This is my first DCC and i liked it. The info is nicely presented. The players liked the story and the (few) puzzles are fun.
LIKED: Layout, monster stats in between.
DISLIKED: I prefer color images (handouts)
QUALITY: Very Good
VALUE: Very Satisfied

I'm quite a fan of the DCC products because, in the main, they are easy to insert into an ongoing campaign due to lack of an overly detailed background (which I assume is the whole point).
This one, in particular, is very useful since Mysterious Towers are a popular destination for adventurers. One could easily tailor the climactic encounter and treasure to campaign needs.
LIKED: Apart from the easy portability, this particular adventure has a pleasing mix of traps and combat. One encounter, in particular, has a wonderful twist on the expectations of experienced players.
DISLIKED: It probably would have benefitted from being aimed at a higher level, but ELs are easy to tweak. Like most dungeon crawls, the overall raison d'etre doesn't bear too close scrutiny.
QUALITY: Very Good
VALUE: Satisfied

Goodman Games Dungeon Crawl Classic series is the best old school dungeoneering on the market. If you can't find a place for their modules in your campaign you may be doing something wrong. Excellent mix of traps, combat, and treasure. No ultra fancy monster selection, just the classics. I can hardly wait to run it!
LIKED: good player handouts and old school maps!
DISLIKED: nothing
QUALITY: Excellent
VALUE: Very Satisfied

Another high-quality high-fun adventurous romp from Goodman Games!
LIKED: The straightforward sword and sorcery action. The clean, clear aesthetically-pleasing look of the adventure. The Erol Otus (Erol Otus!) cover art.
DISLIKED: As has been mentioned elsewhere, the ultimate guardian of the tower's treasure is a good-aligned creature. The author assumes that PCs will be the cliche greedy types who won't care about killing a good creature when so much treasure is at stake, but I know PCs (and players) who would care, and who would walk away rather than slay a good creature being forced to act against its will. DMs who also care will have to swap in an evil counterpart for the guardian creature -- the Monster Manual will make this fairly easy to do -- yet the tactics of the final battle will be changed thereby, which will mean more work for the DM. Honestly, this is the one objectionable element of this product; the author should've gone with an evil guardian, or else added in a means by which non-Lawful Greedy players might free the good-aligned guardian and still inherit the treasure. If not for this design lapse, I would've awarded The Mysterious Tower a perfect five stars.
QUALITY: Excellent
VALUE: Very Satisfied

This is worth five stars for the cover alone! Now this is not the adventure that was released as a convention special with the very same cover...which is somewhat of a disappointment. However, aside from that...and the fact that it is a bit pricy for the page count...this is a fun and nostalgic adventure! I expect that I will be purchasing the rest of these dungeon crawls. As a GM I like your basic adventure/dungeon crawl...I like even more the fact that this can be dropped into my campaign with a minimum of muss and fuss. Basic adventures, which don't have all kinds of "new" stuff (feats, spells, monsters, etc.), are nice to have. Using the basic books I can just drop this into my campaign and get rolling...at least that's what I am hoping to do!

Another great entry in the Dungeon Crawl Classics series - both I and my group have been enjoying these 'blasts from the past'; the original style artwork is a joy to behold and the straightforward nature of the adventure make it a great trip back to the old days of roleplaying :) Keep 'em coming, guys!

Good module. Keeps the PC's guessing as to when they are actually going to get some GP's for the slashin they have to do. Couple of puzzles, bunch o traps, little bit of RP'ing (Well, dice rolling and a tiny amount of Roleplaying *chuckles*). Ultimately though, the end seems slightly unsatisfying. I would have to say that overall it was a decent module.
