Well I'm glad somebody liked it. Ranking 106th feels bad when this is the only thing I am good at. I wont be discouraged though. It was written in a couple nights and I only did one revision so it's not exactly representative of my best work or anything. But I will probably delete Shadowdark materials and ignore the system from now on. Maybe I'm just not good with this system in particular.

The scene in the taproom before the tower's appearance warrants a download.  It is an excellent model for social encounters with all the various goals, intentions, and events.  The adventure overall is interesting and different, filled with riddles and mysteries,  Very well thought out and I am looking forward to throwing this one in my campaigns.  Thank you!

No map??

Yeah sorry, no map.  It's really meant to be done in the theater of the mind, as a trap room where players can't do much exploration, they just have to think about the puzzle in that one lower part of the tower and they either solve it or die of old age which is almost a satirical DM joke about players taking a long time to solve puzzles.
