It is no secret that Tunnels & Trolls (previously reviewed here) is my current go-to fantasy roleplaying system. The Delver's Pack boxed set expands upon the 7.5 boxed set, and I ran out and bought it as soon as I was able. It contains a GM adventure, a solo adventure, Monstrous Codex II (over 80 new monsters), Codex Incantatem II (higher-level spells), a pad of character sheets, and two d6's that match the ones in the core box. Conspicuously missing are cardstock counters for the new monsters. Still, it's a solid companion piece to the core rules. No, it's not a densely packed as the core box, but it's also ten bucks cheaper. The box size is identical, so they sit nicely together on the bookshelf.
The solo adventure, TERRoR, was previously released as a 5th edition adventure, but has been updated for 7.5. Until recently it was available from Outlaw Press, until that company vanished in the wake of scandal and controversy.
Overall, good touch if you want more T&T 7.5 stuff. I'm hoping that Fiery Dragon comes out with a 3rd boxed set in the series, possibly focused on the setting. I'd like more background, perhaps some regional or city maps, and more cardstock counters for monsters..
A word about reviews and ethics

Actually, TERRoR was designed for 7th edition. It's a kind of sequel to the Deathtrap Equalizer Dungeon of early days. I guess you didn't find the sexy troll girl sequence, or you'd have more to say about it. :)
