Review

Wonderworld Press has just released the second edition of The World Of Synnibarr, and apparently they decided the time had come to make a few changes. As it seems to be the trend with second editions, the designer (Raven c.s. McCracken) felt compelled to add to the original ideas and expand expand, expand! The end result 478 pages of rules background and character classes like none you're likely to see anywhere else. Synnibarr is not a planet, but rather a gigantic flying starship send on a journey to save the inhabitants of Earth from a galactic holocaust. What does all this mean? It means that Synnibarr is a well thought out multi-genre RPG with just ooldes of places to to go creatures to see or even -play!

From Amazons to barbiarns to cybernetic warriors to shapeshifting monsters Synnibarr has over 1200 possiable combinations and thats just in the first chapter of the book! And just to add to the fun Synnibarr has eliminated the need for Character classes. Some people don't want to play a specific class and in Synnibarr you can choose from 192 skills and play along side the best of them.

Basically Synnibarr let YOU choose the style you want to play. From deep role playing to epic power gaming, Synnibarr can be made to suit any style of play: anything is possiable with this system. From mortality to the realms of the gods, Synnibarr covers it all in a style that is hard to beat. -- From the Publisher
