Great series
So many amazing characters and the nostalgia is real.
The soundtrack is astounding and the setting is fantastic
Totally hopes it gets people into DND and all things Stephen King and nerdy
The only problems I had was the repetition with 11 and her powers but also it had a bit of a lull half way through.

The Greatest Ever Roleplaying Game? Damn Straight!
Dungeons and Dragons. A game released in 1974, 5 editions in and every time they out do themselves.

This game is fantastic for a number of reasons. Firstly, there are thousands of groups playing across the world, and this game is only getting more and more popular. This means, if you don't have any friends who want to play this, you can find a local group and join them, most of my closest friends I have met through DnD. Its perfect for anyone, most people are misfits and as such you form the closest bonds both in game and out of game.

I have now been playing DnD for the past two years straight, every Tuesday and Thursday; and yet I still haven't got bored. Every game is different, one week you're killing a dragon, the next week you're travelling across country with a Creepy Puppet Maker called Borris.

The leader of the group (AKA Dungeon Master) plans a rough idea of what is going to happen (it never does) and then as a group of players you walk around the world trying to accomplish quests. All of this is down to the fate of the dice. So no two games will ever be the same.

Honestly this is one of the games I will always return to and I plan on teaching my kids.

TL;DR
-Fun to Play.
-Available in most towns (and spreading across the country).
-Always different.
-Great to meet new people.
-Free Basic sourcebooks available from Wizards of the Coast

What a horror game
Wow wow wow!! This game is like DnD, but the dungeon master is through the app. The app tells the story, tells what monsters appear, and keeps track of the story line. It is really nice because everyone playing can work together to finish the story and no one has to read aloud! The app details set up and where clues are.
The mystery is real. Going into the game no one knows anything. Monsters jump out at you, you have to figure out real puzzles and codebreakers to find clues. This game is pricey but one story takes an afternoon and is thrilling! By the end we were yelling at the TV trying to beat all the monsters! This game is amazing!

We’ve done well. As we progress and load the channel up with content, I can honestly say I am enjoying it all. I get to play boardgames new and old and ones not on the shelf yet. We have made friends along the way and have had nothing but praise and thanks. We at Summoned Games are More than welcome to help along the way with your boardgame ideas and projects. I’d love to create a portfolio of games and accessories we assured in so far but, that would make me relax too much. Over a 1000 followers on Instagram, we are close to hitting 100 Subscribers on YouTube, and I’m preparing a dnd session for our step into live streaming. Yeah Twitch and YouTube best be ready.
In other news we will be there at ukgames expo 2020!!! We are going to try and game, record and get ourselves out there and help promote where we can.
Come along and join us here https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7rZ1n5-FI76nAN8GSsjvRQ or on www.facebook.com/Summoned-Games and stay in touch.

The next best thing to playing a rpg with friends. Probably a little better, depending on those friends. (0 more)
I find my self yelling at the players while driving. (0 more)
Ok I'm a little obsessed
I was introduced to the glass cannon by a friend who gets to play pathfinder and DnD way more than me. Ok I haven't played in over a decade but I've been wanting to play again. I started listening to this when I was in between audio books and to play vicariously since I lack the friends. I started at the beginning (which is way back) listening during my commute and became quickly hooked. I've burned through 65+ episodes in just a month or so and I'm now adding cannon fodder to that commute list. I love the story telling and game play that I've missed out on by not playing for so many years! It has inspired me to play again and I am even starting to GM myself one campaign with my family and one with some of my students. Im sure i will get caught up in now time at this rate. Its been so fun geeking out with people I've never met.

Played a DnD 5e one off over the weekend. It went reasonably well, we had a new player who enjoyed herself. My friend Glen, is in the process of converting a lot of the old Mystara content to 5e and wanted to test the balance of the adventure. The party consisted of a Variant Human Cleric of War (who worshipped Nob Nar, the Halfling god of adventure), a Gnome Wizard and a Phanaton (flying squirrel person) Rogue.

The adventure was called The Khan and the Duchess and started with the party working as caravan guards for a gnome caravan that gets attacked by Goblins. The party fared well in the attack and even recovered some of the stolen goods, drovers and guards from a nearby goblin camp. The sessions wrapped up with the party attending a high society social gathering with the caravan master as thanks.

There is more to come but we seem to be off to a good start. We used it as a way to do a streaming test for recording out tabletop games for future sessions and it seemed to work pretty well.

Looking forward to more playing, as I am most often found in the GMs chair.

It Does What It Says On The Box.
Dungeon in a Box! Is a monthly subscription based service which works as an add-on to DnD. This service is fantastic and I cannot compliment it enough.

Firstly, each month you get a new game which follows an ongoing storyline. (However they can all be run as single games).

In the Box:
-A DM's manual
-2 X Reaper/Bones Mini's
-1 X Map (Double sided)
- Multiple Acrylic Mini's
-Dungeon tiles

So starting with the DM's Manual. Most boxes come with a 20-30 page book. This book is hugely detailed and contains the full story for the month in intense detail. Many tables (which I for one will be using in other games), Different encounter sheets, and full stats and descriptions of the Main NPC's.

The Reaper/Bones minis provided in the box do not correlate to the game in the box. However they are a nice touch, as it allows you to improve your Mini collection, and gives you Minis most players will not already own.

The map is printed on high quality ~120gsm paper. This map is highly detailed and the print quality is incredible. (In the first box you also receive a map of the world). The map is 24"x18" in size, so a decent battlefield. These have great reusability, the only downside is that you cannot use dry erase markers on them. (However this is a small issue in comparison).

You get a sheet of minis that can be flat packed very quickly. The print quality on them is great and as they can be dismantled, they require very little space for storage. My only downside of these is they are not the strongest, so when fitting the bases you need to push them down while using a table to avoid them snapping. (However if like me you did that and they still snap, they will send you replacement minis free of charge. GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE!!)

Finally the dungeon tiles. These are again very highly printed and are printed on a ~800gsm cardboard. Sturdy and robust these tiles are all double sided and scaled to the inch so you can reuse them for many games.

TL;DR
-Good Quality
-Good Value
-Reusable Supplies
-Great Customer Service
