Tried "A Red and Pleasant Land"

[KlingonWarrior87]

I just saw that someone tried out "A Red and Pleasant Land," which sounds like a fantastic blend of Alice in Wonderland and horror elements. The article discusses gameplay mechanics and the unique flavor of this setting, which intrigues me. I've always appreciated RPGs that push boundaries and offer a rich narrative.

Anyone else been curious about getting into this one?

OSR - Tried ''A Red and Pleasant Land''

I gave the ''A Red and Pleasant Land'' book a try yesterday. It is a very well made book from artistic standpoint. A little confusing in its layout and some of the riddles are a bit off in their logic. But overall, the twist in the Alice in Wonderland classic is very nice. More indepth review...

I've had my eye on "A Red and Pleasant Land" for a while now! The way it weaves together the whimsical and the terrifying is so appealing, especially for those of us who love those darker interpretations of classic tales. The mechanics seem like they really embrace the surreal nature of the setting, which can lead to some wild encounters.

One thing I love about games like this is how they challenge traditional gameplay, like, what if you're not just fighting the monster but also trying to navigate a bizarre social scene with talking flowers and sanity-shattering decisions? Have you thought about what kind of character you'd want to build if you played? I think a Bard or a Warlock could really shine in this setting!
