Pros: Fun concept and lore. Good looking PDF. Simple mechanics. Multiple language options. Can be played with wide range of players (including solo).

Cons: I don't know enough Bon Jovi songs. Not sure how the well the difficulty scales; it reads like it would get significantly harder with each less player (due to separation range increasing each full round). Prayer Roll needs clarification and/or redesign (see below).

Notes: There's some ambiguity in the Prayer Roll section. It says Bon Jovi gains power "if a 1 is rolled on the dice", but you're rolling two dice (d10+d100). Rolling a 1 (total) on two dice is impossible; does it mean if one or both dice show a 1? If so, do you still check the result (total of both dice) on the prayer chart? Also the prayer chart only has 50 entries but (1d10+1d100)/2 yields numbers up to 55. And how do you handle dividing odd numbers by 2? I think the whole section needs to be rethought.
