both art and font work together with the text to make this entry clear and strong inany aspect. You can play it just after having read it, that's not a minor feat

Incredible visuals, and very atmospheric premise.

Only the 2nd map-as-cover I’ve seen in 100+ reviews, but man, what an absolutely gorgeous map it is! The writing & encounters make this dreamy, fairytale palace into a nightmare of fleshy gore- brilliantly done! Cramming this many interconnected rooms, this much loot, as well as a new spell, and a hoard of new enemies into just 3 pages is very impressive & is a great reminder of how you won judge’s pick last year. Phenomenal job!

Fantastic cover / map, I especially appreciate how all the routes between areas are represented clearly as well as being described in the text. I was initially a bit "ah this seems more normal than I'd expect" (based on last year) but then got to region 8, and was disabused of that notion.  Both big fights are great with really fun mechanics. My only criticism is that the introductory paragraph is a little clunky / confusing - the last sentence needs breaking up a bit at least - and there are some minor grammatical errors (mostly involving punctuation) throughout which jar a little given the overall quality of the writing. Really love everything else though!

The premise has such a strong soul to it that I find super-evocative. The map complements it so well, and the adventure is so interesting and fun (to the extent I was surprised so much was packed into so little space). I really want to get this one to my table

Very nice and effective cover/map combo. The layout and design is clean and clear. A strong entry.

I love your layout here, and the visual devices you use throughout. Dithering, but something punk about the typography. I also think the contents of the module itself are very appx. N, and very sci-fantastic, but also with some horror elements I appreciate! Great stuff.

This is excellent!! Lovely map, super interactive--a VERY complete adventure packed into a small space. I love the little snippets of dialogue included with some NPCs. Dripping with Appendix N style, but feels very video-gamey (in a fun way). One of my favorites so far.

For system, I think this would pair really nicely with VYRMHACK by Charlie Ferguson-Avery!

Really, really inspiring map! It will probably also inspire some nightmares with that moon face.

Great map with some really fun details on it! Clear location layout and descriptions make it really easy to run at the table I would imagine. Really like the Prismatic corruption table, some very creepy options. I think the throne room scene certainly feels like a very cool encounter, especially the phase two moment. Very cool adventure! ⭐

I remember your submission from last year and immediately recognized your style, which is super cool. A really good and complete adventure, full of exploration and fun things to interact with. It has the perfect balance of "bizarre" and "playable adventure," which isn't always the case in entries for this contest. One of my favorites this year.

Is that The Regent my boy from StS2? Really happy and excited to run this again! That last enouncter will be deadly and challenging. but it would be epic. Looking forward to explore the place with some of my friends!

Amazing map/cover! Cool adventure!

Fantastic combination of cosmic and body horror with weird fantasy! The denizens of the palace feel so unique, and having to go through the palace while dealing with characters being corrupted seems like an interesting challenge!

Awesome dual-use cover and design here. Really nice.

Immaculate vibes, dense and packed with astral goodness.

very good art and kind of a perfect way to end a campaign or make it a possibility of a greater foe. The moon and the star are giving me local 58 flashbacks in a good way.
