 | Game Summary | [ Edit Main Info ] |
A setting for AD&D 2nd Edition, Dark Sun details a fantasy world that has been through an ancient magical apocalypse millenia before. The world now is mostly a desert, where the races scrape by a meager living in the wastes where water and metal are scarce, or who live oppressed by powerful Sorcerer Kings.
A psionic rich setting where magic is the cause of environmental ruin, and where only the toughest can survive the harsh life.

| 9 / 10 | g026r | Rating is for the original boxed set. The revised setting clarifies and changes rules, but is nowhere near as good of a campaign world. |
| 8 / 10 | eGuru | Ooh, D&D that's different! Good stuff, Maynard! |
