I sort of liked the Farm Quest where you're chasing ducks to their various locations and killing them off. Specifically, I like how their presence is reflected on the map.

I thought it might be interesting if one of the levels culminated in a fight (or many) against one ginormous/hugemungous monster that was likewise visible from the map and had to be tracked. This could parody Godzilla, Cloverfield, the Tarasque, Voltron, Power Rangers, etc. and you might have to fight through hordes of little monsters to get to him (with the encounter with him being sort of a random event). Perhaps he could be called The Tarafield Zillasque or some such nonsense. I figure that, like many stepwise adventures, many of the "encounters" would really be peeling away at the monster in a non-combat way to soften him up for eventual defeat via real combat. Of course, maybe Jick & Co. could give you the option of fighting him head on and getting annihilated if you think you're just that cool (and some KoLers are, actually). I think that could be pretty cool with the right implementation. I mean, there are boss fights so far, but nothing like the classic Mega Monsters that pillage the countryside and are visible from the horizon. On the other hand, I wonder if Jick would create a "Drag-On Quest" like the Quest for the Holy MacGuffin if given a chance.

Not that I'd petition for it, but there's no moon-base yet. On the other hand, this isn't James Bond, so I guess there doesn't have to be one.

And, unless I missed something, there are no Underwater maps with associated adventures. That's another genera that's missing.

That's all for now.
