Contents

The ''Islands of Terror'' module is set in the '' Ravenloft'' campaign setting, adding nine new islands with evil lords, but no new information about ''Ravenloft'' itself. It is well organized, with entertaining stories, good character development, and "very good" graphics and illustrations. According to reviewer Gene Galloway, the work "primarily provides more lands in which to adventure but no adventures themselves". Floor plans of buildings and features are drawn on 10×10 grids which add to playability.


Publication history

The module was published by TSR.


Reception

Gene Galloway reviewed ''Islands of Terror'' in the May–June 1993 issue of ''White Wolf'' magazine, providing it a rating of 3 out of a possible 5. Galloway stated that "the strength of the stories and the depth of the background provided for the new lands is impressive, and definitely worth looking at", and thought that "Overall, Islands of Terror is good for Ravenloft and for entertainment, but not necessarily important to the game."
