Combines Conspiracy theory and gaming well!,
By Captain Nemo captainnemo@rica.net (20,000 Leagues Under the Sea) - See all my reviews
This review is from: GURPS Illuminati: The World Is Stranger Than You Think (GURPS: Generic Universal Role Playing System) (Paperback)
I have always been a fan of conspiracy theory and gaming. There is no better book available for bringing the darkness of the conspiracy into the world of RPG's. Whether you believe or not, this book contains the best. Even the cover gives you a "glimmering" of what's inside. If you want to play "X-Files" style campaigns, this book has my very highest recommendations. If you want to bring a little "light" into this type of campaign, try GURPS IOU.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Encyclopaediac!,
This review is from: GURPS Illuminati: The World Is Stranger Than You Think (GURPS: Generic Universal Role Playing System) (Paperback)
This book's a fun read and "chock full of" Illuminati information, but the art is taken directly off the INWO cards, and few guidelines are given to GMs who are not already experienced in subterfuge. Long-running non-fantasy campaigns that could use a "something lurking in the background" could benefit from this book.
2.0 out of 5 stars
Too shallow, not enough HOW TO,
This review is from: GURPS Illuminati: The World Is Stranger Than You Think (GURPS: Generic Universal Role Playing System) (Paperback)
I found this book disappointing. It had very little hard, practical advice on HOW to GM a conspiracy type game - such as how do you plot it out? How do you gradually reveal the conspiracy to the players, how do you keep them guessing and intrigued?
It was also heavily padded with large, badly-drawn 'illustrations' that added nothing to the information, or to the 'feel' of the game. The space could have been much more usefully employed fleshing out the mechanics of running the game.
