I like this set, it's quite evocative and quite beautiful. My biggest gripe with it though is the orthographic top view print outs. They're good and all, but since these are the ones that can be used with figures for gaming, it should be broken up in ways that make sense for encounters. The breaks in the pieces don't really make sense. There are parts of walls on one piece and sections that really go with other rooms. I guess it's just the way it broke out, but I've managed to reassemble it by cutting apart some pieces and it seems to still break into manageable sections. My main concern with this is that if you don't want to lay it all out immediately, but rather introduce rooms as the characters investigate, these breaks reveal too much. Otherwise though, I really like it and will be using it for my games.

As usual for Lord Zsezse Works battlemaps, the Kryos Family Crypt features excellent and imaginative artwork. In this case, you get an entire family crypt—really a small dungeon with about a dozen possible significant areas. Stone architecture and furniture (sarcophagi and the like) dominate this map. The map includes several blotches of flat blue or gray coloration; I’m not exactly sure whether they’re supposed to be puddles of water, slime, or something else. The product includes printable battlemaps, of course, but also top-down and isometric overviews in both color and black-and-white. Poster-sized views and a JPEG overview for use on virtual tabletops round out the product. Also as usual for LZW products, the English text begs for editing; sentences like “I remember I read between the library’s old paper coils from prison break and enormous beings” evoke confusion or giggles rather than sparking a dark imagination. Also, be sure your printer doesn’t need more than half-inch margin on each side, or parts of the map will be cut off.
