As someone pointed out recently this is a lot of Adventure for free. Apparently the sequel is in the works and will cost a small sum of money. I haven't gotten too far in but this adventure of ancient ruins, dark cults and a region locked in the grip of an ancient demonic terror is already getting my wheels spinning. Rather reminiscent of a dungeon module dealing with the same Demon Lord but it is it's own story all the same. Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if some enterprising DM's wove them into connecting plots.

Give this game a look through, can't hurt seeing as it's free right? :P

This is absolutely well worth downloading. I honestly can't believe it is free. I haven't run it yet, but looking it over it is filled with great maps and descriptions. As has been previously mentioned it is designed in a very retro gamer way. Nice, usable pregenerated characters, maps and NPCs as well as a really good story line ... for free! Honestly it's a dream come true. This is perfect for someone that wants to try out the Pathfinder rule set without a huge financial commitment. You'll find yourself more in love with the system as a result.

I am playing it right now and we are having a blast! REally cool adventure, though I suggest you play it on medium or slow levelling pace, otherwise, it'll become too easy too fast.

And by the way: anywhere I can find the stats for a Displacer BEast? Or can anybody who played this tell me what they replaced it with?

Hmm. I just looked at this product, and they're telling you to use a Displacer Beast from the Pathfinder RPG Bestiary... but not only is the Displacer Beast *not* in the Bestiary, it's not even Open Content! It's Wizards' IP.

I'll drop a note to the publisher...

In case the author or owners of Sagaworks reads this, when is Temple of the Kraken supposed to be out, I'm dying with anticipation?

Guess he's really busy with something else, cause I sent him an email about a month ago and didn't receive anything yet.

Fred

Yeah, I sent them a email about a month or so ago as well and no reply.

....Aaaand we're back on the air.

Yes, I must say that it has been a while since I have been around. Some of you may know that I had to make some hard decisions about delaying product releases so I could support my partner whilst she recovered from injuries sustained during a gas explosion earlier this year. The repercussions from that accident has been a costly and time-consuming exercise, requiring us to sell up, relocate 600 miles and me to find more work in order to pay living and medical expenses, but I am happy to report that she is well on the road to recovery; both physically and psychologically. We are now entering the last month of 2010 and I realize that I am well behind where I expected to be. I must apologize to everyone for that, but I also hope that everyone understands the factors that are behind it.

Excuses aside; the buck stops with me. Especially with fixing the embarrassing error in Horror at Dagger Rock. I consider myself very lucky to have an astute audience and the support of a kind-hearted publisher like Paizo.

I have since uploaded a new version of HaDR that is pending approval by Paizo. Being Thanksgiving, I do not expect that it will be available until the 29th of November 2010. In any case, the changes I have made include:

....Aaaand we're back on the air.

Awesome! I just posted yesterday on Enworld on the "Best 3PP Publishers" thread how great your stuff was and mentioned that you hadn't been around in a while. Really glad to see you back! Your situation with your partner is more than understandable and I am glad she is recovering well. Something to be thankful for this Thanksgiving!

I am still working on Temple of the Kraken, along with a color map of Rel-Draxa. Despite the delays, work is slowly but steadily progressing. It will be worth the wait. I promise :)

Brilliant. I may just take you up on that offer. Thanks again.

Well, I feel bad now, cause obviously, the sarcasm wouldn't have been written knowing what happened to your partner...

That being said, happy to hear you're back and I'm waiting for the Kraken adventure, which I'll definitely buy!

Fred

Man this adventure daggerROCKS! We are having a great time playing this and I'm cranking up the horror volume to the max scaring my PC's and freaking myself out sometimes! lol.

I'm an old school gamer and I really love your style. I'll echoe my fellow posters and say it again, I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS WAS FOR FREE! Great work. I can't wait for the Temple of the Kraken to come out.

Every review so far is right on the money and I agree with them all.

Let me introduce myself :
I'm a Pathfinder Fan from www.pathfinder-fr.org, the french speaking community of Pathfinder fans.

I loved this module when it came out, but I didn't GMed it yet, because of the handouts : Most of my players aren't fluent in english.

I beleive Andrew C Gale is aware that Christophe "Dalvyn" started translating this great module in french.

I'm not talented at translating, but I've a sharp eye to find mistakes and I've rereaded keenly the working version of "Horreur au Roc de la Dague". In my reading I spoted a few mistakes that were not translation errors but were in the orginal version.

I guess it should have been reported earlier, but I've just received the new updated version today, only to find out the mistakes I've spoted are still there.

Here they are :

Page 57, the dwarven wizard has only 15 point of abilities whereas the other pregenerated characters have 17 points :
Balthazeus
STR 12 : 2 points
DEX 10 : 0 points
CON 10 : -2 points (he's a dwarf, racial +2)
INT 15 : 7 points
WIS 15 : 3 points (he's a dwarf, racial +2)
CHA 12 : 5 points (he's a dwarf, racial -2)
Total : 15 points

Joreune
STR 15 : 7 points
DEX 14 : 5 points
CON 10 : 0 points
INT 10 : 0 points
WIS 12 : 2 points
CHA 15 : 3 points (she got a racial +2 either here or in STR which is the same)
Total : 17 points

Llander
STR 12 : 2 points
DEX 17 : 7 points (he got a racial +2 here)
CON 10 : 0 points
INT 10 : 0 points
WIS 14 : 5 points
CHA 13 : 3 points
Total : 17 points

Rongo
STR 16 : 5 points (he got a racial +2 here)
DEX 12 : 2 points
CON 10 : 0 points
INT 13 : 3 points
WIS 10 : 0 points
CHA 15 : 7 points

Since the module is very difficult for 1st level characters, I believe this mistake is important.

My suggestion : Give the dwarf 12 in Constitution, that will get him 7 hp (which is still quite low given the difficulty of this module), and +1 Fortitude Save.

(By the way, nice thing the Pregens have a picture now)

Another mistake :
Page 63 in the Diary, an entry dates (Dated 7 months and 3 days after the earthquake) and the text starts :
"A terrible thing has happened. Father Arden has been found murdered."

But earlier, an entry states "Father Arden has returned" and it is (Dated the same day) as the previous entry (Dated 8 months after the earthquake).

So I belive the Entry starting with "A terrible thing has happened. Father Arden has been found murdered." should be (Dated 8 months and 3 days after the earthquake).

If readers are interested with a french version of this module we are working on it here :

Work is slow, we are just a bunch of volonteers, but we are eager to produce quality work for free.

Good show on that, btw. Just got the update alert on this adventure!

Andrew,

I'd like to get in contact with you - is there an e-mail address you could provide?

Thanks!

Me also.

URLed the address of the site.

Andrew,

Thanks for an excellent adventure. I disagree with the reviewer's requests for interior art. Since this is a PDF, all art does is consume printer ink. I do request an NPC "who's who" cheatsheet, so I can keep track of everyone! I imagine it would be something of a spreadsheet, with boxes I can check off to see who's dead, who's alive, who's neither (:, who's an innocent townsperson, who's a bad guy, that sort of thing.

Sorry to hear about the accident. Best wishes to your family.

My entire party is slowly becoming 8th level now and I'm afraid we will be too powerful to run the module we are ALL waiting for. Any hint on what the level will be for the Temple of the Kraken? Give us a little info please.

Hey just in case the Sagaworks studio dudes read this, I was wondering if you are still planning on releasing stuff for Pathfinder? I saw you are working on adventures for DCCRPC and the first one looks/sounds very cool.
