Quest Of The Skeleton Warrior
- The kids are trapped in their own minds and facing their fears. Sheila's biggest fear is being completely alone. Seeing her curl up in a Troubled Fetal Position and about to cross the Despair Event Horizon is heartbreaking.
The Treasure Of Tardos
- The moment where we find out that Dungeon Master is Venger's dad and is still depressed over losing him is surprisingly effective.
The Last Illusion
The Dragon's Graveyard
- Dungeon Master's response to the kids' rage: calm, quiet... defeated. Even without knowing his relationship to Venger, when he says "Is that all? May I go now?" you know he's lost all hope.
- It's heartbreaking to see the kids themselves, frustrated to the point where they're angry at Dungeon Master, willing to cross a line against Venger. Bobby is just a ten-year-old kid, trapped on an alien world forced to battle monsters, and he breaks down crying because he just wants to go home and see his parents again.
Child Of The Stargazer
- Diana and Kosar. Just as sad as Presto and Varla... and worse, because they don't get their happy ending. Even the Dungeon Master is sad at that.
