The First Delightful Dungeon Competition

I want to see more delightful dungeons and I want you to create them!

Submit one or more dungeons (or dungeon-like adventuring locations) conforming to the restrictions of the competition before August 26th 2024. A $20 amazon gift card prize is given to the best dungeon as judged by me according to the judgement criteria. A $10 amazon gift card prize is given to the most popular dungeon as voted by the non-disqualified competitors after the final date of submission. 

Criteria for qualification

• Text, maps etc. packaged into a single PDF of no more than 2 pages
• If printed the details of the text, maps, etc. should be legible (min ~8px)
• The dungeon should include at least one of the following themes: hidden treasure, traitors, sentinels
• The heavy lifting is done by you, don't ask the DM to randomize treasure, come up with hooks, names etc.
• The dungeon is compatible with an old school system like ACKS, AD&D, B/X, LotFP etc.

Criteria for judgement

• Respect the time, intelligence, and taste of the DM reading your dungeon. Write clearly, draw clearly, don't explain the obvious. Use color and imagination befitting your vision.
• Offer a good challenge and proportional reward to the players. Reward bravery and cleverness with shortcuts, treasure, information etc. Punish cowardice and stupidity with the loss of life, resources, opportunity etc. 

Examples of what I'm looking for
2-pages should allow you to write a medium sized dungeon with a sparse key (like a quadrant of Michael Curtis' excellent Stonehell) or a small (2 rooms!) lair with an expanded key (like Heikki Hallamaa's excellent The Diamond of Hishep-Ratep).

Submit your dungeon as a PDF to olleskogren [at symbol] gmail.com. The qualified entries will with the permission of each author be published as a free compilation.
