OSR Commentary On Maximum Mayhem Dungeons #8: Funhouse of the Puppet Jester By Mark Taormino Kickstarter Coming Up

 "This adventure is about a Magic-User who had a mid-life crisis at the age of forty-sevens and decided to pursue his life long dream of being a Court Jester doing funny routines with puppets! There's only one little problem... Nobody thought he was funny and countless villages, hamlets and cities run him and his disgusting "comedy act" out of town. Living in the wilds as an outcast and growing madder as the days turned to months and months to years he finally found his audience, a tribe of goblins who saw him as hilarious and elected him their new leader. Together with the goblins he enchanted an old castle and turned it into his "fun house" dungeon with nightly puppet shows only for those brave enough to enter and defeat all challenges for the riches within!" 

Maximum Mayhem Dungeons #8: Funhouse of the Puppet Jester By Mark Taormino is going to be coming up here. And knowing Mark's adventure modules as I do this is going to be a great one. And this module is perfect for our Tainted Greyhawk setting. DM Steve is really excited for Mark's latest Kickstarter. The following is all speculation & commentary based on Dark Wizard Games past modules. 
The Court Jester seems almost like a Ravenloft Dark Lord in some horror respects & aspects. It's the adaptability of Mark's modules that plugs into AD&D first edition and other OSR rpg systems that makes them excellent. For Greyhawk the Court Jester's dungeon & facilities are perfect right before the wilderness really begins. And it would fit just outside of the capital and between the wilderness. 
Running Maximum Mayhem Dungeons #8: Funhouse of the Puppet Jester is gonna be a snap with Castles & Crusades. The stat blocks, expanded encounters, etc are all going to be perfect for levels five to ten. In terms of Castles & Crusades this puts MMD#8 right in the mid level for PC's. 

Plot and encounter wise Dark Wizard Games modules have definitively lethal element to them. And this isn't a bad thing with challenging encounters for even the most jaded of players. Mark's modules also can turn dangerous with innocent seeming encounters and this is also going to happen in Maximum Mayhem Dungeons #8: Funhouse of the Puppet Jester. And this lends to the fact that we can place the Funhouse of the Puppet Jester and it's environs literally into your own OSR  campaign setting with little issue. So we're really looking forward to Maximum Mayhem Dungeons #8: Funhouse of the Puppet Jester By Mark Taormino Kickstarter Coming Up!
