James Spahn has released his Minimalist Fantasy Role-playing game
Untold Adventures with extra options (backgrounds etc) as a deluxe edition. Based on White Box and stripped down to 2 classes, I prefer it to S&W Continual Light, but what do you guys think ?

I haven't looked at the deluxe edition, but I did skim the original one that came out a few weeks ago. It reads more like a set of house rules for WB than anything else, I think he should have just released it as a PDF, something like "hey here are my WB house rules", rather than a new game (
Paul Gorman did this really well with his own set of WB house rules). It's also only about 30 pages shy of the 3rd print of WB, so I'm having a hard time with the 'minimalist' aspect. S&W Light is minimalist, this is not. I was put off by the abstraction of weapons and armor into generic categories, it seemed a little boring. I guess I had a bad first impression and so didn't rush to download this version
. But it seems this one has an adventure, so I think I'll take a look.
