If you enjoyed the core rulebook then this is a must have. And if you have played D&D, Dungeon World, and similar game systems, this lets you put the dragon inside the cave waiting for you the delve right in.

Incredible how much new stuff it brings to the table, didn't expect this much depth next to the delve mechanic. MUST BUY.

Have the print edition. Well organised, good art direction..plus the game itself is an evocative, creative and inventive rpg. I especially like how it facilitates solo play, but great for all sorts of stuff. Definitely recommended if you like solo play or enjoy fitd or pbta games.

I can't believe this is FREE. This is a perfect child of PbtA and Mythic Solo RPG systems that grew up to be a beast of its own making. The progress track is a solid mechanic that wonderfully abstracts the complexities of typical RPG systems to make solo play fluid and fun.

Concise and summarizes the rulebook very well. A must have to print for coop gameplay when only one has read the full rulebook, making it much easier to explain the mechanics while they slowly gloss over the pages.

Delve is a wonderful add-on to Ironswron and the card mechanic is brilliant. These cards are well made and clear, a pleasure to use.

I used to be a digital-only player but recently swapped it out for an all-physical kit and these cards are a fantastic part of that. Clear and well made.

I was a D&D player since the 80's, and never thought any game would unseat it as my "default" game, but Ironsworn has done just that. Elegant, smart, atmospheric and flexible. Ironsworn is the high water mark of the Apocalypse Engine games and the vanguard of a whole new wave of refreshing takes on tabletop RPGs.

Swear the Iron Vow. You won't regret it.

A great game gets better. Delve adds richness and expands the mechanics of the base game in a natural, intuitive way.

Get this brilliant piece of Solo-RPGing!!

Ironsworn is an amazing game! I'd never have thought that you can just sit down with a game on your own and create such compelling tales and have such a good time! At the end of a session you are stunned about how the story developed almost on its on. The concept of the game is great and it has just the right amount of complexity to keep the game running smoothly and make the rolls important and decisive.

Highly recommended for everyone who wants to try out Solo-RPG. It also works great cooperatively!

The layout of the book is top-notch as is the quality of the book (black and white). The art is brilliant and adds a lot of atmosphere!

Can't wait for Starforge, the next Ironsworn title that Shawn is working on!

Really handy and well formatted for DIY printing. Thanks a lot!

Absolutely beautiful game design that combined the best elements of PbtA and other systems to creat a functional GM-less system. Particularly great for solo play.

Delve is an exceptional addition to Ironsworn Core, the new moves and oracles fit perfectly without adding too much crunch. Great work! UPDATE: a little update about the hardback edition that I received a few days ago. It was my first POD order so I was a bit worried, I must say I am impressed by the overall quality, the binding seems durable and the paper is good. Handling it gives a good feeling. Suggested.

I burned through all Delve content in a few nights, and immediately applied it to my first session. Even coming in for the first time, these new rules complemented the Core content so well that I couldn’t imagine playing without it (and I don’t have to now! Woo!) If you enjoy base Ironsworn, or are hoping to try it for the first time, my first suggestion would be: Pick. Up. Delve. The new features & rules expand the setting in a meaningful way and only add to the experience. I’m quite satisfied with my PDF purchase, but am planning on a hardback cover soon (also very cheep!). So if you’re on the fence about getting it, all I can say is DO IT.

I've played a fair bit of Ironsworn already, and Delve really rounds out the experience in my opinion. It gives you tons of new oracles and new methods of generating encounters, as well as more sophisticated threat and reward systems.

Ironsworn was already good, but with Delve I now consider it my favorite narrative RPG, especially solo.
