An excellently written adventure with polished graphic design that stands out as professional and immersive. The maps and artwork are human made and visually engaging, which adds to the overall quality of the product. It is clear a lot of thought went into the layout and presentation.

The plot focuses on mystery and investigation, with a strong supernatural theme tied to the sea. It’s a straightforward story but has enough depth and twists to keep players engaged. The NPCs are well written and feel meaningful to the narrative. I especially loved how the locations tie directly into the story, such as the chapel and lighthouse. Every area feels purposeful, and the pacing encourages exploration and role-playing without dragging.

The lighthouse scene with the shadows creates a great sense of tension and challenge. The Enchanted Lantern was a clever addition, providing a unique item that is both integral to the plot and useful in gameplay. The final encounter with Neris is intense and provides a satisfying conclusion to the adventure.

The appendix is a nice touch, offering extra villagers and all the stat blocks to help a DM adapt to player unpredictability. It’s clear this module is designed with the DM in mind, making it easy to run while still allowing room for creativity. The adventure is polished, engaging, and enjoyable!

The Good

This adventure offers an atmospheric and engaging adventure set in the haunted coastal village of Vikstead. The rich narrative and detailed settings, from the Silent Docks to the eerie Lighthouse, provide a captivating backdrop for players. The adventure's structure, broken down into clear and manageable scenes, ensures a smooth progression and helps Dungeon Masters keep the story engaging and organized. The inclusion of a compelling villain, Neris the Sea Hag, adds depth and intrigue, making the climactic confrontation both thrilling and memorable. Additionally, the adventure's flexibility allows it to be seamlessly integrated into any campaign setting, providing a versatile and enjoyable experience for both new and experienced players.

The Bad

While the adventure excels in atmosphere and narrative, the complexity of managing the various scenes and encounters may be challenging for new Dungeon Masters. The detailed descriptions and numerous NPCs require careful attention to maintain the flow and coherence of the story. Additionally, the high level of strategic combat and the need to utilize specific items like the enchanted lantern may pose difficulties for less experienced players. Despite these challenges, the overall design and immersive experience of "Beneath the Tidal Veil" make it a highly rewarding adventure that is well worth the effort.

Overall

It is a richly detailed and immersive adventure that offers a memorable and engaging experience for both players and Dungeon Masters, making it a standout addition to any D&D campaign.
