Drop Bear! Lol. The Ozzie terror! The Koala on crack! Brilliant!

I really like the layout and design. The color choices were bold but they work.  I think the idea of Camp Talents quite a bit. 

I'd love to see an adventure someday in this setting! : )

I love the presentation. And writing. Really well designed. Stands out from a lot of products that really just look the same. Keep making stuff!

Really great. I usually get put off by colors in Shadowdark stuff, but this was done really well!

Outstanding visual presentation, with content that has a feel all its own.  Real good stuff.

Mate, this was pretty decent.  I f’n love it.

I’m used to Ocker Aussie stuff each time I see Australian outback settings, but thankfully this was made for those that have gone bush and have shared a yarn around a campfire.

Things that made this extra special for me is where you know where to push the Australian colloquialisms, and where to not go too far.  i.e. You’ve got the Drop Bear and Bin Chicken, but you didn’t make the kangaroo into a boxing kangaroo.  You’ve hit the sweet spot, and have gained yourself a fan.  Bonus points that thankfully there is no mention of a Billabong or a Matilda.
