On first reading it has the elegant simplicity (and that does not mean it's not nuanced- there are clearly strategies players can develop here) of In Darkest Warrens, the 'pick up and play' accessiblity and a healthy dollop of Mythos. Nicely done Scott, I'm full of admiration. Now to try out the scenario..."what?... put down that Shining Trapezohedron you fool!...no...the lights have gone out...Yog-Sothoth save me (yep, that's one of the enemies detailed here with a very effective four-fold risk indictor) .. the three-lobed burning eye.."

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
