    I think that's more of a warden/player choice than a system issue. According to the Warden manual, rolling should be pretty rare, as opposed to DnD where you roll for near everything. I'm sure you can lean harder into killing the players if you want, or the opposite direction, managing stakes seems to be where the real skill in a Warden comes from.

      Maybe, but the fact that the top of the sheet has a score which is "number of sessions survived" and basically all the interactions the players have with the world are "try not to die", it's not really set up for a long campaign with the same characters. It certainly could be run that way though. It's just not my cup of tea.

        Ey, to each their own! A lot of that comes from tone setting, and you absolutely can run it as a meat grinder if you want to. I like it because it can be easy to drop in or out of, personally, as a new GM it's nice.

        Plus, I bought a sandbox module that seems to be more focused on political intrigue and revolution than outright horror, so I can swing it in another direction if I want.
