Torg Eternity – Death of the Mystery Men in Review

The PDF is bookmarked with major sections linked. Navigation is okay. The text maintains a two-column format and appeared to be free of errors. There are a number of colour illustrations which look like they have been reused, as well as a map. Presentation is decent.

This adventure is dangerous; the threats the characters can face have a good chance of significantly injuring them if they aren’t careful. It also provides some background information about some of the strange effects of the Nile Empire’s axiom wash, in particular the Egypt That Never Was, though the players may not uncover most of this. How it ends will also determine just what happens to many of the existing Mystery Men. Torg Eternity – Death of the Mystery Men is a decent little adventure and it can be found by clicking here.
