I ran this tonight by myself as a level 2 Fighter and it was very fun! There were a couple of moments where I wasn't certain I was going to make it...

It took about 1.5 hours, but that was the luck in how I travelled. I would not expect that time to be the norm (I would expect longer).

I've played this twice. First time, my son & I rolled 2 lvl 1 characters (did not modify) and had a blast. Second time I played solo. Play the clickable PDF version vs. printing it off, or at least only print the maps. There was way too much flipping pages in the printed version and it gave me a headache. It plays exactly like a "Choose your own Adventure" book - if you're old enought to remember those. Overall great story and would defintely buy the next edition. Only recommendation is the epilogue is always the same regardless of what storyline I followed but it's wasn't a big deal.

I ran through this as an introduction to DnD with my fiance and it was great. She absolutely loved it and now she wants her own set of dice! It took us about 2.5 hours to run through. We can't wait for the next one to come out.

I ran through this last night. The video attached to the preview page is mine! It was a ton of fun. Really well done. The individual who converted it into a fantasy grounds module (Rob2e) watched and he said I took the absolutely shortest right possible! Even with that and moving extremely quickly it took me an hour and a half. I definitely think this would typically be 2-4 hrs. I literally only had one encounter, which was the boss battle! There was a ton I didn't explore and I absolutely look forward to replaying this several times. The author even has written in very specific details for different classes. Really well done. You also never need to search for links/pages. Rob did an excellent job of converting this. Just remember the link you need is always on the story entry you have open!

Really excited to roll up another character to try this again and can't wait for a sequel! Very unique module and well worth the price for me.

Very happy to see a 5E solo adventure. As a lifelong dm (never a player) I jumped at the chance to check this play format. I made the purchase with low expectations TBH. Full disclosure, I am about half way through the module and will update the review once complete.

The writing (superb), maps, and overall presentation are excellent. Just how well the product executes the solo adventure format is where the most recognition is deserved. Navigation through the story while making use of the maps works well.

I rolled up a 2nd level char and jumped into the adventure where I was rolling the dice quickly and often. Naturally, a solo adventure is going to have some limited narrative options, but I felt like my rolls and choices were meaningful.

For me, any future chapters/modules will be an automatic buy.

Another hidden feature, is this is a perfect format to introduce younger players to DnD. No need to worry about rulebooks and overwhelming choices if an experienced player guides them through this first adventure. I plan to run this as a guided DM for a 9yr old and will report back!

BTW, can I get the full map?

I never get the chance to play D&D. This book was a amazing supplement to my lack of gaming. The story is well written and the use of hyperlinks is clever and makings the game more immersive. I highly recommend trying this campaign out.

Fantastic adventure. Always being the one DMing it's nice to get to play from the player side of things for a change. Played this adventure with my girlfriend per the 2-player suggestestions and it worked very well. My one question is that the author mentions not doubling the enemies for the final boss, but does not suggest how to appropriately play the boss for 2 people. (I found that doubling the life and giving him a second initiative roll worked okay, but he was still downed fairly easily.) Thanks for this, looking forward to the sequal!

playing through this is very entertaining. I forgot how much I enjoyed the old solo adventures. Brings back very fond memories. Definitely worth the price. Ready for the sequel!

I played through this and loved every moment. It was challenging at points, which as a player of D&D I was looking for. It did feel a tad short, but since it is a solo adventure, I can make an allowance for that. It's replayability is great though, which I will do again and again with new characters I dreamed up.

Just played through it, was pretty awesome. I didn't print it (low on ink), but I could run the entire thing from PDF and using Roll20 as a Battlegrid. I might run through it again though and add more monsters...as I found the encounters very easy, including the end boss (I mean I did land a crit on it...)

Overall, it was very immersive and had a good story.

Note to author: There are more than a few typos and grammatical errors (such as "a apple")

I Went ahead and purchased and played through the game. I was able to be successful and complete it :D It was very fun and can definitely see the amount of replay-ability available especially when you change up class and races.
