Big congrats for the ENNIE nominations, Phantom Mill team.

Thanks so much!

Would this play ok with Knave?

(+1)

We ran one playtest session with first edition Knave and it worked very well. Haven't tried 2e but it should work as well.

cool thanks!

I've read through this and it's AMAZING! I'm planning to run it for my group using Shadowdark, which is close enough to OSE stats to convert on the fly!

Excellent! I hope your group has a good time with it.

I am POSITIVE they will!

I was absolutely blown away by this book. Every idea is gameable, evocative, weird but gettable, interesting. It sticks in the mind. The setting is like deja vu. I love it.

Wow, thank you. Working on this book was a joy, and a response like this means a lot to us.

Rabidly waiting for the next one.

Do you have a sense of how many total will be in the Wildendrem series?

(+1)

We currently have plans for four more volumes of similar scope (with the next one well underway). But the full map of Wildendrem encompasses nine provinces, so we could keep going if fate and fortune permit!

I bought the hardcover book from their website and it came with a PDF. This is AMAZING. It is a wonderful sandbox stuffed full of interesting locations, hooks, quests, and interesting factions/NPCs. 10/10 would recommend.  Also the book's production quality and layout are superb, the art is beautiful and fits it perfectly.

I'll be terribly sad, despondent even, if I never get a volume two.

Thanks so much! And rest assured that we are working away on volume two :)
