This project is so top secret, I didn’t even know what to expect! Waiting inside are six new enemies to drop into your FIST campaign, presented in a clever slideshow format.

Enemy statistics are sprinkled across the flavor text, which helps give context and insight into the design decisions. For instance, Ratmen “forgo armor and are sickly in appearance(0 Armor 3hp)”, and the Tin Man, a homage to Bioshock’s Big Daddy, has a “modified diving suit (3 armor) but seem to be sturdy even without it (8hp)”. It’s neat! But I’d also love to see those stats combined at the bottom, as a simple statblock for easy reference.

The writing could maybe use a second pass, and I say that as someone whose writing could usually use a second pass. There are typos and a few rough lines, but the important thing is, there’s nothing to keep the enemies from being useful.

Finally, there are notes on how to roleplay enemy tactics (lizard people attack targets even if they’re not the most effective, etc.) something I always appreciate in a Bestiary.

In my personal headcanon, every game of FIST should begin with a proper 80s movie Mission Briefing scene, complete with intel slides flickering across a wall display. If that sounds like something you’d like to try, “TOP SECRET F.I.S.T EYES ONLY” has you covered.

This bestiary is presented with a lot of character. The slideshow framing is a very fun idea and fits well within FIST aesthetics. The creatures within have some nice descriptions along with the stats, which can help inspire refrees to build their adventures around these beast and baddies. 

A nice resource for those who like to have some challenges readily available or want some creatures to build missions around.

FIST EYES ONLY is a small bestiary for FIST.

The PDF is 10 pages, framed as old-timey slide projections. It's a cool aesthetic, and the supplement being a prop for the game is a nice touch.

The monsters in this supplement all feel well-balanced and interesting, and there's a good variety. The writing isn't always grabbing, but the concepts are good, and everything feels very useable as a GM.

Overall, if you want a nice mix of new foes to add to your FIST game, pick this up. And if you want monsters that you can present to the players in advance, as a slideshow, possibly with a whole in-character briefing, definitely pick this up.

A Fist adventure presented as a projector slide show. A+ for theme.
