Swords & Wizardry Quick Start Reviews

Just a week after its release, Chgowiz’s Swords & Wizardry Quick Start is already generating some glowing reviews from places around the Web. This won’t come as a surprise to those who’ve had the opportunity to peruse the book themselves. Chgowiz did a great job of distilling the S&W rules down to a summarization that makes the book easily accessible to people experiencing Swords & Wizardry (or role-playing games in general) for the first time. He completes the Quick Start’s “one-two punch” with a fantastic introductory dungeon designed to give novice dungeon crawlers a taste of just about everything they might encounter during their adventuring careers.

If you haven’t given the book a look for yourself yet, visit the links below to see what others are saying and then grab a copy of the free .pdf. Better yet, add a printed version to your next Lulu order and share the Quick Start with family and friends who’ve been wondering what this role-playing game thing is all about.

  1. Hi,
    I like "old school" role-playing games very much and I discovered the Sword & Sorcery Quick Start some weeks ago. I think French players would be happy to have this booklet in their language. Are you interested about a french translation ? I can make it. It's up to you.
    Bye for now.
