This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

I stumbled across this Swedish (?) RPG through downloading a free iPhone app for the game.  The app is a scenario generator.  I then found the website for the game and it is in English and I find the premise of the game intriguing.  It looks like the game is currently out of print, but you can purchase a PDF of the game.  According to a currency calculator it looks like the PDF is about $15 USD.

So, do any of our EU members have any experience or knowledge about this RPG?  If so, would you please share your thoughts on it?  :)

I'm on the fence to add it to my list of possible future purchases.

I missed it when it was still available (in print, that is)...

I don't want to play it but I am really intrigued by the character creation method: it uses a board game (very sturdy and durable game board) that is sold seperatly. It reminds me of the "sphere grid" of Final Fantasy.
You roll dice, move a pawn across a branching life path and collect skills and experience.
Watch the video!
Swords & Wizardry & Manga ... oh my.
(Beware. This is a Kickstarter link.)

Now, that's interesting.  Thanks!
