HoL

Summary: The Most Entertaining RPG I've played.
Review: Hol is one of the most interesting RPGs I've ever played. Let me give you an example. In my first game of Hol, at one point, we were stuck in a 10 by 10 stone room. We had no way to get out. Or so we thought. My friend summoned about 200 children, which he ordered to repeatedly run into the wall. AND IT WORKED! After playing in games where characters could grow extra limbs, make their voice sound more important than the voice of God, use sarcasm to make a meteor grow a face and cry, eat an obscenely large, unedible object, engage a huge evil enemy in a game of childish insults, buy Tito Puente at your local Caldor, or roll dice to die, it's hard to go back to Mage and Werewolf. Good job, Black Dog/White Wolf!

Summary: Therapy for the jaded gamer
Review: Hol, the game you need after years of TSR and Games workshop abuse. You really do need Hol, you just don't know it yet. Find a copy and just read it. If it does make you smile, then you are probably dead.

Summary: Hands down the funniest RPG out there.
Review: I enjoyed HOL more than I thought possible. The system is relatively easy to use (it is a little bumpy for my taste), but the entertainment value of the book alone is completely worth it. The companion, "Buttery Wholesomeness" is equally as quirky, and definately adds what is lacking to HOL. Character creation is such fun that my cohorts and I made several, just for giggles. Fun to play, a riot to read, if you are a gamer, I recommend this for a light-hearted spin on the atypical RPG.

Summary: Innovative, wild and satirical.
Review: The thing about HoL is, you either love it or you hate it. It's an RPG conceived as a rebellion against other RPGs. Everything in the book is hand drawn/hand written in black and white, and the result is astoundingly cool (and incredibly quirky). The authors love to go off on hilariously manic rants about all sorts of odd subjects. Of course, they also satirize anything they can--the futuristic civilization is controlled by a church, which is a thinly veiled parody of Christian churches hybridized with fast-food corporations. There's also references to graphic violence, bestiality and (since there are no women on HoL) homosexuality. So, as said above, definitely NOT for everyone, but still very well done.

Review: This has got to be the greatest rpg ont this blue marble. Fuzzy waddling pudding critters, salvation(ooh! big word) and a cheeseburger in one stop, and hard sharp things that go 'cut', What more could you want? It's even endorsed by the International House Of Scrambled Eggs!

Summary: I just couldn't stop laughing!!!
Review: This Rpg breaks all the stupid rules and that makes it one of, if not the best, Rpg's out there!! Never have we had a session with more humor or Actual ROLE playing. I ran the game and couldn't belive how "into" it my group got. It really is more fun than FARMING, and it will mess you up.

GET THIS RPG FOR YOUR SANITYS SAKE!!!!!!

Summary: My kids love it!
Review: With all of the complex, rules heavy games on the market, it was a pure joy to be able to teach my two kids, ages 9 and 11, to play HoL! The rules are insanely simple, make for fast, exciting play, and allow you to totally immerse yourself in playing. I recommend this game for any parent wishing to teach their kids to roleplay, and as an educational tool as well! No better fun to be found anywhere! Both books are fantastic, with great writing.. you will be laughing for hours!
HoL, so good the entire family can play!
