One page dungeon contest 2022
No system or level given.
Premise: Enter the world inside the amulet of dreams to rescue the slumbering princess.
What do we get here?
A single page gives us a point crawl with 9 locations.
Usability/formatting
Supposedly aimed at children this is exactly the kind of weird dream adventure anyone can enjoy.
Everything is really well laid out, text is easy to follow and use on the fly. The whimsical art also works really well with the adventure, giving you just enough to go on for the map of a dream island.
All the points on the point crawl have a few things to explore and interact with and there is a decent amount of treasure knocking about. Your players should have plenty to do here and get a really memorable experience out of the way things work in the dream world.
Portability
As this adventure takes place in it's own contained pocket plane it is really easy to drop this adventure in an existing campaign without needing to adapt things. About the only complaint you could possibly have is the hook, personally I'd forgo the NPC quest giver as it is a bit boring and have you find the princess sleeping wearing the necklace then go from there.
Recommendation
There are a ton of bad dream adventures out there, this is not one. Thanks to unique mechanics and excellent writing this is a really fun adventure you should absolutely considering dropping in a campaign or running as a one shot. Well deserving of a spot in the winner's circle.
PWYW for the whole collection on gumroad or stump up cash on drivethru.
