Publication history

West End Games originally published the generic Masterbook set of role-playing game rules in 1994, quickly followed by the fantasy-noir Bloodshadows setting. The Bloodshadows supplement Galitia Citybook also appeared in 1994, a 128-page softcover book written by Teeuwynn Woodruff, with artwork by Tim Bobko, Tom O'Neill and Brian Schomburg.

Reception

In the March 1995 edition of Dragon (Issue #215), Rick Swan was ambivalent about the book, commenting "most of it's interesting, but there's nothing noteworthy." Swan didn't like the lack of a full adventure, and criticized the writing style as "awkward". He concluded by giving this book an average rating of 3 out of 6, calling it "an iffy buy."[1]
