Synopsis[]

Mystery of the Snow Pearls is a solo scenario for one character, although it can be adapted to group play.[1] The player character must solve the riddles of an evil mage to regain the magic pearl which protects the character's village.[1]

The player character is a Companion level elf, responsible for safeguarding one of the four, magical pearls that protect the land of Tarylon. Milgo, an evil wizard with a sense of humour, challenges the elf to find and return the lost item. Without it, the entire region is threatened.

This adventure uses a "Magic Viewer" - a piece of colored film - to reveal the hidden results of the player's choices.[1] This includes encounters, puzzles, and traps.

Publication history[]

Mystery of the Snow Pearls was written by Anne Gray McCready, with a cover by Larry Elmore, and was published by TSR in 1985 as a 32-page booklet with an outer folder, and also includes a large map and colored film.[1]
