This is the same company that created Legendary Lives and Lost Souls. Two other great sounding games that I'd love to try out some time! Great video, Thanks!
Lost Souls is one that I definitely want to cover at some point. When the author refers to the game as "much harder to play... and is something of a novelty," you know there's going to be something interesting there.
Interesting. I had the game way back in the day, but never played it. Looking at the author's site confirms a suspicion I had - Marquee Press was one of many victims of the Magic CCG's meteoric rise (can a meteor rise?) in 1994, the year this came out. Kind of a grim patch for the RPG industry, lost quite a few companies over the next few years.
@@zigmenthotep Ironic, considering the year before MtG dropped they'd been begging for money for their legal defense fund against a pending lawsuit from Palladium. Wizards was *tiny* back in the early days, even if no one talks about Primal Order or their Talislanta runs any more.
yup - this is my favorite video so far
Mork Borg would actually borrow the ‘player rolls for themselves and enemies’ idea

Yeah, the 90s "RPG renaissance" had a lot of really creative ideas coming out and then WotC kinda steamrolled all the smaller publishers.

I came here because Twitch said this game was penultimate 90s RPG, thanks to patented "First Letter 'K'" technology.
This guy's got the beard and the finger nails of a far east wizard.
