Jerry Pournelle (SF writer, computer columnist and general curmudgeon) in his Online version of his long-running BYTE column, said:
>>>
The game of the month is King of Dragon Pass, published by A.Sharp
LLC. I guarantee you that it is the most unusual game you will have
encountered this year. Part fantasy, part anthropology, it's unique in
that everything you do counts, but figuring out the ethical rules in
this kind of barbarian society isn't easy. Imagine being chief of a
Viking band, and having to keep all your troops happy. This isn't a
Viking game, but there are strong elements of that culture. Anyway, I
liked it. It may not be easy to find.
