Review by C.J. Bunce
Everyone has had enough of 2020, maybe more so than any year in recent (or distant!) memory. Isn’t it about time we have more fun? Simon & Schuster imprint Adams Media has a quick way to get started. Editor James D’Amato has enlisted forty game players and game makers to build 40 quick-to-learn roleplaying games in The Ultimate Micro-RPG Book. The ideas are brilliant, the breadth of content, completely creative. You can choose from several levels of complexity, different genres, game types, game tie-in props and tools, and a variety of tones and formats. If you like to play roleplaying games (RPGs) or you’re a beginner, you’ll find a lot to propel you to create your own games and enjoy something new to play right now in this volume.
