Undeath is creepy and gorey and dark! The idea that you are saving your own soul from oblivion by "harvesting" others is weird and more intersting than just collecting money or mana or xp. I love how everything is connected and your character builds and grows despite being dead. Simple concept that can become as complex as the players and GM want it to be.
Living weapons are awesome - a blade that thinks and feels and is joined to it's user!?! Wild!
Also the artwork is very professional but with a cool "sketchy" quality that really works with the ragged vision for the dark game world. Beautiful pencil work that ranges from heroic (depite the heroes being already dead) to downright frightening. Wait til you get a look at the Ash Daemon- the stuff of nightmares!
Feral games has created another fully realized game world with the ability to jump right in as well as tons of nuance and subtlety for those who love detail. All beautifully presented (including a slick character sheet packet) for less than a the cost of the snacks you will want while staying up all night playing!
Don't hesitate to buy this game!
