The Dungeonmaster makes a sequence of challenges into the organizing principle of a fantasy adventure. Each new environment has to establish its own problem quickly, so visual invention and changes of tone matter as much as continuous geography. Watch how technology is carried into situations that seem to demand magic; that mismatch gives the episodic structure its identity.
