What a wonderful idea! It offers plenty of inspiration and frameworks to build upon. I love how it gives readers the space to make it their own. The map is excellent, and the starting town is charming.

Hot or not contest, Pork n' Beans, and Glorb as the worst kisser—this adventure was hilarious! It’s incredibly creative, and I appreciate how it offers solutions to problems without just resorting to brute force. The goals for both NPCs and players are always clear, making it highly usable. Overall, it’s both fun and funny, demonstrating a great balance of humor and practicality. Very well done!
I appreciate the effort to maintain the torch mechanic even in an outdoor setting! The maps were incredibly helpful for navigation. I’m not sure if it was part of your inspiration, but I loved the inclusion of so many bug monsters. Overall, the wild west nods were integrated well into the Shadowdark setting, creating an engaging read.
This adventure excels in brevity and excitement, efficiently capturing the "less is more" approach to Shadowdark. I adore that it is set on Mars, as it harkens back to that classic pulp feel in which the Weird Tales were created. Having low-level PCs face off with formidable high-level monsters like Balors creates a thrilling atmosphere, heightening the stakes and maintaining tension throughout.
