This rpg is amazing! . The setting is the first thing that caught my eye, as the interesting premise of having little people using a house as the entire world. And the authors have thought about everything! The sizes are not making sense at a first glance? The Domain Contract is in the book. How do they know of the elements if they live in the house? The Outhold is in the book. How did this world begin? The whole story is in the book. . The parts that I like the most are the historical analysis made by a writer/character that talks to the audience (he even tells you how to play the rpg) and the art. The art is amazing! Daniela Giubellini remains an absolute master of her own craft. . The rules are very good as well, this is a rpg that lets the narrative be more open and some of the mechanical rolls are tangled with how the narrative works (for instance, an ability can state that X will happen when you do Y instead of saying X will happen when you get a certain amount on the die, and this lets the people play it out instead of the numbers). . The dice pool is a very interesting matching D6 faces system and the way it is used in varied and interesting.

I can safely say that I will be playing Household for years to come!

Household is awesome! The artwork is stunning, the writing is wonderfully engaging and very well translated from Italian, and it is simply fun! I adore the setting, which supports quite a few different types of stories with ease. You can certainly take a very whimsical approach of course, or dive deep into the political tensions of the Household and play a darker game. Or if mystery and magic is more your thing, you could explore the various contracts with enigmatic Forces. In any case, the system is a lot of fun, and easy to learn! There's something about finding matches on the dice rolls that is just joyful :)

One of the most fascinating settings my friends and I have ever played in. The system works fluidly with how we've imagined the 'feel' but still has enough crunch to make character generation and progression feel weighty. Using the 'historical events' to help build your campaign is such a clever way to plan but leaving plenty of room for on the fly improv. Cant wait for volume 2!

Dreadful cliché though the expression is, it's suitable for children of all ages. Conceptually reminiscent of 'The Borrowers' and similar tales but very much its own thing; with detailed setting, history and lore that are a pleasure to read for their own sake. The artwork is delightful and really enhances the experience. Can't recommend it highly enough to anyone looking for adventure in a world with just a hint of fairytale about it.

By fair my favorite RPG of the last few years. The setting invokes both whimsy and drama, feeling fantastical and yet grounded in its own way. Somehow it combines the aesthetic atmosphere of both a fairy tale and an historical drama without any strange or awkward juxtaposition between the two genres. Household is an RPG that reads like a book series one may have loved to have grown up with but instead get to act out with their friends at the table. Written in a tone as if penned down by a character in the setting, Household presents itself as a forgotten history of a magical world of the House. While it plays simply and elegantly, I would recommend this book based on writing quality and artwork alone, as it is one of the most immersive RPG rulebooks I have ever come across.

A very well designed game, the art is amazing and the setting itself is very interesting. I've become a big fan of the system of these games, look forward to the other books when they come out.
