TL; DR-Short, very short adventure. 87%

Basics- Where are the boys?!  Many Minotaur young have gone missing.  Can you find them in time?  A VERY short adventure for levels 1-2.

Mechanics or Crunch: This adventure is short, but the crunch is ok.  The basics are two fights and a haunt.  It’s not bad, but its designed for the new streamlined adventures.  It could use a bit more skill challenges, but overall it works. 4.5/5

Theme or Fluff–  The theme is good, but abridged again.  They introduce the four missing kids and even give them a handout.  But beyond that, there really isn’t a reason to dig too deeply into their individuality.  The story is good but not as developed as it could be.  Even the minotaur village is a short stop in what could have been a longer interlude. 4/5

Execution: It’s short, but decently polished.  The maps are all from one map.  The stats are ok, even if they assume I am using the stats from online.  There are pictures of most of the NPCs.  It’s good, but still misses some of the old Paizo polish. 4.5/5

Summary: I don’t hate this, but this feels like a quest.  It plays in under two hours.  That was the goal, so that worked.  But I expect more from the society adventures.  It’s not bad.  It works well with this new format.  But I want more.  Good, but held back by society’s new goals.  87%
