Candython (23 pages, free/pay what you want at DriveThruRPG) is a fun fantasy adventure for D&D 5th edition. For the solo engine, I used several random Talisman the Board Game cards pulled from a deck of 475 cards. I also used a yes/no/maybe oracle. The RPG system I used was World of Dungeons (3 pages, same price at itch.io). Introduction - It takes place in a universe with routine interplanar travel. Teams of teenagers across the multiverse participate in a closed course trick-or-treat competition. The team that accumulates the most candy is given an unlimited supply for life. But neighborhood politics are the same in the Material plane as the Abyss, so be careful who you befriend. Background – My two wizards have the ability to summon up demons. It is the demons who cast the spells. So, armed with orange plastic trick or treat pumpkins, I have five PCs, two demons, and a torch bearer. The map has 12 locations. My solo engine created one more: a faerie mound with sidhe faeries.
Lots of wild stuff happened during this adventure. My group ran into three lemurs. My two demons tried to make peace with them, but that did not work. Combat started and my two demons died. At one house, my group was asked to create a particular can of play. My group did a musical number instead. The candy reward was disappointing. My thief had a chance to steal apple pies. It was funny that they could not be eaten. So, at one point, they did have 4.5 pounds of candy. However, the PCs ran into a group of imps summoning the devil at the end of the adventure. Lee, my fighter, armed with her Hammer of Light was unable to kill The Devil. The torch bearer (carrying all of the candy) and three other PCs were captured. They will now have to serve The Devil. The thief managed to escape. Give this a try! Maybe you will have better luck.
