Cover art for 'The Waterfall Cave,' a Shadowdark adventure for levels 3-5, featuring a waterfall, characters, and nature elements.

Hello everyone. I hope you all are having a great weekend. To make it better, here is a FREE Shadowdark adventure for you all to enjoy. This adventure, The Waterfall Cave, was cut from the upcoming anthology, Curse on a Coastal Town. You will see where this adventure is located on the map for Curse on a Coastal Town, and you will get an early look for the entire map. You can place this make anywhere in the Western Reaches for Shadowdark where you have a coastline or fit it in your own campaign/home game.

I am also working on another anthology of adventures that is located southwest of the zine #2 map and the river for the Western Reaches.

We are also going to be debuting a first look at Shadowdark Depths. A source book for everything coastal and underwater for Shadowdark with new classes, spells, magic items, underwater topographical maps in the Western Reaches and of course, over 70+ new monsters all for use in the Shadowdark RPG System. The Kickstarter for Shadowdark Depths is planned to start in January 2026.

  1. Could we possibly get PNGs of the player facing maps?

  2. Here you go. Hope you enjoy it. There are a couple of minor mistakes I found, I didn’t covert everything over to SD from 5e.

    1. Thanks for the review. Yes, this was originally intended for 5th edition and I did a poor job of converting it over to Shadowdark. As you pointed out, I need to work on tightening it up as well and pay attention to detail. I will work on a revision for it and rerelease it. I appreciate the feedback.

      Very Respectfully,
