The maps are incredible.  Awesome treat to behold.

This is really fun and the art is great. I've got to say though if I were Panzanthazar I'd be happy to be shot of that coin!

Cool ideas, well written and illustrated. The title has been interpreted well.

Charming and beautifully illustrated. This would be a great scenario for players of any age; exactly the kind of scenario I'd use to introduce children to RPGs (with only minor adjustments). Nice work!

A fabulous fantasy adventure jam packed with great maps, magic items and reality warping effects. I loved how many challenges that entering the tower could present to players in so few words.

The cutaway map of the tower is phenomenal. Lots of high fantasy going on here. Very nice. Love the layout and all the art. Lots of perilous situations.

Absolutely love the art style. You did a great job of communicating a complete adventure very succinctly. I love the skeleton pirates.

This is one of my faves! So much to check out and explore, I feel spoiled that there’s 3 maps included. Really great job, saving to run with my group!

I really like the weird and zany vibe from all the chaos! Amazing maps and great layout! The cast of NPCs are great!

The maps were all great, and the story is a lot of fun, but the real stars here are your NPCs- I loved every single one; from the spellsquibs to the Skeleton Crew.

I also enjoyed the chaos table. Excellent adventure from start to finish.

I love the sense of fun in this adventure.

It's also immensely playable. A GM would need maybe a minute or two to familiarize themselves with what's going on before jumping right in.

I had to force myself to stop admiring the wizard's tower map (awesome details!) so I could read the rest of this great adventure. The cursed coin is a truly nasty (by which I mean inspired) magic item. My favorite part, though, is the skeleton pirates: chaotic hirelings who get drunk on lagoon water. Well done.

This was definitely made for Knave.  Great art cool tables. A really interesting location. You packed a lot in. 

Great job.

The Art and the chaos table is awesome. The adventure have a good pirate magician vibe. Gona try it.

It seems like it was fun to write. It certainly seems like it would be fun to run!

Excellent, everything needed in a short adventure- clean layout, strong start, good maps and a pretend phoenix in a cage! I wish I could put together modules like this!

Really enjoy the maps – especially the spire map has so much character! 

Really lovely pirate adventure. Very cool that it’s a self-contained hex, ready to be thrown into any hex crawl.

A really compact module with a lot to do and some really fun maps.

Loved the adventure!!! And loved that it is for Knave 2e. The pirate crew seems to be a really funny bunch and a complete wild card, wonder how the PCs will handle them

Wonderful use of space and a fun adventure. What program did you draw your maps in? They all came out beautifully!

Micron pens and paper, actually. Thank you for taking a look.
