This resource takes all the guess work out of writing and generating new cities and settlements in my ttrpg games! Its so easy to use and really breaks down each section in an easy to understand manner. Great book!!

The setup is very good and straightforward. I got a bit confused in the investigative part, with the roles of the children and could not entirely understand the role of the travelling wizard. I think that could have been excluded, enabling to focus more on the characters in Saltmarsh (I did that when I DMed this module). Two very nice female NPCs: Hollylove and Rynn both remained as recurring NPCs in and around Saltmarsh in our adventures! I found the graphical rendition of the maps very minimalist, but I understand that's not the main forcus of the story.

It gets the job done but could use some improvements and I don't recommend a DM running DotMM just using these without checking them and making changes

[I complain at the start of this review and then say nice things at the end]

There are things in the descriptions that the players would have no way of knowing, one example being (warning spoilers) on Level 1, room 27 the Demi-plane description tells the players that the Halaster they are seeing is a simulacrum!? How on earth would the player characters be able to know this and it could cause real problems if a DM just reads these aloud without checking!

Also, I'm not even halfway through the descriptions for the first level and I must have seen the word "testament" used at least 10 times already. I understand that you want to make the descripitons interesting and often have to discuss things that hint at past events but using it in every. single. description. is driving me mad and will be noticed by the players.

I also get the impression these were made using some form of AI (the cover clearly being AI generated supports this) due to some of the descriptions using very similar wording with the defining details swapped out (ie testament). However, if the person who created this was just having to re-use terms because they had so many to get through then I get why you did this but it does become obvious pretty quick to both the DM and the players.

[Nice things V see I said I would]

HOWEVER.

This is something DotMM doesn't come with at all and for a mega-campaign with a million rooms that all very unique and definitley need describing to the players it is useful. As a DM I personally don't want to have to re-read the DM-only contents of the room mid-session while my players wait on me, and have to figure out what the players can and can't know/see when they enter it. My worry would be that I may give away hidden details and at the very least I wouldn't be able to make the description evocative or flow smoothly. Instead it would come out like a list of instructions of what is in the room which would really ruin the immersion.

Therefore, I do encourage the purchase of this Room Description pdf as it is the only one of its kind currently. In truth I highly doubt anyone will try to make a competitor to this (there still is currently only one companion guide for the entire of DotMM to my knowledge) but be weary of the devils bargain here that you will need to go over these and edit as needed. I personally don't have a massive problem with this as it allows me to go over the rooms one final time before a session to really get them in my recent memory but the repetition and testament stuff is driving me a little mad ironically.

Przygodę zaadptowałem do swojej kampanii, więc niektóre bolączki opisane w poprzednich komentarzach mi odeszły. Moim zdaniem bardzo fajny dungeon crawl na początek przygody albo jako gotowa wstawka (jak w moim przypadku) pojedynczej lokacji do kampanii. Nie ma wielu problemów, a i materiały są dostępne (można bez problemu znaleźć mapy googlując oryginalny angielski tytuł).

An okay adventure for new dms but needs experience dms to adjust it correctly. This module has gotten Killer DM TPK vibes lately and I sat in on it as a very weak group. TPK. The new DM was running as is and was handling some of our wrenches in the plot well. But. The encounters are hard plus. Some notes needed to added to allow for short and long rests. Which my group forgot since it is a 2 hour module. And the the combat encounters need to be totally reworked. Drop at least one cultists from each encounter. Change the Sea Spawn and Deep Scion hit pionts.

Unfortunately, while this product has a couple of good ideas, it is a lacking product. I do applaud the effort of the author but there are shortcomings in this product that are hard to overlook (you can see more in the discussion section). I suggest to people to take the advice of the author and look for the free sample and judge whether this product is good for their table or not. If you find that this product could work for you, then by all means go for it as the author put effort in this. The good part: There is advice in the end of the product about scaling difficulty and use of monsters of various roles. This advice is useful.

Il Palazzo Dimenticato - La Maledizione dell'Impiccato è un'opera originale e profonda. Impaginata e scritta in modo impeccabile. Si adatta sia a giocatori esperti che a nuovi avventurieri. Un po' per tutti ma in particolare per chi cerca storie avvincenti in ambientazioni dark-fantasy. Consigliata. ― Azarneth

I ran this adventure on Fantasy Grounds for a couple of days, and the players and I were pleased with it. Excellent encounters and a simple nautical combat system were a hit with the players. Fully explaining "how to run" in Fantasy Grounds made this a breeze. I also appreciate the scaling of encounters, which made sense and did not diminish the challenge.

I think if you need a good filler adventure or a change of pace, this is the adventure to run. Cheers!

Ich als neue DM habe das Abenteuer mit ein paar aus meiner Gruppe gespielt um in die 5e-Regeln zu schnuppern und dafür war es einfach super. Es deckt alles ab, was einem am Anfang wichtig ist, ohne zu erschlagen. Mit passenden Tipps und Hinweise von den Autoren. Absolut empfehlenswert für NeueinsteigerInnen.

Quick, fun, lighthearted adventure. Easy to run and finish in one session.

Esse pacote de livros e muito em conta! Gosto do material do Rafael Castelo Branco por sua experiência como mestre, seu amplo conhecimento de edições anteriores e sua capacidade de recupar informações das edições anteriores adpatando-as para as regras atuais. Nesse pacote tem de tudo um pouco. Um ótimo guia para quem quer criar, modificar ou definir a CR de um monstro - tudo muito bem explicado e com exemplos. O guia para itens mágicos dá uma boa revisão no assunto com sugestão de criação de lojas de itens mágicos e seus estoques, materiais para criar itens mágicos e outras informações úteis. O guia de armadilhas é meu favorito, não só por esmiuçar a regra de detectar armadilhas e criar suas pŕóprias, mas pela lista de novas armadilhas muito boas. Finalmente o guia para testar moral, recupera uma velha regra da 2 edição trazendo-a atualizada para a 5 edição. Além de bem explicado, só o trabalho de calcular a moral de cada criatura do MM já vale o preço. Pacote com valor muito bom para quem quer ampliar sua mesa de jogo.

Morale is really an old rule, more than 30 years ago... The fact is that it was a functional DM support rule for those moments when the doubt remained: would these NPCs/creatures surrender. It's easy to decide when we think about an ordinary human, but difficult when it's an alien mind, such as an Aboleth. At these times, the moral rule is a good guide. The book is simple, direct and very cheap. Just the work of calculating the morale of MM's creatures and putting them in an easy-to-consult table at the end is worth the price. That said, excellent value for money. Ideal for DMs who want more realism in their game.

Thank you for this adventure! It was the first time my five years old played DnD, and he had a blast! We played as a family together, it was a great Sunday activity.

We had so much fun playing this! The concept is simple--which makes it easy to insert things into the game as a DM (like an over-the-top candle). If I were to go back, I would have realized my players were too powerful, so I should have beefed up the big bad or played with 1st or 2nd lvl PCs.

This is by far one of my favorite introductory adventures for PC's who are new to a 5e format. Every playthrough is different, and the balance of exploration and combat is perfrect as a way to explore the proper way to play 5e. I've run it 3 times now for brand new players and had significantly different and enjoyable games.

This is a must have adventure for DMs introduing very new players.
