  • I like the concealed trap mechanics. This is a novel approach, which I haven't seen before. It is a little unclear in 'E.' if these are Healing Potions to be found as treasure by the players or potions that can be used by the monsters. I always like to see treasure chests with something other than treasure in them (like 'G.')! The falling block trap (see 'L.') could prevent the Hero's escape from the dungeon if the invincible Gargoyle were to stand in the passage between the Heroes and the exit doorway . The mechanics in Einar's Library are well thought out, and well explained (given the complexity of what is going on) - well done!
  • Such a clever quest with many interesting approaches to traps throughout. I love the idea that the players can't talk to each other in the library! The route is very nicely considered - with great use of hidden spaces to explore as well. A great quest, well done!
