Classic Shadowdark hex-y dressings and cool cover art! Really Drunk is a great trait name. The threads of night are awesome, and the risk of becoming a Thrall is a lot of fun. The CHA boon "spells" is a neat potential reward!

I got a little confused on the overview page and by the map. It makes sense, but there are many boxes, arrows, and maps with multiple perspectives. I noticed the adventure Overview states that "Korreg Lem has[Leffa] in their basement, [...]" However, Visha Pereem is the school with Leffa! They are identical, so I can see why it was mixed up, haha. 

The whole concept is really fun and well-executed!

Turning sesame street into an eldritch blood ritual was not on my game jam bingo card...but I'm so glad you went there! I think it a bit too linear as it stands; but the themes, your color choices, layout, monster design, and everything else are all very solid. Thats my only real nitpick! Great work!

Very solid! This has to be the most ShadowDark adventure I've seen for the jam so far. Definitely less gonzo (which is also awesome, its just good to see some variety on the gonzo spectrum.)

I really like the near-identical room keys for the two schools, really creepy moment for the players to cotton on to as they explore. Smart players will realise the school of Korreg Lem is not a great place to return Leffa to. I think you did a really good job incorporating the inspiration into tangible gameplay with the platform mechanics.

Overall a very measured distillation of the NES games you were given, well done!

I love how you incorporated the Sesame Street game! Poor Grover getting turned into an evil entity, lol.  I really like the blue/black pixelated layout and the blue yarn attacks, creepy.

A short adventure, but pretty interesting. Makes great use of the inspiration, Grover as an eldritch horror is just too good. The rival schools are a bit reminiscent of the gangs in River City Ransom as well. Like the cult politics and intrigue involved.

I liked the wizard schools, are cults, are both unknowingly worshiping the same entity.
