Description

Swashbucklers of the 7 Skies is a swashbuckling RPG set in a fantasy world of islands floating in the sky, which offers players the chance to heroically adventure across the heavens.[1]: 425  The game uses Chad Underkoffler's PDQ system, which shared some characteristics with Fate - such as its use of Fortes (or qualities), which could be freeform occupations, motivations, histories or organizations.[1]

Reception

Shannon Appelcline, in his 2011 book Designers & Dragons, noted that this was a more traditional RPG for Evil Hat, and commented: "Whereas The Zorcerer of Zo had received some criticism for its rough development of superb ideas, Swashbucklers of the 7 Skies was a more polished game, showing the benefits of indie designers working together in a larger design house."[1]
