3.0 out of 5 stars
A fun setting, but not good for long.,
By Daniel J. Fawcett (Columbus, Ohio) - See all my reviews
This review is from: GURPS Planet Krishna (GURPS: Generic Universal Role Playing System) (Paperback)
For those who don't know, GURPS planet Krishna is based on a series of SF books that are somewhat tounge-in-cheek parodies of the Mars books by Burroughs. I must give a warning: DON'T BUY THIS BOOK UNLESS YOU'VE READ THE STORIES.That being said, it is a fun setting to play in. It's light. It's fluffy. It's been described as Space Opera by Gilbert and Sullivan. But the setting wears mighty thin, pretty quick. Within a few weeks, my players were rolling their eyes. "Aw, man... why can't we play something else?" That's not good... you want your players to have fun, not view gaming as a chore. The real joy of this book is that it exposed me to the original series. That is the real strength of this game... the setting it is based on. |
