Since the time when my initial review was posted, Healing Fireball has updated product to include a two-column table for generating the names of fantasy trees, plus a table of pregenerated fantasy tree names and descriptions, and an extra table for vines. The content in all of these tables is good, but the responsiveness of HFP to customer feedback is AMAZING.

Normally, all I want for my 50¢ from a Two Bit Tables product is a bit of flavor to spice up my "read-aloud text," so to speak. This product certainly delivers that, with separate tables for 100 temperate-climate trees, 20 tropical trees, 20 fruit trees, 20 evergreen trees, and 20 broadleaf trees. There is also a very brief discussion of how to mix trees in a semi-realistic forest, and while that's helpful, I would have gladly traded a few of the temperate trees for a bit more of that discussion. I suppose that when I purchased this product, I was expecting some fantasy trees in the mix, in addition to real-world trees, but I'm pleased with the product as it stands and will use it more than enough to justify my purchase price.

One question, though: why, exactly, is this product line called "Two Bit Tables"? If this is a reference to digital data, why does the illustration have two 1s, instead of a 1 and a 0? If this a reference to the price, then it's too low by half, since the product costs four bits, not two. Ah, the mysteries of life.
