I find this product rushed and the maps uninspired. There are some decent ideas involved but nothing that some critical thinking or talking it out on reddit/discord/etc. won't get you. I bought it pretty early, so perhaps it helped form my foundations for this game. Hard to tell. On chapter 4 of the book now and I haven't opened any of these documents since Chapter 1. I don't think I ever used the maps included. Caveat is that newer DMs or DMs who just want some help with contingencies may find great use from these. If someone already plays a heavily imporvized game or intends to go very far off-book with the adventure in general, then they are probably already thinking about advanced concepts like in this product.
Giving 2 out of 5 stars because it did help me with the carnival and because there is one more suggstion that I thought was fantastic.
