The Return of Mikaila series is specifically designed for cooperative play and you will not be able to complete it without at least two players. Some puzzles will scale to fit larger parties. This is not a hack-n-slash module, nor an instant action adventure.

Description
Ages come and go, each burying its secrets in the sands of time. Some ages slip quietly into history, while others end in explosions of fire and violence leaving permanent scars on the world. This is the story of two ages, one from years long forgotten, and another yet to begin. Like so many other heroic tales, it starts in an obscure place, a small town on the edge of nowhere in a land where man's biggest threat is himself. If you are looking for a group to play through this module with, I STRONGLY recommend Neverwinter Connections. This module includes an in-game module guide for the DM, giving backgrounds of NPCs and quests, as well as allowing the DM to control the flow of the game on the fly, although a DM is not required.
I'm going to download this tonite and check it out.
@ Steve_Savicki- I've seen a lot of your comments lately and they are always down voting things that are completely noted in the description. Why would you play a multiplayer mod in single player and then have the gall to complain about it? Same thing about over sexual mods when that is noted in the description too. It's unfair to the creator of the mod to down vote because you couldn't get a group of friends together to play it.

Somewhat clever, but same monsters became repetitious.
Also required more than one player; I had to use the console to get around.
Because of that, it was clear the author tried, but fell short. _________________________ Steve's Characters - please don't forget to vote on them if you play them.

great module, engaging, and I enjoyed the cooperative trap solving. Spelling errors were distracting but minor. I highly recommend this module!

Highly enjoyable module that my wife and I really enjoyed playing.
Where's chapter two?!

This was an excellent adventure. It started a little slow but that is my only complaint. Otherwise it was a fantastic blend of old school sensibility (resting rules, reasonable distribution of 'magic' items) and new technology. Very well balanced in terms of challenges as well. My wife was a bit frustrated at first since she has grown accustomed to the OC and the ability to 'go solo.' If you do that in this adventure you are sure to regret it.
My greatest disappointment is that there is no likelihood of ever being a 'chapter 2' :(

Fantastic little module. I just finished with three other friends and we all had a ball. The random distribution of treasure system forced us to cooperate. - Some of us like to horde treasure from the others. :-) Great tricks and traps that also forced cooperative play. But spars on the magical treasure and gold. Can�t wait for Chapter 2.

Just started the module. Just wanna ask Magi that WHY on Earth did you put that random item pick up distribution system?!? It sucks, there is Nothing good about it, and it doesn't make any sense. Otherwise the module seems fine, but that is one stupid feature which I hope we could turn off.

Very good starting adventure, went through it as two players, myself as a druid and the other as a ranger.
Puzzles very very nice, was expecting a last minute twist with the pattern but sadly not.
Initial encounters seemed a bit of a breeze, but scaled adequately.
Overall a very nice addy, didn't seem long enough for my tastes but definitely one I would use to break in new players or for a gamer group. Ending left me wanting more, seems a shame no followup story was made.
