I played it once back in the AD&D era, but it was just a one-off. I later ran it for the same 90’s group, but we wanted to make it grittier, so we hacked the Stormbringer rpg and it really gave us that sword and sorcery feel. We played 1 story with it and never went back, though. I also ran it once for a curious group using the 4e version. That game ended in a TPK largely due to a couple miscalculations by the PCs and some angry dice gods. We actually thought it was pretty hilarious that we managed to TPK in 4e! (And I’m no killer GM). If anyone in my circles wanted to play Darksun again I’d happily run it, but I’d probably want to adapt something like Dragonbane rules for it because I have fond memories of our Stormbringer hack.  As a final note, my long running Planescape group suggested Darksun actually be one of the orb-worlds of Carceri, with the idea the original world’s “death” actually Planeshifted it.</blockquote>
