I just finished writing this adventure a few months ago. I would love to hear feedback!

I played Sunset at Silver Creek with my fiance tonight. We didn't finish but we had a great time so far. Honestly, I don't know whether these games are more fun to write or to play!

It is a fun adventure. After writing a dozen or so, I still love playing through them!

I look forward to getting my copy soon, I have a bonus coming ! How about a Cowboys vs. Aliens type adventure next ? Or your take on something like The Valley Of Gwangi ?

The Gwangi idea sounds great! Not too sure about the aliens. I definitely will consider writing a Gwangi adventure. I'll have to watch it again, especially when the T. rex fights the elephant. Classic!

I watched the movie, and I think I'm leaning toward Sir A.C. Doyle's Lost World, but I'll use both movies for inspiration. I have some ideas already, but I welcome any feedback or advice. One thing I'd possibly like to include is a rival group trying to outdo the players by capturing more dinosaurs than the players and having the better circus act/zoo animals/museum specimens.

I finished reading the Lost World novel. Great read. I am surprised by how many ideas from the book that I already had in the adventure - I guess I was drawing on various movies that were in turn inspired by the book. I have almost 100 entries done.

Just an update - I have made more progress on the Lost World adventure. It is a hodge-podge of critters from different time periods, just like the source material. Even though I have a degree in biology I decided not to limit myself to any one period of time, any one type of creature, or the likelihood of a given prehistoric creature somehow living in the Amazon Jungle when the only fossils are from East Africa.
I would love any suggestions as to what name to give to this adventure; "Lost World" seems too generic. Thanks!

Classic! The more that I think about it, the more fun Cowboys vs. Aliens sounds. I'll have to watch the movie (never seen it) and see if enough ideas occur to me to justify writing an adventure. But first things first; I am currently working on the Lost World adventure! |

I am watching Cowboys and Aliens. Not a bad flick. I might be able to make a game out of it. But first the Lost World adventure!

I found episodes of The Land of the Lost online! Source material.

My friend who has a Master's in History and is helping me write the Paul Revere adventure is in the middle of a 300-page book on Paul Revere. I sent him a copy of GURPS Napoleon since it's the closest in timeline to the American Revolution, and has content on that war. It'll probably be a while before we get to it, though; I still have the Lost World adventure to complete. But I'm making good progress on the Lost World adventure as we speak!

I have all but finished the Lost World adventure. I would like a more imaginative name and there are a few minor details to consider but it's mostly done!
