Gristle & Vine: Crypt of the Child

This Shadowdark RPG adventure was written for the 8-Bit Shadowdark Game Jam.

The Wurm Food Tavern is an unfortunate place. Twice now, part of the tavern has collapsed and patrons were lost. Except this time, the townsfolk are upset. The tavern Keeper Strum is hiring adventurers to go down and figure out what happened the townsfolk that fell into the hole. He warns the groups about vampires & snakes, but prays they can find something about this place before the Count or the townsfolk destroy his livelihood completely. He’s even willing to put himself into financial ruin for your assistance.

Does your party have what it takes to brave the depths and enter the Crypt underneath the tavern dedicated to a child vampire? 

Intended for mid-level groups of 4 people.

While this was written and put together in 2 weeks,  I still hope you’ll give it a try and see if you like it. I want to thank Sleepless Seven for his pixel art portrait assets that are used in this adventure. All other writing and art was done by me. No AI.

Made by Idle Hands, Not Ugly Robots. No AI.
