About the adventure

A beginner friendly, easy to pick up old school D&D game - This is real 1980's 'Stranger Things' era Dungeons & Dragons experience! "Decades ago you explored Lion Castle, overcoming its many challenges and becoming an heir to the mysterious wizard Sargon. Years later the castle lies forgotten, neglected and overgrown, yet dreams and visions of the ghost of Sargon have drawn your group of adventurers out of retirement to investigate Lion Castle once again...." This is a tribute to the classic TSR solo module 'The Ghost of Lion Castle' but no prior experience or knowlege of that adventure is required!

About me

I'm an experienced Games Master who first played D&D in the 80's, (which seems a very long time ago now!) I'm passionate about the gaming hobby and have run hundreds of games at home, in gaming stores, at conventions and online. I move easily between genres and can run fantasy, weird west, wartime adventure stories, sci fi and horror games. I am also a published writer. I've authored an adventure for Small Niche Games' "WW2: Operation Whitebox RPG", am a contributing writer for Stiff Whiskers Press' weird west RPG "Weird Frontiers" and have contributed material to several Goodman Games publications including an adventure for the "Xcrawl Classics RPG"
