I snatched up the free PDF’s of Delving Deeper the other day and finally got a chance to sit down and look at it.
Yep, it’s another retroclone. It’s not bad. Sort of a Little Brown Books meets Holmes edition type thing. I didn’t have the time to dig down and compare each and every last rule, monster and magic item with every other retroclone out there plus the originals. Really, who has that sort time on their hands? I know there’s plenty of retroclone core rules out there but heck another perspective on the same thing can at the very least lead to some inspiration for your own home spun frankengame. It doesn’t mean you have to use the entire book for your game. That’s what neat about the old school frame of mind.
Like I said, it’s free so just head on over to Drive Thru RPG and check it out. What do you have to lose?
