Until about 2005, Project: Redcap solicited product reviews through a Web form. Now, we use the Wiki instead. Here are the comments from the former Project: Redcap site:

'''FAQ Rating: ** (6 reviews; 1 *, 3 **, 2 ***, 0 ****)'''
* Not, bad, not wonderful. Got it at half price and didn't regret it.
* The screen is useful, the Grogs funny and the other texts wonderful
* A more beautiful storyguide's screen than this of the 3rd edition.
* Some reprints of articles in old White Wolf mags, some random essays and several examples of interesting grogs. Mostly superseded or repeated elsewhere.

* ''The [[Stormrider]]'' is a later version of a "jump-start kit," which replaced the articles on the Order of Hermes with a scenario
* Several of the articles were expanded in the ''[[Order of Hermes]]'' supplement.
