Today's Western Reaches update is a 68 page PDF with ALL the new spells, including those from Cursed Scrolls (so far). Nice!

I mean sure...great, but is it CS 6?

I'm parched for content!

I liked the description for CS 5 though, that could be your weird and unique stuff you were looking for @Reynard

Wait, is there a Gnome out there?

There must be.

While it's not quite large enough to be called a mega dungeon, Bittermold Keep (Cursed Scrolls #1) took my group the better part of five 4-hour sessions to finally explore all of it. They loved coming back each time and seeing how it had changed, as we play (roughly) in real time between sessions. Start and end each session in a safe haven (usually Wardenwood).

No special rules needed. They went through a lot of torches!

SD is a great fit for a open table dungeon crawling game.

I'm thinking of running this soon...

Did you play theater of the mind, maps & miniatures, VTT, or something else? I just ordered two Chessex Megamats and going to draw out the entire dungeon. Also ordered a couple dozen black, silk handkerchiefs to cover it with to create a fog-of-war effect. First time trying to run a large dungeon like this, hope it works out!
