TheLEGO Dungeons and Dragons set is without a doubt, one of the most exciting and impressive sets of 2024, and after immersing myself in the build, I can safely say that LEGO and Wizards of the Coast have come together to produce an exceptional set.
Next we have the two non-player characters (NPCs), the innkeeper Alax Jadescales, and the evil sorcerer Ervan Soulfallen. Alax is a dragonborn and his minifigure has a really nice tunic, and I love the printed details on his legs.
Next we have an Owlbear, another DnD cornerstone, and this is also a pretty nice creature build. there are some nice details like its claws, and the use of different colours and slopes to give it a shaggy look.
The adventurers begin their journey at the Inn, aptly named Inn Plain Sight. The Inn is operated by Alax Jadescales, but in the campaign is run by Merry Rumwell, who is Ervan in disguise, and has imprisoned Alax somewhere else after assuming control of the Inn.
Moving up the tower, we encounter a 5-headed dragon shrine, with a mysterious dragon orb in the middle! DnD fans will immediately recognise this as a shrine to Tiamat, the 5-headed queen of evil dragons!
Awesome review!
I am currently half way through the build and I love this set.
As a dungeon crawl boardgamer and D&D fan this was a must buy. There are so many things to explore here. When finished it will get a prominent place on one of my hobby room.
A lot of D&D is about the players exploring and discovering the story as they go, and it relies heavily on the heroes not being able to see a lot of the information. The DM guides the players through the story (or lets them go off in their own direction and builds the world out as they explore.) The DM also needs to adjudicate the rules when things are unclear.
