i would give it a 4.5/5 stars if i was able to. But this product is what one would call a drug sample. In the way they give you some for free so you keep coming back for more.

I usually DM my family-party (partner and two kids) very much on the fly, so it was great to find this straightforward side-quest to just slot right into our bigger campaign. I used a hook that they met a hunter who was tracking a wild boar and it lead them to the tomb. We really enjoyed the simple traps and especially gathering the spoils! Thank you!

Really loved doing this adventure with mostly new players! They had a blast and it was easy to add in content that fit it to the world we were playing in. Couldn't recomend this more! (also loved the printable maps they were so helpful!)

This is a good little package, with attractive maps, traps and tomb. While it is short, it'd be easy to build on its framework, adding more detail to suit one's own campaign. I think it's probably one of the most useful freebies I've gotten, so thank you, R&D Adventures. It certainly makes me curious about their other products.

A small location, great for dropping into just about any campaign.

I used this mini dungeon to practice DMing for the first time. I've been a player for a while, but never went 'behind the screen' before. I absolutely loved it! It was easy to understand and follow, gave me a good mental image (from the cover picture, maps and description) that I could describe to the players, and had very clear instructions, loot, and encounter information to work with, as well as flexibility for working with different levels (between 1 and 5). It is, of course, only a little delve, but it was a great chance to insert an interesting encounter en route to somewhere else, and I simply added an item to one of the chests to create a plot-hook to go forward with.
Despite my imperfect first try as a DM, my players enjoyed it and found it well balanced - my usual DM even asked me where he could get a copy!

I picked up both versions of the "Forgotten Tomb." My only complaint was that I could not get a decent 200% print out using my Adobe Reader. I would recommend including a full one-inch grid printable for us poorer GMs. Other than that, a great scenario for training new players of any system. PS, I'm a Rolemaster GM and this was easily convertible from DnD.

Perfect for my needs of filling a sandbox: Wonderful presentation, succint descriptions, clear and to the point.
Bear in mind this is a small, couple page product. If you're looking for something more filled out this may not be for your tastes.

A beautiful presentation, but this item is a little too small and had too little information to be helpful for me.

I am giving the highest score to this adventure since it fulfills what it offers: an introductory adventure to be played in a single session.
I tried it with my gaming group composed with new and veterans, this is the second adventure with which we are starting our all-new campaign and the story plays quite well. The adventure introduces the PC to one of the most recurrent aspects of D&D: the traps, and it does quiet well.
I loved the fact the product comes with two maps, one inteded to players and other intended to the Dungeon Master with the location of traps, monsters and other features.

It's nice encounter for an hour or so, it properly introduces combat and traps to beginers but it could maybe use some minor social/diplomatic event and/or a travel sequence so that new players get an idea of how to do other things outside of dungeons.

I tried this one shot with two different groups and both cross gross groups really enjoyed it. The encounter was short straight forward and the introduction of the skeletons was really fun for me as the GM--one group discovered them by proximity and the other by yelling to party members. If you're looking for something fun and a challenge with traps I'd recommend this prosecution product. And the map is clear and straight forward.

Just getting in to D&D 5th edition and running a gang of noobs through a different adventure (than this one), I threw this encounter in as a hidden area for the guys and they loved it. A single chamber with a bunch of traps and a handful of skeletons- nothing massively different but it worked a treat, the guys loved the getting there as much as the adventure- I hid the Forgotten Tomb in the bottom of a well.
Still I also managed to get a few hits in, with the traps mainly- one of the guys spent more or less the entire encounter in the bottom of a pit. A nice encounter, well put together, and enough to make me rush out and buy the other 5th edition adventure collections here.

Hi Paul, Thank you so much for your review. It’s not only valuable to know a little about how you used the encounter, but to know a little about what happened when it was played is really enjoyable to hear as well. We hope you enjoy our other encounters and adventures as much as you did this one. |

I originally downloaded this just for the trap ideas but after reading it, fell in love with the entire setting. I ran it as a one off for a friend who played 3.5 & another friend who was new to D&D. It was a fantastic time. I enjoyed it a lot. The traps were great, the maps were great. I did make some adjustments to fit my group but I believe it would have ran smoothly if I kept it exactly as is and just played it.
This is one of the best products I have ever downloaded from this website. I would use it again without question. Truly excellent.
