The Vanished

 

By Josh Domanski

One page dungeon contest 2022

No system or level given.


Premise: The Digital Transformation department is typically a hive of activity. But something is different. Its occupants are gone, vanished into thin air. The only clue to their disappearance lies in a power surge that cascaded through the building, shorting out critical systems.


What do we get here?


 A single page gives us 9(?) keyed locations.


 Usability/formatting


 So this is not your usual fantasy dungeon crawl adventure by a long shot, putting it slightly out of my wheelhouse. 


  The writing is decent, room information nestled in bullet points and descriptions that are short but evocative. I also found the graphic design to be well done, simple and clear while being fitting for the setting of the adventure.


 Given my lack of familiarity with the genre it is hard for me to say if there is enough interactivity here, every room seems to have something going on with it at least. 


Portability


   Clearly this is an investigation adventure which means you need a suitable system to run it and a sci fi setting to fit it.


Recommendation


 I think this could be a pretty fun drop in adventure or one shot for the right system.


PWYW for the whole collection on gumroad or stump up cash on drivethru.
