Really cool, it's a lot of information, and a great suplemental sourcebook for anyone wanting to run a campaign a little more focused on the city of Yatamon itself.

Absolutely love the source book! Rhey really do capture the Ghibli and Zelda vibes! Me and my girlfriend love how atmospheric our DnD sessions are!
Rossa W.5/5Verified
Yatamons expansion is really good, its like the Waterdeep of Obojima. The writing is amazing giving the opportunity for dms to flesh out existing quests or to make their own. Im definitely keeping an eye out for a dnd beyond release!

Cats lots of cats. Also superb artwork as always. My sister who hates DND actually looks through the books for the art alone.

I love the supplement! Would love it if there were a bundle option for PDFs and physical books, since I'd love to pay a little more to get both at the same time, rather than buy both formats twice.

I love the first and now the new book, congrats on a great product.
but, as a product that is sold at the same price of the first book, honestly it felt unjust.
I'm saying this with every ounce of respect for your work and you guys must have a good explanation for it, but, a book that is a complement for the first one, that has less pages, doesn't have any adventure modules, the subclasses and other aspects are bits and pieces of what is disclosed on the discord server.
for me the subclasses were a a bit of a gut punch, because the was a lot of ideas on the discord server and only those 3 were added to the book.
i believe i would not be making any of those complaints if the second book, as a complement were of a lesser price that. maybe is a pricing and a perception thing.
hope the best for you guys and i wait anxiously for the next book

I was worried that it would only be good for 5.5e and I would have to change things myself but they added a 5e section at the beginning of the book.

Amazing

I bought the odd as I forgot to back the kickstarter and the physical book wouldn’t be out. One of my regular game groups loves the concept and I wanted the Yatamon book in case we do a semi regular Obojima book which I believe is going to start very soon.
Timothy G.5/5Verified
Good
Clifford A.5/5Verified
I love the book, funnily enough it came 3 days before my players made it to yatamon, so I could give em the full map and now they're hyped to discover the city. ❤️

I love obojima!!!!

Let me lay out what I would consider the good-to-great, the okay, and the bad.
The Positives:
I really enjoy the city aspect that this adds to the world. I previously found it hard to incorporate first-world tech into the game, and this makes it feel so much more natural. I also want to mention that the new fighter subclass is phenomenal; I really enjoy the defensive, reactionary playstyle it encourages. Finally, I love the addition of more backgrounds and feats to flesh out character creation.
The Mid:
I think the two other subclasses are just fine. The rogue is really intriguing but, speaking as a DM, it would require a player who knows how to properly use it, as well as a lot of coordination with me ahead of time. The coven idea is interesting, but again, it adds a bit too much complexity for my liking.
The Bad:
The book heavily overdoes it with how many times it drives home the point of, "There's no crime and/or major trouble caused by the inhabitants." I enjoy the laid-back nature of the world, but I don't need to be reminded of it constantly. I would also argue that the new magical items and monster stat blocks could use a little more juicing, there's really only one new high-level encounter creature. This, however, might just be a "me" thing.
All-in-All:
This is much more of a DM-facing book than a player-facing one. Unless you're a player who really wants access to one of the new subclasses, there's not much here for you. For DMs, however, this book does an amazing job of fleshing out the world and providing a fantastic major hub to explore. If you are getting this strictly as a DM, it's an easy 5/5. But because I know players will want to grab it and won't find much for them, I have to give it a 4.

I backed the first book and missed backing this one so I preordered it none the less can’t wait to get my hands on it I know this one is gonna be good

Great book with amazing new locations and sights to see in Yatamon! Love the art and all the new goodies to play with. Wish it came with a separate pdf detail map of Yatamon though (maybe I just missed it)
