[Ken · Rating 3 out of 5]

This adventure is short, but highly playable. The party can really interact with the puzzles to try to solve them, or find ways around them. The Ghostbusters homage is amusing. It has an excellent mix of monsters & traps and not too many empty rooms. The disembodied brain new monster in particular is excellent. It does not, however, have any particular "heart of the house", unless you the DM do something interesting with the 'plot device'. The backstory could be swapped out with any other because there's really no trace of Tazimack left. I was expecting a spell-casting shadow of him or something, much like Crucible of Freya has. Artwork-wise, the ghoul on page 3 is excellent, but the back cover, which is just a Labyrinth Lord advertisement, is ONE OF THE GREATEST OLD SCHOOL ART PIECES I HAVE EVER SEEN. Holy cow. It is a picture of Orcus, flaming skulls, and skeletons attacking a party of adventurers. I want it framed and on my wall!!!
