Vanguard Bandits is another experience that I've never seen before or since. It's incredible, and it's unique, and that makes its gaming history. Players would appreciate the kind of amazing story and gameplay on offer here, some, uh, slurs aside. I assume those can be removed? And game designers can study it for advice on how to make their own TRPGs better. It's the kind of game that makes you want to explore all the options they give you, and in the end, leave you wishing there was always just a tiny bit more to discover.
