| 4 + 4 | Sérgio Mascarenhas | Basic Role Playing. Did you know it really exists? [ Read Review ] |
| 3 + 2 | Eric Brennan | Basic Roleplaying: The Chaosium System. Basic Roleplaying: The Chaosium System is a short and inexpensive book that accomplishes all of its design goals but clearly could have been so much more if a different tack had been taken. [ Read Review ] |

| 3 / 10 | Simple Man | Pretty blah and uninspiring. |
| 4 / 10 | ShannonA | Not that interesting of a book, but probably a nice intro if you haven't seen BRP before. |
