Friend of the blog and well-seasoned Shadowdark GM Dollface Killah made some excellent comments over on the Arcane Library discord server about what differentiates a good OSR/classic D&D adventure from a good Shadowdark adventure, and what elements can really enhance system synergy. He formatted into a blog post and I highly recommend that you read it for some very insightful and valuable tips for Shadowdark adventure and dungeon design.

On a scale of 2-12 stingbats, I give that post an A+.
