one of the more simply entries, and maybe for this reason one of the best. Hexmap over art is such a neat way to convey what hexcrawl _is_. Everything is both silly and dangerous, gamey and dramay. The consraints of this jam make this entry even better, cleaner, mor succint, more juicy. Dungeon map will be fom now a gold standard of mine. Thats a pearl.

Incredible use of space! Very succinct writing and the art is wonderful. That cover is amazing, I love a dungeon shaped like an animal head, great vibes!

A splendid hex crawl and dungeon. A nice McGuffin with a surprising mechanic underneath. I feel a party could spend quite some time on that island.

Absolute banger of an adventure, and looks easy to run too! The murrain mechanic is great for atmosphere as well as to keep players moving, and the layout here is incredibly sharp!

Great writing, layout and art. Also seems like it would be easy to bring to the table. Great work!

Really great details from the jump. The definition of the murrain is really helpful. I love that it starts in media res, and the horned A is  a nice touch. The other art is perfect. The playful quality is great. Prose has appropriately Bastion details and tone. Really nice work here.

Very well rounded, really love your style of art.

Wow, there's a whole lot of adventure packed into this wee package. I like the murrain mechanic to keep the characters pressing forward. I'd be curious to see how much exploration groups stop to do with death looming in the background. Great writing and execution here.

Thanks!

Love the oblique thinking on what could easily have been well-worn territory. The magic items in particular are lovely, particularly that amulet that protects you but might just undo you too! 

Another fine example of an entry doing a lot with a little. This is one of those you pick up and drop in wherever you like, whenever you need it.
