Next on my reading list: Sandman: Map of Halaal

James Wallis referenced this game in one of the RPG questionnaires that circulates around the interwebs as a game that has had a lasting influence on his game design. Jason Morningstar commented that the game had an impact on him as well.

Shortly after that conversation, I read about the game in Shannon Appelcline's Designers & Dragons: the '80s and was intrigued by the idea of the game.

So I found a cheap copy on ebay and ordered it up.

Anyone out there ever play it? Thoughts? Impressions? I'll tell you mine when I'm done reading.
