It criticized the frantic pacing, comparing it to a greatest hits album, and noted the adventure was not suited for new players. [1] Another article compared the adventure favorably to Tomb of Horrors , praising its opportunity for roleplay, player choice and the logic of its Tomb of Wayward Souls. [2]
A review for Wargamer praised the variety of play of social interaction, puzzle solving, exploration and combat in diverse locations of epic scale, such as Sigil, the Underdark, Eberron, Barovia, Krynn, and the Astral Sea of Spelljammer . However, it criticized the narrative logic and amount of preparation needed by the Dungeon Master. [3]
