This DnD starter kit is what I was waiting to go on sale before I bought it. While I know the characters from the old cartoon are displayed on the box and in the pics in the docs they are not used in the actual campaign. But was still enough to make me buy it

It's a good set, but it's definitely not the best for new DMs

Probably the worst of the starter sets

For the price, this is the worst of the starter sets. with Lost Mines of Phandelver and Dragon of Icespire Peak frequently available for under ten dollars, you could pick up both for the price of this and have much, much more material. This box is mostly air. There's a set of cheap dice - one each. There's the rules book and the adventure book. There's a cardboard piece to take up space. That's it. The adventure is okay, not great. About half a dozen encounters total, none particularly creative or cohesive. The overarching story is not interesting but contrived. Overall this adventure left a lot to be desired, especially for the price. Buy Lost Mines or Dragon of Icespire Peak for better starting adventures. Download the free basic rules and a free starting adventure (there's plenty free or very cheap online from various sources). Get all three for less than the price of this box set. You'll have more material to work with and not lose anything in terms of advice for beginners.

This is the 3rd starter set for D&D 5th Edition. It comes with dice, characters, the rules, and a great introductory adventure for an aspiring (or experienced) Dungeon Master and up to 5 players. In the vein of the Starter Set's: Lost Mine of Phandelver and the Essentials Kit's: Dragon of Icespire Peak this set details a small area and rough sandbox of quests and encounters ultimately culminating in a finale for everyone. This set is geared towards new players and DMs with no prior experience, and walks through the basics of playing and running the game.

This adventure is lackluster and the art had absolutely nothing to do with the adventure itself. I was stoked to see the art and that’s about it. I believe WOTC fell short on this one, back to the drawing board for you guys
it's a fun adventure. suitable for beginners. nothing super complicated.

This is a great starter kit for DnD. It gives a fun campaign with some decent premade characters. I only wish they had included a redemption code for DnD Beyond like they had with the Essentials Kit.

No D&D Beyond code
4 out of 5 stars
Would recommend
Brandalgo - 8 months ago, Verified purchaser
I haven't played through the campaign yet, but by the looks of it it sounds fun. It is nice to add another beginner campaign to the list so I can play with other new players and not have to use the same starter campaign again. Comes with 1 set of dice (no bag to hold them in), campaign book, rule book, and premade character sheets. Condition of the box and contents were perfect, no complaints there. I was a little sad that the box didn't include any D&D Beyond codes like the Essentials Kit did. In fact, at the time of purchase, this campaign isn't even available on D&D Beyond at all. I think this might be because of the Target exclusivity. But still, I don't understand why WoTC doesn't include a free code for D&D Beyond or at least a discount code of some sort. I prefer using the physical copies more often than the digital ones, but it is still nice to have both. But there is NO WAY I am going to pay full price for both versions. In the Essentials Kit, I got a free copy on D&D Beyond AND they included 3 MORE campaigns to play through after the main one included in the physical set. So why they don't at least give us the digital copy of this Starter Set seems odd. Until they start including codes in their products (or discounts) I will probably have to rate 4 stars or less.

This is our 3rd premade set purchase. Same items as usual a set of dice, pre-made character sheets and a story to run through. The story is fantastic. No ship battles, but you get to meet dragons and fight some monsters that are not the typical goblin sort. I reccomend adding it to your collection or even just buying it as a starter for new players.
