ShadowDark was part of many conversations that I had at NTRPG Con. Some of the discussions centered on whether or not ShadowDark is OSR (I've been part of similar discussions about the DCC RPG and Castles & Crusades in the past). My answer has always been the same - if players leave the session feeling like they played an Old School RPG, then it's close enough for me - kinda like horseshoes ;)
The Adventure Anthology is a collection of adventures for ShadowDark (but can easily be used with the OSR system of your choice. At 220 pages (and 22 adventures within those pages), The Adventure Anthology for ShadowDark is a steal at $5.99 (usually 19.99). But don't wait - this is a Deal of the Day, so the price is only good until 11:00 AM Tuesday morning (June 17th).
22 adventures
220 pages
PDF and Full size B&W hardcover (8.5″ x 11″)
The book consists of twenty two short, sharp, independent adventures, designed for low prep, improvised play. Each adventure has a hook/rumours, core scenario, random encounters, NPC details, and B&W illustrations. Nineteen have hand drawn maps. The settings are common locations such as cities, forests, mountains, underground, etc, for easy insertion into your sandbox campaign. They're suitable for PC Levels 1-7 and generally run around six to ten hours of session time.
Originally written for Low Fantasy Gaming RPG, the adventures tend to be lower magic, with a sword & sorcery bent. There are some references to the people and places of the Midlands of Argosa, but these are easily swapped out for your favourite setting.
