So far, I've only tested it with D&D 5e, which is the system I know best, but I plan to try out others. It should work with most systems, but some will probably be easier to prepare for in terms of readily-available stats for NPCs, monsters, traps, etc.
I'd love to hear what you end up picking and how things go at the con!
Challenges like this are great for leveling up! I learned a lot myself during the Appx. N Jam, both from working on my own adventure and by reading a bunch of others.
The Wordle mechanics, huge variety of possible results, and timer make for a really fantastic puzzle! One that's very repayable, too. And super easy to adapt to different systems. Great job!
Fantastic sci-fi adventure! I'm impressed with how much story and detail you fit into the space while also including a good-sized map. Really well done.
I love a good heist adventure, and this one is not only solid, but very repayable. I especially like the extra little details put into the cover stories, treasures, and events at the ball. They really help build out the world and story.
I love the idea of incorporating this gradually into a larger adventure. Some of my favorite campaigns have had little side mysterious scattered throughout. This is really well written and has a great visual design.
Really cool dungeon crawl through a dark, creepy cave! I love the Psychic Storm idea to push the adventurers deeper, and you've got so many interesting encounters. This would work great as a one shot or dropped into a campaign.
This is such a fantastic interpretation of your title! I love the idea of the various fates having an impact on the adventure, and very likely having completely different challenges every time it's played. From those fate tables to the opening poem to all the detail and flavor fit into brief room descriptions, everything's so tight and well-thought-out. Great job!
Thank you for the kind words! Swords and Deviltry was probably my most recent Appendix N read, so it's influence on this project is very likely.
It's always tricky to know how hard to make puzzles/riddles. I've tested this one on a group before and they did alright with it, but I'd be interested to hear how it goes for others. I can definitely lengthen the timer or add extra hints in future updates.
Old cities with layers (literally) of history always make for a cool setting! And the curse that could turn anyone into an undead minion makes for a great adventure. Your use of public domain art is great and your layout is pretty solid. The text itself could use some editing, and I would recommend against justified text, which can create uneven spacing, making reading harder. Otherwise, nice job!
