Pretty basic and straighforward but clearly written and instantly playable. Light tone.

This is inventive and original but it wasn't my particular taste. The adventure tries hard to create realistic goals for demons with options for playing the factions off against each other and for lots of player agency. Ultimately I just found both the character rules and the adventure a little heavy going.

Not my taste. Lots of lore prose and not much adventure content.

One page dungeons are fab and this is one of the best. Everything about it- the art, the setting and the encounters are evocative clear and immediately gameable.
Would be nice to have the 5e stat blocks but you can't have everything.

I really like these. Not too wordy (almost all fit on one page) and specific, usable scenarios that can be dropped into any game.

As a free product it's fine. Perhaps the complete setting would feel more useful but I didn't get enough of a strong sense of place or easily gamable material to want to buy.

Nice, simple, clearly explained, gameable scenarios that can be easily dropped in to any campaign. A bit wordy is the only complaint.

Good quality for a PWYW adventure. Nice clear premise, good map, not a one-dimensional scenario, doesn't treat the DM like an idiot or over-describe.

A nice little adventure, suitable for a one shot and fully stated out. Good art to accompany it. The usual problems of adventure league type stuff apply: very linear and simple with little scope for player agency. Some mechaics for the amount of travelling involved, through an exotic location, would have really spiced things up.

Nice little dungeon. Well explained and fully detailed for 5e. Could have been expressed more concisely

Keep in mind that the entries are amateur, so quality varies wildly. I've kept about 1/3 of the entries. I think the competition is a great idea.
I must say I find the judges scoring, each year, surprisingly inconsistent with some of the high scored entries being unusable; but the winners this year are both excellent- worth the download alone and better than a lot of the paid content on here.
I'd love to see a fleshed out 4/5 page version of the winners each year.

There is a lot of free stuff in this box: class options, spells, monsters and variant rules. It's most suited to those who like trying out other's homebrew options or for sparking ideas.
The big issue with the character and weapon options (and the spells, to an extent) is power creep. If you were using these options you'd need to serverely ramp up the difficulty of your adventures to avoid them beign an absolute cakewalk.

Thanks for taking the time to look through my stuff.
As you say, there is a lot of power creep you are right. I believe there are several reasons why I ended up erring on the side of being too strong. However. am already working on a revision, which will take another look over the particularly egregious offenders. I'm even going to be running more playtests to figure out which numbers I want to dial down, and by how much. I should have a new version out in a few months.
thanks. |

A solid, workable adventure with maps and full creature stats. Given it's free, it's excellent value.

I'm rating this as a free resource. The other review paid for it, so I can see why they'd be hacked off.
This is a collection of entries to a competition for one-page dungeons. As such the standard is variable and amateur. I'd say about half of them are of some use and all of them require work (at least stating, usually more) to make useable.
All that said, it's lovely to have such an eclectic source of ideas available for free.

Useful and clear. Does exactly what it says on the tin.
