Reception

[edit]

Andy Butcher reviewed the fourth edition of The Pocket Players' Guide for Arcane magazine, rating it a 9 out of 10 overall.[1] Butcher comments that "For the price of a starter deck, you can't really afford to be without this book, and it serves as a very good example of what a CCG players' guide should be."[1]
