Reception[]
Steve Jackson reviewed Cults of Prax in The Space Gamer No. 27.[1] Jackson commented that "Gods don't have to be effective to be important. Belief is the thing, and the interactions of social groups and differing beliefs in Cults of Prax is good fantasy reading even if you don't game at all."[1]
Richard L. Snider reviewed Cults of Prax for Different Worlds magazine and stated that "I view the addition of social interaction mechanisms and a delineated cosmology to be integral to a complete fantasy campaign. Cult of Prax is the only published sourcebook of this type that gives these factors anywhere near their proper weight. I applaud both authors and the editors for their fine product."[2]
O.C. Macdonald reviewed Cults of Prax for White Dwarf #23, giving it an overall rating of 10 out of 10, and stated that "For those who are interested in RuneQuest, I cannot rate this book too highly, it makes an excellent, imaginative and highly playable FRP system into a masterpieces that richly deserves a place at the forefront of the hobby."[3]
