CotW was one of the primary inspirations for my gene-punk Mutant future / Labarynth lord game. I only wish that I could have gotten a physical copy at lulu.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know CotW was released in any other format other than PDF. As far as the critters within, I'm partial to the Creeping Road and Skeletal Tar m'self.
ReplyDeleteIt's a goodly sized collection of Mutants that vary widely in style and power levels. There has got to be something (several somethings really) for anyone GMing Mutant Future or related games.
ReplyDeleteYep, Derek Holland has a talent for creating unique creatures, and thinking out their unique ecology. I also enjoyed doing the art - the Giant Arrow Worm and the Disembodied Hands are my works.
ReplyDeleteVery keen to know that! I thought the Giant Arrow Worm illustration was particularly cool!
ReplyDeleteThanks Tim! :D
