System– Starfinder 2nd Ed
Producer– Paizo
Price– $5.99 here https://store.paizo.com/pathfinder-society-scenario-7-16/
TL; DR– Most of the map wasn’t used. 73%
Basics- Where’s Star? An ally of the society has gone missing. Can you find him? What took them?
Mechanics or Crunch: The adventure is balanced, but there just isn’t much. The players have a fight with some intro monsters, a small puzzle, and then a final skill challenge. Those are all balanced, but it needs more. Give the players and GM more to do. 4/5
Theme or Fluff– The story here is light. The story shows something new, but even that is small. The characters meet something new, but then that’s about it. Even the reason why Star is missing really isn’t explained, just solved. That’s all due to the time constraints of the new adventures. What’s here is good, but it needs more. 4/5
Execution: What’s here is good, but it needs more. The standard Paizo polish is on display, but It needs more. This adventure used the exact same map as the last published level 1-4 adventure. That’s not great as almost ALL the level 1-4 use that, but then again, most of that map didn’t have stuff to do in it. No descriptions of anything. Couple that with a small gripe about names, and this was five bucks for less than two hours of game. 3/5
Summary-Everything here is ok. The encounters are ok. Social is ok. Puzzles are ok. It just too short. The goal is 2-3 hours. This is maybe 1 hour if you don’t mess around. I do online gaming and even with tech issues, a biobreak, folding sourdough, and wrapping up after, this was two hours. The fact that most of the map lacked descriptions is also a major issue. I can get past the map being reused again, but the fact that it’s not even covered makes this a problem. Add more to these adventures. Nothing is bad here, but it just needs more.73%
