Reviews

In many ways, 1980's The Hidden Shrine of Tamoachan is not unlike the more in/famous Tomb of Horrors -- a dungeon with lots of traps, few monsters, and little treasure explicitly designed as a test of "the skill and common sense of players," as states in its prefatory "Notes for the Dungeon Master." Consequently, I suspect, much like module S1, it's often dismissed out of hand as a "killer module." That's a pity, because, in many ways, it's actually a much more interesting adventure than Tomb of Horrors and its challenges, while certainly deadly, have a greater degree of naturalism to them, which is to say, they feel more less like explicit challenges to players of a game and ingenuity and more like the kinds of things you might find in an ancient ruin.
