I played this advendture for my first time as a DM. I ran it with two PCs at level 5 with the sidekick. This story is intriguing and my players had a great time! The adventure is roleplay heavy, but has plenty of places to add combat if you wish. I found it easy to read through the provided sheets and found each NPC had enough information provided that I did not feel lost, but could still have creative freedom. I'm excited to play this again with a solo player soon.
