What Is the Difference Between a Dnd Campaign and a Module?
Here's your short and sweet answer, about the difference between a full DND campaign, a module/adventure, and a one-shot:
-
D&D Campaign: A long-running series of game sessions where players build and develop characters over a large, evolving storyline. Campaigns can last for months or even years, with intricate plots and character arcs.
-
D&D Module: A pre-written adventure provided by game creators, offering a structured narrative, characters, and locations. It’s a framework Dungeon Masters (DMs) use within campaigns or as standalone stories, making preparation easier.

D&D One-Shot: A self-contained adventure completed in a single session. Perfect for newcomers or quick gaming nights, one-shots are concise and have a clear, often simpler goal.
These structures lets players and DMs choose between immersive, long-term storytelling (campaigns), guided plots (modules), or short, standalone adventures (one-shots).
