Every GM is different, but a successful gaming session depends on striking a balance between planning and adapting in the moment. Some GMs plan for hours, and fill pages of notes to ensure that even if their PCs take a wrong turn, there’s a solution just around the bend. Others rely on improv and unique use of system rules, often planning very little and embracing the chaos.
Fortunately for GMs of all levels of planning and preparation, the Dungeons & Ruins Dungeon Tracker is a versatile tool than can change your game for the better. Whether you prefer to plan every detail or have only 20 minutes to plan a 3-hour session, the Dungeon Tracker is designed to adapt to your needs.
The tracker serves as a blueprint for designing and organizing the host of moving parts that make up a dungeon. It provides a simple, intuitive look at the features, factions, tables, bonuses, threats in just a few pages.
If you’re the type of GM who plans your dungeons down to every detail, the tracker can be used multiple times for each significant section of a more intense, sprawling dungeon, ensuring notes are organized and important details don’t get overlooked.
Alternatively, if you’re the type of GM in need of quick and easy planning, the tracker has you covered there too! Don’t just take our word for it, though. We recently tested it by having two of our Kobolds pick their favorite ‘dungeons’ from their favorite fandoms and lay them out on the tracker. The results were so good that we just had to share. You can download The Underworld and Shelter 22 Dungeon Trackers below, ready to play with the Tales of the Valiant RPG and the free Dungeons & Ruins Preview PDF.
The Dungeon Tracker is just one of the many tools available in the Campaign Builder: Dungeons & Ruins book, which is currently on Kickstarter. So, if you’re looking for more tools to put the dungeon back in dungeon crawl, back today before it’s too late!
