I was disappointed by this supplement.

To start, the game itself is 5 stars, no question, created the best rpg experiences I have ever had. Buy the game!

But this supplement really did not add much value. I get that it is not a mechanically deep game, but the bestiary really does not add much at all beyond 2 stats (health and difficulty) that anyone with any amount of rpg experience (or the ability to learn from the monsters provided in the core book) would have no trouble coming up with (heck, before buying the book just using the quickstart I created a couple of encounters with comparable complexity to anything in this book).

More interesting are the plants and minerals (which saying plants and minerals are more interesting than monsters kind of says what I thought about the monsters), which is a place I would give the game designers credit in how unique the focus is and on what it does to the worldbuilding.

But even those you are not going to get much use out of unless you have players that are interested in being an apothecary or craftsman and are willing to read the book themselves.

Not a badly made book, but one with disappointingly little use in game.

But again, the game itself is 10/10 perfection!
