Tips for Running Sandboxes Like Vallaki in D&D

Sandboxes are often held as the gold standard of types of D&D games to run. The town of Vallaki from the module Curse of Strahd is a great example of a SANDBOX city/adventure. And yet, Vallaki can also be a great example of a hot sloppy mess--a disaster just waiting for the game session to begin. In this video, I discuss how I ran Vallki as a sandbox, and give tips for running sandboxes like it.
