource for the busy GM!

I don't join many Kickstarter campaigns. But I joined this one, and the author did not dissapoint.

This is valuable stuff for anyone who runs RPG games. Whether you're a DM, GM, MC, Narrator, Facilitator, Director, Storyteller, or whatever... if you want to run better games, This is the Way.

(Or at least a good part of the way, to adapt into your own process as you see fit.)

Seriously, though, I've been running games for 30 years. My own way of doing things, arrived at after much trial and error, is not all that different from what's been laid out here. Even so, this book is still useful for even an old hand like me. I mean, who doesn't love tables, right?

This is a fantastic book and I'm grateful that I backed the Kickstarter. Pretty much every time I prep for the campaign that I'm DM'ing, the Lazy DM's Companion is open so that I can use it as a reference. It's been great for helping to pull together compelling adventures when I need to brainstorm ideas for my group. Highly recommended for DMs!

Was instantly useful during my game prep. Also worked wonderfully for the two very different settings I was running games for (Mystara inspired world and Ravnica). I don't always find random table to be that helpful, but the ones provided here created an excellent jumping off point for areas I have trouble with (fantastic locations and other setting related elements). I'm going to get a lot of use out of the book. Well worth the price.

This book has tables that make Stars Without Number blush - and it is centered on fantasy instead of science fiction. If you appreciate some random inspirations to help you fuel design by constraints, grab this and have a look at the demonstration videos as well!

I firmly believe that Mike Shea (Sly Flourish) is one of the most wonderful additions to the TTRPG community the hobby has ever known. I own pretty much everything he has ever created and I base my games heavily around the Lazy DM approach (which I find accessible and practical). This book is another great addition to his catalogue of work and I cannot sing its praises enough!

The helpful tips, rules reference sheets (easy to read I might add!), maps and fantastic random tables are enough to buy this book, but you get even more besides!

5 stars!
