I like plot, and this one just doesn't offer a
whole lot of it. However, with the right mind set this module can provide
several hours of great fun. In the old days, a journey by sea to the Isle of
Dread seemed like a great risk. Would you come ashore and wander into a band of
cannibals, who you could easily overcome, or will you come face to face with
the great thunder lizard on the cover? Each encounter is an adventure of its
own, and while all put together may not tell a cohesive story, it certainly is
guaranteed to be a heck of an adventure!
Realm Rating: 3.5/5

This
far, 'Isle of the Dread' has been my favourite Realm game. If that sounds
surprising to some who know me and my preferred style, wait for the review to
find out why... Currently I'm playing 'Ravenloft' (and admittedly I am a bit
stuck in it as well, I just don't want to map, which would help a lot...)

The
font type/color combo really hurt the eyes on this one. I had trouble mapping
out the overland but that's part of the mystique of the isle. I hate fighting
dinosaurs!!! This was really good rendition of the classic. I have never played
this one before, so it was a new experience for me. I think I might have moiderized
any gm who threw this one at me.
