Publication history[edit]

In the 2014 book Designers & Dragons: The '80s, game historian Shannon Appelcline noted that Steve Jackson Games decided in the early 1990s to stop publishing adventures, and as a result 'SJG was now putting out standalone GURPS books rather than the more complex tiered book lines. This included more historical subgenre books. Some, such as GURPS Camelot (1991) and GURPS China (1991), were clearly sub-subgenres, while others like GURPS Old West (1991) and GURPS Middle Ages I (1992) covered genres notably missing before this point.'^[3]^:45

GURPS Voodoo: The Shadow War is one such standalone book, a 128-page softcover book by C.J. Carella, with interior art by Shea Ryan, and cover art by Tim Bradstreet, published by SJG in 1995.

Reception[edit]

In the October 1995 edition of Dragon (Issue #222), Rick Swan noted that this book followed in the footsteps of other supernatural role-playing games like Vampire: The Masquerade and Werewolf: The Apocalypse, but said, 'For a zombie-come-lately, however, GURPS Voodoo has a lot going for it, due mostly to the smarts of designer C.J. Carella. Not only does Carella know GURPS like Bill Gates knows computer code [...] he has a knack for blending diverse source material into a seamless whole. It’s hard to tell where fact ends and fantasy begins, which adds to Voodoo’s unsettling tone.' Swan did think that the lengthy history of voodoo might turn off some players, 'But scholarly players should be impressed.' However, Swan felt that the book's diverse subject matter and large geographical reach spread the material too thin, saying, 'GURPS Voodoo needs less sprawl and more focus. I wish Carella would’ve confined the game to a small, self-contained area, like Haiti. It would’ve been easier to manage, and a lot more frightening; imagine being trapped on a tiny island teeming with spirits, clawing through steaming jungles while snarling zombies staggered from the brush. A claustrophobic setting such as this would’ve really turned up the tension.' Nonetheless, Swan concluded by giving this book an excellent rating of 5 out of 6, saying, 'The rich characters, eerie atmosphere, and slow-burn spiritualism add up to a riveting experience.'^[4]
