I liked this module a lot and look forward to playing the sequel- lolthanchwi.

I ran into a few glitches during gameplay, but nothing a reload couldn't fix.

Some of the files seem to be corrupted, i get a lot of "could not be extracted" messages.

Very nice underdark module.Some minor annoyances, manageable with walking back and forth or reloading.Off to the sequel.

Just my kind of module! A lot of roleplaying here. Enjoyed it a lot, thanks!

A very well done remake of a classic, with the great virtues of the original. Well worth playing even if you played that one. All the good critics of the NWN1 version are valid again. Towards the end, things get different this time... and, in my oppinion, better! Music gets too epic and repetitive, even in anticlimatic moments: I turned it off!

All worked well for me but, in the human village, somebody mentioned some riders attacking that never showed up.

Also, a lot of time has passed, but I think that this one is quite shorter than the old one... wich is bad! 

Loved it. The Underdark has always been my D&D favorite setting ever, therefore it was nice playing it "from inside" as a native when usually all the trips that we take to the Underdark are as simple visitors (or to say better as prisoners or slaves). The module is quite heavy on combat but it also gives a lot of options to roleplay therefore I find that the balance is good. The story is very linear but never boring. No major bugs to report, just some small annoyances that, as many others said, can be easy solved with a reaload. And now off to the sequel.   

Up front, I don't like race or class restrictions in a game and I'm not a fan of forced companions. That said, this module puts you into the world described in RA Salvatore's books on the Drow. The ambition, the chaos, and the duplicity in an adventure that drives you along toward unknown ends in a struggle to survive and thrive with a knife at your back. While there are a few plot holes, and at least one bugged journal entry, none of that detracts from the story your PC can't seem to escape from the center of.

I also don't like playing evil characters but the author provided story-consistent paths for pragmatic play, allowing you to side-step some of the gratuitous evil the Drow are portrayed as enjoying. That is a feat not always accomplished in professional games and frankly rare in user-created content.

Nits (and really they're are just nits)

• The music is at times fairly out-of-sync with the game play in some areas. Starts to get annoying.
• Some of the dialog needs a serious spell checking. 
• At least one journal entry is wrong.
• The final outdoor area was almost disappointing after the brilliantly detailed Underdark.
• I know there were other mistakes but I was so into the plot that I literally forgot to write them down.

Game Play

This is fighter oriented. Partly that's because of limitations the writer faced in setting this plot in Drow society. I did take a few rogue levels which actually worked out pretty well. Resting is limited by supplies as well as location so if you do choose a PC with spell-casting abilities, don't plan to depend on them. 

The game begins in a foyer in limbo where you can set up your PC with advice from the Sage who provides info on difficulty levels and the game environment. There is also more than enough free gear to get you started. 

Overall, this is excellent work and even if not your normal genre, it's definitely worth a play-through.

This is the first non-official module I've ever played! I was eager to play in the Underdark setting since I'm researching for my first drow character in an actual D&D campaign. This totally helped me on that front. The design and story were intriguing, I did run into a couple of glitches where my character teleported or a mission completed without my knowledge. The journal didn't record my missions so sometimes I got a bit lost.

Still I highly recommend playing. 

Similar to Modesty, this was one of the first custom adventures I played-and still one of the most awesome ones. At this point of time I loved all the new caveern-tiles and custom monsters (behold the beholder!)

Proper Underdark-feeling guarantueed!

SPOILER WARNING

I really liked this adventure and wanna give some feedback. I do have a few criticisms but please don't feel bad, this was a fine adventure and I cant wait to try the sequel.

THE GOOD

• some of the levels are really good. I loved great chasm thingy that you went through during the solo stealth mission, and I was wonderstruck by the part where you pull the lever to let your boys through to wipe out the gnomes. Awesome.
• Very charming moments when the dark elves see the surface for the first time. Their reactions to things like trees and deer made me laugh out loud
• I really liked the balance between commanding armies and commanding a few guys. Sometimes you lead yourself and a few followers, other times you have a big mob of drow assassins and militia. This really spices up the variety of gameplay, and largely gets rid of that cliche where you're part of a big army but can only bring a few guys.
• A good amount of dialogue options here. Not nearly as much as the OC or MOTB, but enough to make you feel like you are in control of your character and his/her opinions on the situations most of the time
• relatively fun encounter design and variety. Umber hulks, deep gnomes, magic spiders, a few lizardmen, bugbears, and a few other creatures to do battle with. A lot of opportunities to use tactics too, such as chokepointing.

THE BAD

• Really anticlimactic ending. I was super disappointed when the creatures that drove the dark elves back underground were elementals. I thought for sure there was going to be some sort of battle with a gang of pitchfork-wielding militiamen or some other threat from the actual surface-dwellers.
• Complete lack of a rogue for the first third or half of the game. Had to knowingly trigger several traps because I had no means of disarming them. That coupled with the fact that numerous traps did large amounts of constitution damage was really frustrating. 
• Inventory management was tiresome. In order to rest, you have to bring camping supplies, but they are really heavy. Because I'm always terrified of not being able to replenish my spells, I made sure to bring as many as my party could carry, which made it really annoying whenever we came across valuable gear to pick up. That coupled with relatively scarce merchants to sell loot to made inventory management thouroughly annoying.
• Sometimes felt like dialogue options were missing. For example, when the priest chick killed off calulith, I wasn't given any option whatsoever to complain or show dissatisfaction, which sucked because I was starting to grow attached to him. Stuff like this is slightly immersion-breaking because you aren't fully able to roleplay your character in important moments.
