Love it

You guys are awesome!

It’s fantastic… but!

Honestly it’s fantastic. I love everything. But, if I had one wish… I wish there was a print out for every single map. Even the mono color hand drawn maps.

Beautiful Set!

This set has everything and more! It’s certainly going to be fun playing / DM’ing this! I like that it has the separate story lines in different folders, which makes it so much easier than flipping pages in a book. Maps are awesome, and the relics / figurines add to the experience. Love it!

Awesome!

Very great! A bit sad I wasn’t able to get the edition that had the props and maps but that didn’t take a thing away from the book it’s awesome!

Amazing box set for Planescape Games

Truly outstanding box for all GM's looking to run the Planescape 5e adventure Turn of Fortunes Wheel. Comes with beautiful and high quality handouts for the whole party and GM, amazing and would recommend to anyone who is looking to run the adventure. The cloth maps are outstanding and really have the resolution and quality that you would like to have them both as references and player aids. The additional adventure is fun and blends seamlessly after the first area of the campaign. 10/10 would buy again.

The Box, The Price, and The Crit Symbol (The Good, The Bad, The Ugly)

[DISCLAIMER: product received at a significantly reduced cost due to a promotional code]
My goal with leaving this review is to give earnest feedback on these sets as I absolutely LOVE the idea of them but I feel several areas missed the mark for me. First, let's start with the good. I purchased the Tomb of Horrors (ToH) box and the felt-lined box that looks like a book is so, so cool! I absolutely love how it looks and how it functions as a dice tray. Absolutely awesome! The oversized coin as well? Very cool! I like it; it is a bit weighty for regular table use but it's a neat token.
Next, 'the bad': the price. I believe when I made my purchase these sets were listed for $50. I am gladdened to see them now reduced to $30. $50 was positively preposterous for these sets. These are clearly collectibles, and, as I said, the box is awesome to behold! Still, $30 is far fairer a price than what was asked for when these sets first started out. One potential way I see to cut costs for future similar sets is to discard the cards. The collectible cards in the set had little value to me. I hate writing something like that, as I can understand the effort that went into them, but it still stands that the cards had absolutely no impact on my opinion of the set. The information on them felt superficial, and widely known. The artwork wasn't new or novel, either. I don't feel the need or perceived value for them to be included.
Now for what I have dubbed 'the ugly': the crit (20) symbol on the oversized D20. If you asked me what it was and I had no idea what ToH was... I would think it was a gargoyle? Maybe? A gargoyle with a large splotch of yellow paint where the mouth should be. It looks... well, ugly. I've been a big fan of intricately-designed dice for years now and this crit symbol is really lacking. The other dice (and sides of the oversized D20) are excellently crafted; the numbers are bright and defined. The D20, however... really got me. I genuinely don't want to roll a 20 with it because it looks like there's an odd, oblong yellow triangle where the 20 should be. It is prohibitively expensive to purchase these sets at full price with something akin to a smudge as the centerpiece.
Now, admittedly, I want more of these. As I said, I LOVE the idea (and I'm happy they've seen a reduction in price), but these would be absolutely EPIC items if more attention was placed on the dice, themselves. An easily-identifiable critical hit symbol is essential to sets like these in my opinion. Again, I do quite like the box, and the coin is a good token, but if I am purchasing a "dice set" my main focus is always on the quality (and art) of the dice. I absolutely love the ideas Beadle & Grimm's puts out and I will of course continue to support this awesome company, but this dice set really disappointed me.

Glad you loved the felt-lined box and coin! Understand if the art cards aren't your cup of tea, and we're bummed you didn't like that Tomb of Horrors demon head image for the 20 on the oversized d20. Thanks for the shout out about supporting us as a company, even if this set didn't hit home for you! We really appreciate it.
