I'm preparing The Hidden Shrine of Tamoachan these days. There's not a lot of information out there on running this dungeon, which is why I was happy to find this guide.
The pros:
- Every monster, item, spell etc is referenced to its appropriate source (PHB or MM). This is hugely helpful, so big thanks to the author for this!
- Simple and short run-downs of each room. Many of the descriptions in the module are complicated, so it's very nice to have this as reference to double-check if you understood a room right.
Small cons:
- I was hoping for more input on how to run it. There are small suggestions sometimes, but personally I would welcome more ideas. When the author presents an idea they seem generally good, but they're few in number.
- The writing suffers a bit from typos and minor errors. This doesn't really detract from the overall value, but is a small thing to keep in mind nevertheless.
Overall I am very happy with my purchase, and I will definitely print this out and keep it handy when I run the dungeon. I am exciting to plan other dungeons from Yawning Portal and use this guide.
