So, one of my favorite websites just ran a story on Telepath RPG: Servants of God, in which they give their early impressions of the demo.

QuoteBrain-Bending Bishops' combat isn't immediately gripping, with early battles acting as tutorials with no variety or threat. There's depth in there though and a sense that the scenarios are so finely balanced as to be more like a puzzle than a tactical field of play.

The world isn't another take on Tolkien, with a Middle Eastern flavour that really ruins my bishop references but laces through the steampunk filling rather well. Be warned though – there's a lot of text even at the early stages, introducing characters and concepts at a fair old pace. Like I said earlier, I should be in my element: turn-based combat and a new world to explore with no goblins or rats in sight.

Check it out.
