This PDF is 171 pages long (167 pages being the actual content).

Artwork: pretty good (all black and white). Caeron 3000 is basically OSR (D&D) space fantasy.

It has the character sheet (2 page), world map & other sheets with a sample scenario at the back.

There are other OSR sci-fi RPGs: Star Without Numbers (£11.99 - Core, or the free edition), Hulks & Horrors (£8.99) for example. I believe Dragonstar would also be among the list as well.

Apart from the 2 reviews here, there are no other reviews of any kind on any other RPG sites. The website (caeron3000.com) is non-existent. Magiqueproductions.com is barely working; only the Home & Contact are working, and have no mention of Caeron 3000. It's as if they've just tucked it under the carpet and forgotten it.

The only colour is the front & back covers.

At £4.50, it doesn't seem too bad (some support from the publisher would be nice).

Thank you for your very honest and forgiving review. It has been a long time since we did anything with the Caeron 3000 brand and it unfortunately was tucked away for a very long time. However, I'm happy to say that we are working on an updated version of the game, which will be released with a full-color hardcover option. The game universe is going to be changing quite a bit, but I believe all for the better. In addition to the updated rulebook, we are also planning to release adventure content. The website will be updated with the new game information and we plan to support the product going forward.

Not a bad-looking book with good-quality art (also see the addendum which has more dramatic race depictions) and layout. The PDF would be better with bookmarks. Rules and equipment are quite derivative of other products, mainly D&D with some Star Wars elements. The setting is a fairly simplistic science fantasy. Each has some points of interest - particularly some of the races and the skill-based character generation, with careers mostly as a guideline (some mechanical effects persist in the form of starting skills).

Garbage. Poorly disguised D&D rules. Terrible artwork. A game anyone past the age of 12 wouldn't enjoy. This is so disappointing. In a genre full of half-done, poor game systems, this one really takes the cake.
