The adventure is the last chapter of the Game Master Quickstart Guide! 👍
This video is a walkthrough for The Arcane Library's latest Shadowdark RPG adventure for 1st-3rd level characters: Lost Citadel of the Scarlet Minotaur!
What the heck is Shadowdark RPG? It's an old-school rebuild of the 5E rules, bringing it back to the original style of the game while keeping the elegant innovations of modern RPG design.
For converting this adventure to 5E DnD:
1. Double the HP and damage of any monsters with 6+ hit dice.
2. Replace Shadowdark spells with their 5E versions, or a similar spell from the same level ("tier" in Shadowdark).
3. Change checks to avoid negative effects into saving throws.
