This module is of fair quality for the price.

As others mentioned, there is the railroading issue, which also comes into play at the start of the adventure. In the set up the adventurers are hired as bodyguards, but they are not paid for their services in the text. It can be worked around (just traveling together/ the village head will pay you) but makes one feel like they are missing something when it never shows up again.

The initial combat is quite memorable and its almost worth running just for that novelty. The chase is problematic but can be massaged or narrated through for time constraint reasons, as this did run long.

The final combat also could use a bit of massaging with DM fiat, but that will depend a lot on your party.

The being linked to adventures in other tiers is problematic as my players felt like they were missing parts of the story running it alone.

This module has a notable amount of railroading (the pseudo-chase where the flowers always get away), but otherwise runs fine.

I don't know how I feel about story awards for the player and not the character. I like the idea of having varying encounters based on other taken actions, but this feels like it's breaking some wall.

One of the story awards (the one for the first encounter) is unintuitive for the players to acquire, but the NPCs in the village can prod them to take that action.

Great little module with many good opportunities for role play and combat, with some skill based challenges to keep the party engaged.

Be prepared to be very descriptive in the chase scene to get the party engaged as it can get repetitive if they struggle with the checks.

There's a lot of substance to the story despite being such a fun module and my party really enjoyed it, especially the final battle. All in all a very fun little module.

Ran this scenario last night. Players had a great time! Very well balanced in terms of combat and role playing opportunity. Great scenario!
