Barbarians of the Ruined Earth (Special Edition Cover)
by Kevin [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 01/11/2024 08:52:21

Barbarians of the Ruined Earth is the perfect replication of Saturday Morning Cartoons like He-Man and Thundarr the Barbarian in Table-Top RPG form. Evans does an excellent job of pairing mechanics with setting to keep the game light and easy to run and filling the book with more than enough material to keep game masters minds brimming with ideas! This game is based on the fantastic The Black Hack mechanics but you do not need a copy of that game to play this one. Do not hesitate to pick up this game if you want to relive your Saturday Morning TvLand with Mad Max Fury!

Hubris: A World of Visceral Adventure
by Kevin [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 01/02/2024 10:31:18

Mike, the author, does an excellent job of presenting a setting for DCC complete with new rules, classes, species, etc. Early in the book Mike takes some time to explain his goals. Mike wants this setting book to be a table resource and not taken too seriously. He wants this to be something used during every game session and not a book of fluff. Mike knocks this goal out of the water! Between the adventure hooks, rollable tables (which there are a ton and it is totally worth it just for those tables!), patrons, spells, and so much more. Please don't wait to pick up this setting to spice up your DCC play!

DIY RPG Rules Playtest
by Brent [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 12/17/2023 11:50:45

A standard set of house rules - every idea here has been presented elsewhere, often in a more coherent and consistent manner.

Barbarians of the Ruined Earth (Standard Cover)
by TIMOTHY [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 11/06/2022 07:38:29

"Barbarians of the Ruined Earth" masterfully captures adventure and creativity. Built on "The Black Hack," it's perfect for solo or group play. A hidden gem: its mutation and tech options offer simple yet exciting character customization. I loved crafting a unique character for solo play, adding unexpected depth.

Orcs! A High Octane Adventure!
by Bob V. G. [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 07/04/2022 05:59:10

Orcs! A High Octane Adventure! (available at DriveThruRPG) is an exciting 50 page adventure for Hubris: A World of Visceral Adventure, but I used Gamma Five – A Gamma World Conversion for DnD 5e (84 pages). To solo this, I used Mythic (with a twist). I created five random third level characters: a fungus, a pure strain human, an Ubermensch (Trisha), a saurian, and an amphibian.

The adventure starts on a train. The PCs are hired as security guards to protect the train (the pay is lousy). The train starts moving and later the non-stop action begins. The characters did not go backwards (three cars back that way), but forwards. They explored a total of 11 cars (rooms). Some of the cars were locked and trapped, but no worries, you always have the option of climbing up and over the car (there is a chart for this). Oh, and most of the train cars are random (you use a deck of playing cards – great replay value). So yes, there were orcs to kill and even a flying squid. My PCs were doing great until they got to the engine. It was here that they ran into the Big Bad Abomination. This thing could, in one combat round, use its green eye attack, regurgitate two Corrupted Humans, and possibly a melee attack (my opinion – over powered). My PCs quickly saw that this battle was hopeless, except for Trisha. She was going to fight it to the death. Several PCs tried to blow up the engine. The conductor attempted to spit acid on the abomination but missed. The acid hit the engine and then it blew up. All the monsters and the PCs in the engine car were destroyed. A Total Party Kill. Well, maybe you will have better luck.

Barbarians of the Ruined Earth (Standard Cover)
by Wesley A. [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 01/04/2022 21:07:12
Full Disclosure

I did recieve a gratis copy of the book for an unbiased review.

Review

I grew up loving Thundarr the Barbarian as a kid, Barbarians of the Ruined Earth is about as close as you can get to role playing in that amazing world. The game is based off a roll under mechanic, which uses the actual ability scores as the number to roll under. It's simple to pick up, and character creation is a snap. Characters who have very stats may be the bane of the GM's existence, though. So come prepared to figure out other ways to challenge a character, because just throwing a more powerful monster at a party isn't necessarily going to work.

The artwork is amazing, and the design of the book is inviting. This is one worth buying.

My full review is over on my blog.

Barbarians of the Ruined Earth #1: Slave Mines of Vindicus the Terrible
by larry h. [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 11/27/2021 17:20:43

I have the pod version of this and the art is great. Very evocative of the mine adventure. Color is strong and book layout is easy to read through and absorb. The locations are well marked and there are several secrets to let your players explore. Tips for handling playing as kids and running a fun adventure.

Barbarians of the Ruined Earth (Standard Cover)
by Jim C. [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 11/12/2021 07:02:03

I love this book. These are the rules my buddies and I have been looking for our journeys in the Earth’s post-apocalyptic landscape. The main mechanic of the game, the stat test is simple to understand and teach to others. My gaming group, one new guy and three experienced players, were up and playing in less than 15 minutes and that included rolling up characters. The selection of 8 different classes/races hits the sweet spot. Not so many to overwhelm your players but there is still enough variety, so every class/race is unique and has a place in the party.

The book is nicely illustrated and written with a great tongue in cheek attitude but as a GM what I appreciate the most are all the random generation tables. Twenty pages of stuff like Bring the Crazy, Punishments of the Ruined Earth and Weird Weather. All good stuff that helps when your players decide to do exactly what you didn’t prepare for and you need something interesting and whacky to keep the game going.

Mike’s love of Thundarr the Barbarian comes through in every page. Being a fan of the Sun Sword wielding barbarian myself, this was a no-brainer to pick up. I only wish I had learned of this book sooner. This is what I imagine an 80’s Saturday morning cartoon produced by Troma Studios would be like and I love it.

Hubris: A World of Visceral Adventure
by Jeremy C. [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 11/01/2020 11:45:55

This is so good! I used it to create a pocket dimension in one of the planes for my D&D game. It was awesome. Definitely gave the game this cool Heavy Metal feel. I cannot recommend this enough as a supplment for a high fantasy RPG.

Barbarians of the Ruined Earth (Standard Cover)
by John S. [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 08/16/2020 00:54:57

The mechanics are easy to pick up and the setting is perfect for anyone who enjoys post apocalyptic wildness and the aesthetics of the 80s and 90s. The classes are all well balanced and fun, clearly designed with a lot of love for the genre at heart. If you like Thundarr the Barbarian, Mad Max, Water World, He-Man, She-Ra, Thundercats, Wizards, and the blending of science and sorcery, check it out!
