I'm trying to get my own youtube channel off the ground, and honestly, your channel has given me a lot of direction and insight on how to make a quality video. Keep up the good work. I love OSE, too. Let's spread the good news of old school gaming!
Tarantella. This is a kinda clever play on words. A large hairy spider would be called a tarantula in English. A tarantella is a kind of Italian folk dance. There is a superstition that says the dance is caused by the bite of a large hairy spider. This thing in the module silently references all of that.
Very nice review, Earthmote! I really enjoyed seeing the layout as well. Looks like it would be very easy to use at the table (and even gave me some ideas how I might work some of my own writing). Great stuff, keep it coming!
I know you said the third adventure has a very greek theme but if you read adventures 1 & 2 they also both are very ancient greek themed. It seems the only non-Greek adventure is the last one. Also side note on the last adventure I don't know how I feel about the time limit. I might not use it or extend it, I do like the idea I just think it might be too short but I would have to test that. I do find it interesting that the last one is more of a mini campaign as opposed to an adventure.
@@Earthmote So far I've only ran the isle of the plangent mage. And it was great, and simple to set into a VTT. I will def use these. Such great stuff. I ran the isle in 5e and me and our group are switching to 2nd ed. As its already loaded in Fantasy Grounds. and im bored of 5e. I started with becmi red box. These sorts of mods you can port into becmi or 2nd ed. easily, and ive had no problem running these as Dungeon Crawl Classics in my IRL game. Good review. Thanks!
Which is your favorite adventure?

cant wait to view these, got my hardcovers in the mail, downloaded the pdf which you get when you buy the hardcovers.... very excited
The hardcovers should be really nice. All of their other modules are of great quality.
The Purified Ones' Final Form must be a reference to Castlevania's Legion. Nice adventure compilation.
Nice catch! That could definitely be inspiration for it.

Glad it was helpful!

I backed this, and i really loved that first adventure so much i got 1 and 2 in print.
Jewelers Sanctum is probably my favorite in anthology 1!
