I read it and thought it was really cool. I really liked the context of the game; simple, brief and evocative. The art is also quite evocative. I felt like playing it. ^^
When I first read it, I think I identified two errors in the text:
On page 8, it says to buy additional equipment with 20 Coins. On the next page, it says that the characters start with 3d10 Coins. I imagine the first one is correct because it also appears in the additional equipment section (page 11).
Raised Skeleton (page 40) has the peculiarity of the Striga's legs.
Regarding the mechanics, I was unsure whether the armor values aren't too high to the point of slowing down the game, especially for the bosses, but I suppose the damage explosion and the damage advantage rules can balance this out. I need to test it out to evaluate it in practice.
I especially liked that the game has an open license. I hope to do something for Striga in the near future. ^^
Hi Bruno, first and foremost, thank you for all the kind words, they really mean a lot! Also, thank you for pointing out the errors! I will be fixing them in the 1.1 PDF of the game as soon as possible.
Regarding the "page 8 Coins"; the 20 Coins for Additional Equipment are a plus, you get them in addition to your "starting 3d10 Coins". So basically, you get to spend 20 coins before the adventure starts, and then you get an additional 3d10 Coins when your adventure starts. Hope that helps! I will probably add this to a FAQ document, thanks for pointing out!
Regarding the open license, I'm very happy you liked it! I am also considering the possibility of running a jam for STRIGA in the near future, so in that case, see you there!

Thanks for the clarification, Novecento.
About the jam, it would be a great motivation to produce something for Striga. ^^
