Official D&D Modules that Primarily Take Place in Castles or Towers?

[JeffB]

Wow! How is there a module that I've never even heard of? Been playing since 1981. Thanks for the info, very enlightening...

My pleasure. I picked up a like new copy for 5 bucks at a used book store last summer. Its got some fun bits. 3 short related adventures.

Sons of Gruumsh might qualify. Let's put it at "25% citadel-y" so noone gets disappointed

Lost Isle of Castanimir - it takes place inside a wizards tower

No it doesn't, it takes place in a wizard's workshop, each room linked by teleportation portals. The map does not resemble a Tower or Castle in any form.

There are two sequels to I6 Ravenloft: "House of Strahd" in 2nd Ed and "Expedition to Castle Ravenloft" for 3e. Of course, "Curse of Strahd" is coming soon.

There's also "Greyhawk Ruins" and "Expedition to the Ruins of Greyhawk" which involve exploration of Castle Greyhawk. Technically, I suppose "Castle Greyhawk" would also count, but is not exactly recommended.

Anyone mention Castle Caldwell?

B9?

The Accursed Tower?

There's only 12 relies besides yours. I'm sure you could have answered your own question in less time than it took to actually ask it!

There are various Castle Greyhawk modules (Greyhawk Ruins, and the 3E "Expedition to . . ." hardback), but the action in those is in dungeons under ruined castles/towers.

OA3 Ochimo the Spirit Warrior has a castle-like stronghold as one element, though it's not European in flavour. I think there's at least one other OA module that has a castle (maybe OA2? I don't have my copies ready to hand right now).

X2 Castle Amber involves a stronghold with some castle-like elements. And the sample adventure in Moldvay Basic is a tower - the Haunted Keep.

WG5 Mordenkainen's Fantastic Adventure is in a castle, as well as it's 3.5 update Maure Castle from Dungeon Magazine #112. There is also the awful WG7 Castle Greyhawk, or you can also check out WGR1 Greyhawk Ruins.

My connection was really slow here last night and this morning. It was actually quicker to post than reload the 1st page.

But yeah, that looked lazy.

Thanks for all of the suggestions. So much here I have never seen before. Makes me wish I'd played more D&D back in the 80's than I did...
