Isle of Dread is a fascinating case: the PCs have been there twice, and retreated twice from the dinosaurs. They're a lot scarier this time around!I have fond memories of a PC hiding up a tree from the Minotaur in the Caves of Chaos, of a PC turned into a dancing monkey in Oasis, and the PCs getting invited to a slavers dinner (in an extension of A1) and then going...The one failure would be The Final Enemy, and I well believe that to be a structural problem of the module itself - the series is designed for low level PCs but the first module takes two sessions and the second one session. By the time the PCs reach U3, they need to be 4th level+, but in only 3 sessions from 1st level? Right...Cheers!</blockquote>
