The Lost City

1st- to 3rd-Level Characters

This introductory adventure was written with new Dungeon Masters in mind to accompany the Dungeons & Dragons Basic Set. Tom Moldvay purposely designed the adventure so that only the upper floors of the Cynidicean ziggurat the party explores were fully detailed. The lower levels had sparse information and needed the DM’s creativity to flesh out the specifics.

 

When a Star Falls

4th- to 5th-Level Characters

Coming out of TSR UK in 1984, this adventure has been remembered for its intricate plot and inventive adventure hook. Graeme Morris, the author, crafted this adventure to revolve around the events of a fallen star and a faction that is attempting to recover it.

 

Beyond the Crystal Cave

6th-Level Characters

Inspired by Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, this adventure was highly touted when it was published in 1983 for its emphasis on compassion and pacificism as the resolution to its conflict. It was the first in the series of adventures produced by TSR UK.

 

Pharaoh

7th- to 8th-Level Characters

This adventure was the first of the Desert of Desolation trilogy. Published in 1980 by Tracy and Laura Hickman’s company, DayStar West Media, it was sold to TSR, who reprinted it in 1982 and hired Tracy. It was praised for its masterful dungeon design that seamlessly blended a compelling narrative.

 

The Lost Caverns of Tsojcanth

9th- to 10th-Level Characters

The Lost Caverns of Tsojcanth was a tournament adventure created by Gary Gygax for Winter Con V in 1976. This adventure took players into the caverns beneath the Yatil Mountains, where they could explore the former lair of Iggwilv, the Witch Queen. While Iggwilv—also known as Tasha on some planes—had been absent for some time, players still had to contend with various dangers.
