I am excited to announce the release of the digital module and “ready to go” VTT campaign files for another adventure module hosted on SyncRPG: Captured By Adventure. It’s completely free, and you don’t even need to have an account to check it out. Click over to the interactive module map to read the amazing survival adventure written by Brian Mønster and Nathan Ayronis, and see the unique presentation of our SyncRPG interactive digital modules!

Shipwrecked off the coast of Kithera, a band of strangers find themselves captured by the orcs of the Dankwood Jungle. When a mysterious ranger attempts to set them free, the PCs must learn to work together to escape the orcs and survive the jungle wilds in their first exciting adventure. Can they unite as a team and learn the skills necessary to overcome the wild creatures, swamp-filled forest, and a dangerous, abandoned mine in time to escape their orcish captors?

The adventure was designed from the start to help ease users on both sides of the GM screen into the SyncRPG system. Encounters introduce VTT concepts such as light and vision blocking and one-click dynamic map effects gradually for those running the game, with helpful hints, tutorial videos, and links to community forums alongside the adventure text. The provided macro framework combines with Google Drive or Hero Lab character sheets to let players jump right into the action without knowing much about the VTT itself. All of this results in less time preparing for sessions, and more time playing.

Captured by Adventure is an introductory adventure module for 1st level PFRPG characters that is designed to introduce both new and experienced GMs and players to the digital tools of SyncRPG. It is the first module set in the Mirror Realms of the Tempest Campaign Setting and serves as the perfect way to start a new campaign in the campaign setting designed specifically for online play and SyncRPG’s tools. Players can expect to reach 4th level but only if they escape the Dankwood jungle and defeat their orcish pursuers!

If you’d like to see the tools and adventure content in action (and don’t mind spoilers!), there’s a playlist on our YouTube channel with recordings of all of our public playtests. You can watch as I use the web-based adventure module in combination with the ready-to-use VTT maps, tokens, and macros to run the adventure online, quickly and easily. We regularly cram 6-8 encounters into our three hour games, all thanks to having everything prepared and shared on SyncRPG!

We love hearing from people who enjoy our products, so speak up if you’ve tried them out! Let us know what you think, share screenshots, or look for players to join your game on our forums or our Google+ community!
