History and development

Firebreather was a computer moderated, fantasy play-by-mail game.[1] It was published by Horizon Games.[1] Its initial two versions were open-ended, while the third version changed to closed-ended.[2] A subsequent fourth version returned to the open-ended format.[2]

Gameplay

Players led six character parties.[3] Character types included druids, dwarves, elves, knights, pilgrims, swordsmen, sorcerers, woodsmen, witches, and wizards.[3]

Reception

Reviewer Trey Stone, in the July–August 1997 issue of Paper Mayhem magazine stated that it "is not the perfect fantasy comp mod adventure game. But it is damn close. And as a game, I cannot recommend it more strongly".[4] Joey Browning reviewed the game in a 1995 issue of Flagship, providing a generally poor review, noting it was a good game for beginners. On a scale of ten, he rated the game a 3 for Anticipation, a 2 for Depth and Interaction, 8 for the Gamemaster, and a 4 for Value.[5]
