Knock! #2

Following the success of our first issue, we put this new offering on Kickstarter and united over 2,700 backers behind our ptoject in June 2021.

Again, we asked adventure gaming luminaries to share some of their most impactful work. We also accepted submissions of new material from a wide array of designers, old grognards as well as newcomers to the scene.
Everything was tightly and stylishly packed into an even thicker tome of OSR goodness that is a pleasure to read by the fire, as well as a useful addition to your refereeing toolkit. It is filled with that old-school-slash-adventure-gaming unique flavour: thoughts about system and substance, useful rules and procedures, random tables and lists, pages of maps, six new classes, nine new monsters, and four complete adventures.
