We loved that this was an ode to classic fantasy like many others here! It warms us to read like a hot cup of tea and speaks to the classic tales of both adventures past and folktales past. Incredibly easy to use and read! READ THIS!!

The idea of an enchanted magnifying glass that changes the size of anything that passes in front of it is brilliant. There's a lot of variety and I like that there's a lot of interesting threads for players to tug at, if they choose to go looking for them.
The drawing of the frog on page 4 is very well done.
I actually just watched the film of the same name for the first time about a week ago!

Honey! (Knave/OSE/Shadowdark)Fantastic adventure! I really like the NPCs, with good short descriptions and actionable information that hints the personality and motivation. BTW, we both have myconids in our submissions, even some get lost! :-D

Caverns of the Sacred FireWeylon the King of Crocodiles is a great swampy character encounter. Would have liked to see some more treasure, perhaps, but I suppose swamps aren't famously loaded with wealth!

The Knacker's YardYour NPCs are fire! Buckingham Cragglethatch is a brilliant name. I second Suavek's comment about the Mythic Bastionland vibe. This would be fun for Knave but I'm going to keep it tucked away to use with Mythic when I finally get a chance to run it. Excellent work!

Cave of CoagulationAny game text that implies Rowdy Roddy Piper exists in its world somewhere will always be a home run for me.

Secret of the Crystal GateReally evocative work, as soon as I saw an odd knight it immediately gave me the vibe of Mythic Bastionland. Including quotes from the NPCs is a great touch, it really helps with showing who these people are. Maps and drawings are also really neat. I only wish font was a little different (but that's very minor), and I wish there was some indication as to the scale of distance between POI. However, the map included is really neat, looks like something PCs might find in game
