Reception

Jerry Epperson reviewed Creatures Fair & Fell for Fantasy Gamer magazine and stated that "Creatures Fair and Fell is definitely usable as a supplement for YRS, It fills this role quite well and gamemasters can learn a good lesson in character design by studying the NPC examples, but it is not up to the usual high standards of its company's other products. I can guardedly recommend it to all of those with an interest in Ysgarth material, but others will find little of use for general ."
