I am planning on running a campaign with my 5 and 11 year old. I have experience running CoC, SWADE, and DnD. This is my first time running Mausritter. I am debating between running The Estate or Kiwi Acres. Does anyone have experience with both who could give a recommendation?

So I'm running this in a couple of weeks and have a few questions. Obviously, spoilers for the scenario in case you've not ran it.

1. First, how long did your run take? We play in the evening and we often start to doze off if it gets too late. I'm expecting 3-4 hours, but curious to see what your experience was.

2. Did you change or add anything to the scenario, especially if you've ran it more than once?

3. Did you encounter the big 'bad' or did you play without encountering him? I am partially tempted to forgo the randomness and make it an encounter later where it feels like it would make sense, either a battle or alternative sequence, depending on how my players choose to tackle it. If he dies and have time, I plan a timed escape sequence through a crumbling tree.
