Tomb of the Rancid King *

Tomb of the Rancid King *

By Justin Andrew Mason

During a tense battle in craggy terrain, the ground suddenly rumbles beneath your feet. A violent sinkhole swallows combatants and boulders alike, sending them tumbling thirty feet into a dark, cavernous chamber.

This is the long-lost tomb of the infamous warlord Daruig Danan, known in life as The Rancid King. Feared for his tyrannical rule, Danan’s death ignited a bloody civil war between his twin sons, Gildan and Rhodig — both of whom perished and were interred alongside their father.

Now, the adventurers must survive the dangers of this ancient crypt, uncover the tragic history within, and face the twisted remnants of the Rancid King’s reign.

Mysteries of the Endless Maze


Justin Andrew Mason’s Mysteries of the Endless Maze is an amazing little puzzle-dungeon… All in all, a well-crafted mini-dungeon worth of a final verdict of 5 stars.
