TL; DR: A great city, not an adventure. 83%

Basics: Where are we going now?  This adventure is a two-page city.  It has multiple random tables and things that can happen while in the city.

Mechanics or Crunch: The crunch is good here.  It’s got enemies, tables, and things to fight along the way.  It works well  5/5

Theme or Fluff– What’s here is solid, but what’s here isn’t enough.  The adventure is really more of a city description.  There are groups, but it’s mostly a map and tables for random stuff to happen in town.  If you have a plan, it’s good, but if you want an adventure and you get this five minutes before game night, you are stuck in the same boat you were before. 3.5/5

Execution: I like what’s here, but it’s expensive.  Pirate Borg is less is more, so I understand not needing a hundred pages for an adventure, but this is two pages and costs more than most full adventures on DriveThru.  That said, the art, layout, and city are well done.  Just a bit pricey. 4/5

Summary: I love me some Pirate Borg, and I love me some Cthulhu.  This has both.  But its a city.  A well-done city, but this is more of a location.  That said, it’s a really good location if you wanted to do some city adventures or wanted a springboard for other stuff.  Just don’t expect a canned adventure when you buy this one.  83%
