TUO 18 Reviews<\/h1>\n

Dorkland review by Christopher Helton<\/a>
\n“The writer’s credits features a who’s who of some of the best and most knowledgeable Lovecraftian gaming writers outside of Chaosium itself.”<\/p>\n

RPG.net review by kafka<\/a>
\n“Anyone remotely interested in Call of Cthulhu should be buying copies of TUO.”<\/p>\n

Game Cryer review by Ken Newquist<\/a>
\n“The\u00a0Oath<\/em><\/strong>is steeped in atmosphere. It saturates every page, oozes from every story \u2013 and makes you want to recruit a new band of investigators in order to subject them to its horrors.”<\/p>\n

Mundo Tentacular review<\/a>
\n\u201cIt’s not always what we see as an oath so unspeakable.\u00a0Simply indispensable.\u201d (via Google Translate.)<\/p>\n

Pookie\u2019s Reviews from R\u2019lyeh<\/a>
\n\u201cLong may the magazine continue its self-held high standards.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tales from the Savage Troll review<\/a>
\n\u201cThe contributors’ love of the Mythos shows on every content-loaded page.\u201d<\/p>\n

RPG Geek review<\/a>
\n\u201cI wish the editors every success for a long life for the Resurrected publication.\u201d<\/p>\n

TUO 19 Reviews<\/h1>\n

Mundo Tentacular review<\/a>
\n“And so ends one more appearance of the legendary\u00a0The Unspeakable Oath,<\/em> again living up to its reputation among fans of the Mythos.” (via Google Translate.)<\/p>\n

RPG.net review by kafka<\/a>
\n“Anyone remotely interested in Call of Cthulhu should be buying copies of TUO.”<\/p>\n

TUO 20 Reviews<\/h1>\n

Mundo Tentacular review<\/a>
\n“Este tratado feito por David Hardy e Scott Glancy (com pontos semelhantes \u00e0 hist\u00f3ria dos Assamitas do\u00a0World of Darkness\u00a0) \u00e9 extremamente \u00fatil para o Keeper, seja para um cen\u00e1rio historicamente fiel, fantasia medieval ou envolvendo o Mythos de uma forma mais Pulp.”<\/p>\n

Roleplayers Chronicle review by Aaron T. Huss<\/a>
\n“Another excellent entry into\u00a0The Unspeakable Oath<\/em> library.”<\/p>\n

Diehard Gamefan review by Alex Lucard<\/a>
\n“All in all, this was a good read and I\u2019m sure I\u2019ll be back next quarter with the review of issue #21.”<\/p>\n

(Editor’s note: Some of the errors brought up in Mr. Lucard’s review were in an early PDF release and were corrected before going to press.)<\/em><\/p>\n

RPG.net review by kafka<\/a>
\n“What stands out with Unspeakable Oath is that near always it is consistently very good to excellent; and issue number 20 is no exception to the rule.”<\/p>\n

TUO 21 Reviews<\/h1>\n

Dreams in the Lich House review<\/a>
\n“‘Sukapak’ is an atmospheric wilderness jaunt in a remote fastness; there’s a lot of ambiguity around what’s actually going on, but the scenario is menacing and disturbing (and could port well to other genres, too).”<\/p>\n

Roleplayers Chronicle review by Aaron Huss<\/a>
\n“This issue presents a number of great scenarios and tools for the Keeper to create their own great scenarios.”<\/p>\n

RPG.net review by kafka<\/a>
\n“This Unspeakable Oath<\/em> pulls its weight and the adventures make it worth its weight in gold.”<\/p>\n

Robot Viking review by Ed Grabianowski<\/a>
\n“It’s\u00a0packed with weird and horrific materials for Lovecraftian adventures.”<\/p>\n

Diehard Gamefan review by Alex Lucard<\/a>
\n“It\u2019s well worth your money to buy this issue … just for this adventure (‘The Man With a Thousand Faces’). The fact the vast majority of the issue is quality as well is just a bonus.”<\/p>\n

RPGGeek review by Eric Dodd<\/a>
\n“It\u00a0(‘The Man With a Thousand Faces’) was great fun to read, with an impressive atmosphere, a sad back story and memorable characters \u2014 worth waiting a year for!”<\/p>\n

TUO 22 Reviews<\/h1>\n

Dreams in the Lich House review<\/a>
\n“Issue 22 features a cool monster, the China Doll, a living doll-face that grafts itself to a victim, as tendrils from the mask burrow into the victim’s brain and turn the victim into a puppet. \u00a0I’m stealing that one, for sure.”<\/p>\n

Diehard GameFAN review by Alex Lucard<\/a>
\n“As always,\u00a0The Unspeakable Oath<\/i>is, pound for pound, the best gaming magazine today\u00a0and it\u2019s well worth spending five to ten dollars on.”<\/p>\n

RPGnet review by kafka<\/a>
\n“This issue is a little heavy on Trail of Cthulhu<\/em> (even if it is not mentioned by name) rather [than] BRP.”<\/p>\n

TUO 23 Reviews<\/h1>\n

Diehard GameFAN review by Alex Lucard<\/a>
\n“If you\u2019re a fan of horror tabletop gaming and especially\u00a0Call of Cthulhu<\/i>, then you really should be picking these magazines up.”<\/p>\n

RPG.net review by kafka<\/a>
\n“By far is one of the best scenarios that I have read in a long time.”<\/p>\n

TUO 24 Reviews<\/h1>\n

Diehard GameFAN review by Alex Lucard<\/a>
\n“Jam-packed with excellent story seeds, adventures and ideas that will make your\u00a0Call of Cthulhu<\/i>\u00a0or\u00a0Delta Green<\/i>\u00a0campaign all the weirder.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
