Reception

Dave Langford reviewed Nifft the Lean for White Dwarf #42, and stated that "In this garish hell, people suffer grotesque transformations and torments, described with vast relish and elaboration; the visceral variety of Shea's unpleasantness never flags, and the gaudy landscapes infect your dreams. I enjoyed this one."[1]
