This is one of the best constructed murder mystery adventures out there. It's very hard to balance a murder mystery for D&D 5e especially higher level with some of the skills in the system. This adventure does it PERFECTLY!
The plot is great, has an awesome twist and I suggest everyone looking for a mystery adventure to pick this up.
We ran this adventure on our podcast and you can check it out here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/scarab-of-death-part-one/id1378584440?i=1000442547726

Such a fun and unique Christmas adventure!!!
I usually look for easy one shots to run (I run A LOT of one shots) so the 66 pages scared me off last year but after really digging into this adventure I realized that not only is it worth it but also it's super manageable!
I ended up going with the "short romp" version and scrapped a lot of the adventure (went through the toy battlefield directly into the logistics department) and had the time of my life running this adventure! Don't be scared of the high page count as this adventure has multiple variations to run it (short, medium, long) to suit any type of table play!

This is one of my all time favorite one shots I've ever had the pleasure of running. It has some of the best investigation options I've seen in single session one shots which I love. It can be tricky making an investigation D&D one shot but Steve nailed it in this one. Not to mention the fantastic combat encounters and overall story!
10/10 definitely buy this one!

As a GM you can NEVER have too many puzzles! This supplement comes with all 100% top tier puzzles and is worth every single penny! Your players will love getting to a puzzle with a handout (I know mine do!) and these have a wide variety of puzzle types.
I ran the iron golem puzzle (the last one in the pack) for my podcast and it was so much fun watching my players scratch their heads to solve it!

This is THE tried and true go to Halloween one shot adventure! I've ran it twice now, once for my home game (candles, low lights, creepy music it was great!) and once for our podcast. Both times this adventure held up and gave myself and all of my players a fantastic night of fun!

We're gonna need a bigger boat!
This adventure from start to finish is action packed. My players absolutely LOVED going on a shark hunt and I absolutely LOVED throwing the twist at them! This adventure requires very little prep and is ready to be slotted into any campaign or just picked up and ran as a one shot!
You can hear my playthrough of this adventure on my podcast and YouTube channel One-shot Onslaught:

This massive (313 pages!) supplement is a must have for dms (as is the first). No matter what kind of campaign you are running you'll have simmering here to hell you out. I personally seem to always need more constructs and this did not disappoint there.

If you're the kind of person that just reads the first line or two of a review let me do you a favor and let you know that this was one of my top 5 favorite gaming sessions of D&D I've ran!
Honestly, when I ran this I was super nervous. Nervous because for this adventure to work you have to truly trust your players. I played this with a few of our patrons on Twitch so I prefaced it with saying something along the lines of "This very well may be a trainwreck, we'll see!" but wow was I wrong. The players absolutely crushed it and it was some of the easiest DMing I've ever done. To DM this adventure you really just need to do a quick read over it once and then you actually get to sit back quite a bit. I ended up playing three of the NPCs and the players all took up one of the others each. It worked out super well and I don't want to spoiler my runthrough but everyone had a ton of fun!

I love a good mystery adventure and this one delivers with plenty of red herrings and plot twists. The story is engaging and compelling and kept my players hooked and they always had a direction to go (a lot of mystery adventures leave the players scratching their heads and needing a nudge in my experience).
The ending revelation was a treat for me and my players. Would defintiely recommend this module to those looking for a mystery or even a horror module (it can definitely get creepy).

I'm a huge fan of Jeff and all of his work and this may be my favorite of his yet. This module has so much to offer.
- Easy hooks
- Great story/mystery
- Roleplay opportunities galore
- Some insanely fun combat
- Enough strange creatures to keep your players guessing
This module would be fantastic to run for a Halloween one shot or just anytime. If somehow you have yet to buy it (this thing has been on the hottest titles for so long and for a reason!) then you should grab it now!

Let me start off by saying I cannot believe this is Stacey's debut adventure. The quality of every single aspect of it is top notch and screams veteran publisher!
Pros: Beautiful layout, great maps, nice handouts, very helpful tables (loved the townsfolk table), super easy (and GREAT) story to follow/get the players to follow, very easy to prep (broken up in parts that are easy to follow), very fun and dynamic fights (can't stress this one enough, the fights are all so unique and FUN), handy stat blocks for all of the creatues involved at the end.
Cons: The only thing I can even think of to say is a "con" is that the handouts aren't available as their own documents so I had to use a snippet tool to screenshot for my players, not a dealbreaker what-so-ever.

I have long awaited an item such as this! My players always ask what loot creatures have and I never have anything fun/interesting to offer them until now. Not only does this product offer mundane/useless items but it has variants for most things to use them as other tools (i.e. the Hippogryph claws)
If you're a DM you should grab this!
