I have enjoyed playing this twice so far. Just wish it had been longer. The bite size shortness might actually be a selling point for some people. I would have happily forked out for a print on demand copy of this adventure.

I also enjoyed playing this adventure considerably more than the other Traveller solo adventure I found on Drive Thru, and unlike that one, this one is free!

My review is basically what Mike G. wrote over 6 years ago (see below), but the publisher still hasn't corrected / updated. I'd give it 2 stars for the unresolved technical issues which makes it largely unreadable, but it was free, so it gets a 3.

An Endzeitgeist.com review

This adventure clocks in at 32 pages, 1 page front cover, 1 page editorial/ToC, leaving us with 30 pages of content, so let’s take a look!

Now, first things first: This acts as an introductory adventure for the Twilight Sector and also as a solo-adventure – not “solo”, as one GM and player, but as “choose your own adventure”-solo!

The pdf assumes the use of the Mutant Creation rules – you can play a Mod SIM (scientifically induced mutation, weak social standing -1) or a Natural mutant (NM, weak social standing -2); with Resis Capra, we get a sample pregen for your use if you don’t have the time or inclination to make one yourself. A d66 table for negative and positive mutations is provided, including the respective descriptions.

Upon reading these, you will, alas, notice that this was, obviously, the freshman offering of the company: The white borders around images have not been cropped, partially making text jumbled or overlapping it. E.g. the number for entry #6 is, annoyingly, hidden by an artwork. Also slightly annoying - #49 is basically: Try again! That could be in the respective failure conditions right there sans flipping pages. Entry number 50 is also completely obscured by the b/w-map. And no, I will not tell you what this adventure is about – it makes no sense to cover its details, considering that any coverage would SPOIL the adventure for the only person who’d undertake it. Suffice to say, there is some mystery set up for future scenarios…

Conclusion:

Editing and formatting are okay, if not perfect – particularly the images overlapping text is annoying indeed. Cartography and interior artworks are b/w and nice. Layout adheres to a 1-column b/w-standard and the pdf internally hyperlinked – clicking on “go to #X” will put you at the respective entry.

Michael J Cross and Matthew Hope deliver a per se nice, unpretentious solo-adventure here; while it’s not exactly mind-boggling, it makes for a solid form of entertainment for a while. That being said, the overlay issues are really grating and drag down the experience a bit. At the same time, this is FREE. And honestly, as a FREE supplement, this is worth checking out if you need your RPG-fix and are in the mood for some scifi/space opera action. Hence, my final verdict will clock in at 3 stars.

Endzeitgeist out.

It is a very good intro to the Twilight Sector of space but some errors have been made in its publishing. Page 14 has an image overshadowing some words that can be easily fixed. However, the final page the Map not only overshadows but blocks the final entry (#50) as well as the Epilogue. This map should be on a separate page as well as a map legend and description.

This is one of the few solo adventures i have ever seen put out for Traveller, and for that it gets a thumbs up. I found it fairly easy to follow along, although the plot was a little on the thin side. The introductory material to the Twilight Sector was useful.

ANOTHER downloadable winner for me! this is a fine introductory scenario for solo play, and could be modified for use with players and a GM

A great solo game traveller systen for Twilight Sector have fun with it...
