Is the Liminal Horror rpg a good one ?

[Lychee of the Exch.]

Thanks for the answers ! For those interested, I noticed that the pdf of Liminal Horror is available for free on DTRPG.

Oops my bad. It was in my Modiphius folder and I remembered wrong. (i corrected)



Answering questions and picking options certainly took us easily 2 hour to fully complete character creation with 4 players.

But for both Into the Odd and Liminal Horror, it isn't much quicker for removing to-hit roll, since in D&D we roll damage dice at same time as hit rolls. Regardless, the amount of HP and events in combat still took 4 players over an hour to finish a combat scene from start to finish. it's fine... its not not "PBTA fast"...

I love Into the odd, but there are more fiddly bits that folks tend to forget until we get into play and recall there are more things to track, pick, option than it seems on the surface.

As my two cents, this is completely counter to every experience I've had with Into the Odd and Liminal Horror in both character creation and combat.

Both have never taken more than 5-15 minutes and I've run many dozens of sessions in each. They are the absolute fastest systems I've run outside of a simple FKR opposed 2d6.

I admit I might be doing it wrong though. Just wanted to provide a second opinion.

I think people are mixing up the "Liminal Horror" rpg with the "Liminal" rpg from Modiphius. The names are just too similar.
