Into the Mite Lair
This is a two level cave system housing jerlamain. It is a good example of a mediocre OSR module. Bob the Sage is looking for a magic sword. He sends the party to investigate some caves in the mountains. That’s … Continue reading
Man Eater
A desert wilderness adventure with a small dungeon and vengeance filled villain. A little work could turn it in to a very good adventure. It’s a story as old as time itself: a servant girl sleeps with the sheik, get … Continue reading

The Secret of Whispering Wood
This is an adventure framework using a Runquest clone system. It has that Runequest feel, of mystic bronze-age fantasy, but is quite a barebones product. It was a simple mission from the sage: gather some wood from a holy tree … Continue reading

BB1 – The Pearl of Pirates’ Cove
An old pirate lair in sea saves. The map design, while making sense, is not very interesting, and there’s not enough strange to explore. The detail comes in all the wrong places. It’s a stocking exercise, similar to B1. Arrrrrrr! … Continue reading

Song of the Beast-Gods
A Pathfinder module that attempts to invoke an old school Sword & Sorcery feel. The kick ass cover and name are a bit let down by the contents. What’s this … a Pathfinder module review?! Indeed gentle readers, but not … Continue reading

X14 Altanis – The Sunken City
This module most closely resembles a small wilderness area adventure with significant opportunity for exploration underwater. As a framework, its generally missing the detail that accompanies a location-based encounter, and further work by the DM to expand it will probably … Continue reading

Temple of the Ape
Tales of a tropical paradise! Beautiful native women! Mountain full of precious stones! Rumors of being torn limb from limb by bestial guardians are but a minor worry when the rewards are so great! This is an OD&D module and … Continue reading

Tales of the North – The Ordan Valley
This is a small regional module that details a home base in the Ordan valley and five short adventurers in this borderlands area. A small wilderness map is provided, about 12 miles by 12 miles, along with a wandering monster … Continue reading

The River Queen
This is a small wilderness area adventure that can probably be completed in one session. It has several touches of whimsy and classic fantasy which I really enjoyed, although the core villain fell flat for me. A river barge did … Continue reading
