Hmmmm.... I first played D&D when I was around 13 or 14, so I know that swords and sorcery are of interest and available then. And I know that as everyone does, we went through some really sick periods of gaming, where we came up with things that really appealed to our twisted young minds... nowadays, that kind of stuff is on television after 9PM in the States.

As for the age the game is designed for, it's rated as a mature game. That means that in the States, in some places a store could get into trouble for selling it to someone your age. Go figure.

Personally, as long as you can keep the distinction clean between the real world and the Gael Serran, things are fine. Once you start thinking about how close you could send a throwing knife to the teacher's chair, it's time to take a breather.

Not that I'm encouraging mixing throwing knives and teachers together. My mother retired as a teacher, and most of the effective teachers I've seen might hurl that throwing knife back...

As for the game, I think it's a great challenge with a lot of intricacies, which makes it fun to play over again. Sure, there are a couple of bugs, but by and large, they don't detract from game play. The only thing I'd like to see is the W&W expansion pack...
