Publication history
Garden of the Plantmaster was written by Robert Kuntz, and was published by Creations Unlimited, Inc., in 1987 as a 72-page book.[1]
Garden of the Plantmaster was the last publication from Creations Unlimited, although the adventure itself was older than the Maze of Zayene series of adventures. The adventure had been developed as a special area in the original adventures Castle Greyhawk dungeons in 1974-1975, while Kuntz used it in its completed form in his Lost City of the Elders and it was also closely tied to the adventure Mordenkainen's Fantastic Adventure.[2]: 241
Kenzer & Company reprinted the adventure as Garden of the Plant Master in 2003.[2]: 242
Reception
Stewart Wieck reviewed The Garden of the Plantmaster in White Wolf #9 (1988), rating it a 3/8 out of 10 and stated that "the product has been rated in two ways. The number given before the slash is representative of the adventure, but the second (higher) number represents GP's worth as a sourcebook. Mr. Kuntz has proven that he is capable of better works than this. Creations Unlimited says that they are 'the new wave in FRP games', so perhaps once the current gets moving a tidal wave will result."[3]
