Since I could only pick one, I had a hard time deciding. Eventually I picked the Numenera module, since I haven&#8217;t had a chance to get the core book, and one of my gaming pals has been talking about the system.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Spire of the Hunting Sounds,&#8221; is what I consider the best type of Free RPG Day goodie: a full module with enough rules to run the module (Quick-start), including basic character creation. The booklet also includes QR code and link for extras, including pre-gen PCs. Even if you don&#8217;t run the scenario, the abridged rules and setting information will give a GM or group a good idea of whether they like the mechanics and setting enough to pick up the system.<\/p>\n<p>The basic Cypher mechanic is simple, a d20 roll to achieve a target number or higher, with an increasing difficulty scale of 1-10. There are two unusual things about the resolution, however. First, while skill training, gear, circumstances, etc. modify dice rolls in nearly all games I know of, that isn&#8217;t the case with Numenera, where the GM modifies the target number. Another twist is that players do all the dice rolling, yes even for attacks against them, where they make a defense check. GMs also have ways to add complications, called Intrusions. The system seems simple enough to learn and use.<\/p>\n<p>To avoid spoilers, I am not giving plot details. I found the plot interesting, although not the kind of thing I usually enjoy. I think it could be borrowed for other systems, especially those with a post-apocalyptic flavor, or what I think of as a mixed-genre game. Perhaps RIFTS? There are some alternate-reality bits in it as well. It might also work for some fantasy games, too.<\/p>\n<p>Since it was a Free RPG Day giveaway, I felt it was only fair to let you all know if it was still available, other than from an FLGS with leftover copies or a fellow-gamer who doesn&#8217;t want theirs. So far, alas, it is not in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.montecookgames.com\/\">Monte Cook Games store<\/a>. However, a Numenera Reddit user quotes MCG co-founder Shanna Germain as saying that per the Free RPG Day terms, it will be available later. I haven&#8217;t been able to find a specific date.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, I found &#8220;Spire&#8221; to be a high-quality module, with a solid scenario, good artwork, and enough rules for a group to work with. If you are already running, or plan to run, Numenera, I recommend you pick it up when MCG makes it available.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>\u201cTry Before You Buy\u201d is an occasional segment of Astral Projections.
