I share my review and page through Lamentations of the Flame Princess from James Edward Raggi IV. Is this early OSR release still one of the best? Or does LotFP focus far too much on being shocking for the sake of being shocking? You’ll find out!

Summary
There's a lot to like about LotFP even if you don't plan to use the system as your roleplaying base; the simple yet effective encumbrance rules as well as the magic section are excellent. I also love the fact that the author doesn't drone on and each rule section is concise and to the point. Also, while Lamentations of the Flame Princess has a reputation of really pushing the envelope of good taste, outside of a few gruesome and graphic images, this book is presented pretty straight forward. sadly, most action resolution outside of the skills is kind of ignored. All in all though, I certainly do recommend kicking the tires on LotFP.
