I did not have 'Mutated Satellite' on my game Jam bingo card.
The unique premise is already a big draw, but everything here is well presented. The layout here gives any prospective referee a nice clear walk through of the adventure. The satellite, the boss of the adventure, also has some nice mechanics and... well I've already said that it being a horrific mutant satellite is pretty memorable. The Depths trait could also introduce some interesting dilemmas both during the adventure as well as potentially after it, as well as giving a character some new abilities in exchange for their vulnerability to mind control.
There's not really much more I can say about Blood Silo other than I like it a lot. Maybe there could have been some more buildup to the satellite, but even without that this is a excellent entry in my opinion.
Thank you for the review!
Mission and final boss are superb, adventure/module is concise and to the point. Interesting location and lots of useful information packed in 3 pages.
I would love to read a longer more detailed version that delves into the purpose of the Sentient Satelite and the experiments. A few snippets of diegetic info would improve the immersion of the adventure.
Thank you! We’re starting to think about a longer form series of missions as our next project so working on immersion / more info is on our list!
The layout and structure of the adventure is excellent. Everything is very clear, easy to read and concise.
I am very new to FIST so I don’t know if these are conventions or not, but the connections between rooms with the “I” in them aren’t clear. Does this mean a door or locked? Perhaps it could be added to the legend along with the encounter icon.
Otherwise, awesome adventure!
Thanks for the feedback. Good spot, it’s definitely not a convention and could be clearer!
Arcane Atlas continues to be my gold standard for FIST homebrew. To the point, flavourful, with clean and easy to read layouts. Good wiggle room to build off of this, but also perfectly fine to run it as-is.
Thank you so much!

Review after reading. It seems like a fun mission with a very nice 3 page layout. Nice greyscale art means it'll be easy to print and subsequently run.

STYLE: 5/5, Nice layout and art. I also like the idea of infiltrating a BLOOD Silo that contains a sentient fish satelitte.
SUBSTANCE: 5/5, It has all you need to run the mission. One page for the overall flow, one page for the NPC stats, and one page with the map and location descriptions.
Thanks for the kind review!
