Reception
Lawrence Schick comments that "the rules are really secondary to such guideline sections as 'Acting Appropriately Stupid' (explaining why you shouldn't run away when you suspect there are blood-sucking monsters around) and 'Crummy Endings' (tricks for the GM to pull when a scenario goes wrong, e.g., 'Suddenly the sun rises and all the monsters shrivel up and die')."[1]
