I would give the story 2 1/2 stars (it's good enough for what it is, but certainly isn’t exceptional), but the production values (this is a full cast audio drama) I would give a 4 1/2. In that respect it’s very well done.
A great first adventure. Some humour and some horror. There are some errors with one of the maps, but those are easily rectified.
Summer 2007. Wizards had decided to move away from print media and yanked the license for Dragon / Dungeon magazines from Paizo, so the company decided to use the open game license to make its own adventure path rolling everything into one monthly release. I had been very eagerly awaiting the launch of the first issue, and strolled into a game store asking for this new-fangled thing called "Pathfinder." The guy who ran the local shop had no clue what I was talking about, and assured me I must ha...
THis is in no way a book to just sit down and read. It is however a finely crafted tool to use in Dungeons and Dragons. I am the DM in my group and this starter adventure was great. My players loved the base (Sandpoint) and the NPCs (the priest, sherrif, ranger, etc). They were immediately sucked into the game. I like the supplmental information, so I suppose the information on the city and such could be considered fictional non-fiction. Its a great source for D/D

I've run other systems: Werewolf, Vampire, Call of Cthulhu, Paranoia, etc. but all of the s...
This adventure is a good kick-start to a low-level Pathfinder campaign. (Or it can be used in any campaign setting with some tweaking.) It offers a good start for the campaign, and it is a good introduction to Pathfinder since it was among the first modules written and assumes little to no existing knowledge of the game world. There is also a downloadable pdf player's guide for this module specifically that has some details on characters, the country where it is set, etc, which can help your pla...
Reread: April 2020 - 5★Can You tell I never get tired of these, the first two are spectacular 🤌🏻Reread: Feb 2019 - 5★ 2012/13 - 5★ I listened to this over and over this year, I don't even know how many
A fantastic adventure that will renew your love (re: your players' fear) of goblins.Some of the NPCs get only a stat line (i.e. Human Male Level X Class Y) and that can make for some awkward encounters, but the story is very good.
