Descent: Journeys in the Dark – Quest Compendium – Volume One
This hardcover compendium collects sixteen standalone adventures for a dungeon-crawl campaign, each written by a different designer and set within the same fantasy setting. Scenarios range from dimensional crises and factional hauntings to heist-like treasure hunts and puzzle-driven threats. Gameplay uses mission-based scenarios where players control adventurers exploring maps, overcoming monsters and traps, making tactical choices, and resolving story beats that can force moral or strategic decisions. Each scenario includes setup details, objectives, map layouts, and enemy stat blocks so the group can drop the adventure into an ongoing campaign or play it as a one-shot.
