Hi there! Thank you for your kind words!
Lord Tusken's (The Barbarian) Final Quest note can indeed be found somewhere in the Lady's Chamber (room 4). I usually place it somewhere in/on around the old desk, but feel free to put it there where people will find it :)
I hope you have a great game Friday!

Hi Matt,
Thank you for writing that extensive reply. I appreciate the time you took and hopefully it will allow me to address some of the issues in next versions or new adventures. Some things you mention I did on purpose. My main goal was to design something that would only take three hours to play and would introduce people to either Shadowdark RPG or the Gauntlet version of the game. I actually have a whole map of Ucksol, including multiple points of interest, hooks for adventures, I even have menus with all kinds of food and drinks based mainly on goat, goat cheese and goat milk and mushrooms. But as I wanted to keep this adventure to be a short introductory and fun dungeon crawl, I decided to leave all of this out. If my Ucksol plans are far enough to present, I might upload it as a supplement.
I agree with the actaul boar hunt. During the playtest, people seem to do okay. It is a nice and slow way for both the DM and party members to get into their (probably shortlived) character roles and play around with DC checks like setting traps, finding tracks etc. We had quite some fun just improvising but now that the eight page Game Jam limit is off, I will see if I can add some more flavour to it.
I was hoping the exploring, and picking up items and interacting with the fairy would be a nice way to add story to the dungeon crawling aspect of this adventure. In the three play tests we had so far it did, but I understand this might not work for everybody.
Thank you once again for the effort of writing feedback. Means a lot to me. I hope you can still enjoy the adventure :)
Happy crawling,
