ASC Review: The Hypogean Oracle

The Hypogean Oracle (Michael and Brooke Strauss)
ACKSII adventure (no level range given)

I am reviewing these in the order they were submitted. For my review criteria, please check out this post. All reviews will (probably) contain *SPOILERS*; you have been warned! Because these are short (two page) adventures, it is my intention to keep the reviews brief.


Oh sweet Jesus...another one?

"Story web threads?" What?

Look, I kind of love that so many people are getting into ACKS...it shows that there are gamers who are getting tired of playing "Basic" D&D systems like OSE.  Why they don't transition to AD&D instead is simply beyond my ken of understanding...or, at least, it's beyond my ken without me taking the time to think and ponder on the subject.

And that doesn't interest me.

Again, I'll give this *** (with a "-" for not putting a level range) and take your word for it that this adventure is "playable." Alternatively, it can be DISQUALIFIED for having less than eight keyed areas (per the contest rules).
