Editor review
Stack Cavern is a short cavern-exploration adventure. Five hours across a connected cavern system.
What works is the focused scope. Single location; one ending; no padding.
Five hours of campaign content.
Tested over one weekend session from Galway.
Where the design tries hardest is the visual style. Hand-painted cavern interiors with appropriate lighting.
Where I would push back is the absence of replay value. Single ending; no alternate paths.
Three stars. Functional small-scope adventure.
