If you are new to D&D (like me), then this product is a great introduction to the game. It comes with everything you need to get started, and there is barely any reading involved. It also comes with a set of dice... If you already have experience with the D&D game (ie. Second Edition) then just go and buy the Players Handbook, as you will likely pick up the game more quickly than us noob's ;-) There is only one draw back, the rules are very simplified, perhaps to much so. That is why this gets only 4 stars rather than 5. On a seperate note I thought the layout was great, the little 'read me first' sheet on top was very helpful with getting started. In conclusion the game is a good introduction to D&D if some what limiting (ie. You can only progress to second level, and it doesn't give much of a feel of roleplaying, just the hack 'n slash elements of the game.)

For those of you wanting to start as 1st level PCs, and want an introduction to the world of the 3rd edition, then this is the place to start. You've got all you could ever want, dice, character sheets, characters and outine adventures. I've already tried it out with a bunch of novices and we had a great time. The only criticism would be that some of the adventures are a little bit on the simple side, and over far too quickly. However, if you also a new DM, then this is a great way of getting you feet wet, so dive in.

For anyone who hasn't played D and D before but remembers the classic board game Hero Quest - this will bring tears of joy. Included in the box is everything you need start in the realm of Dungeons and Dragon without reading those long-winded and really expensive Core Rulebooks. The rules, although childsplay, give enough scope (and monsters!) to keep your band adventuring for years. This set included a play-mat (which looks almost identical to the original Heo Quest board) representing miles of dark passage-ways and rooms, a set of D20 dice (worth £5 elsewhere!), plus loads of counters to represent your adventurers, the evils hordes and scenery bits. Buy this, play it with your old school friends (and your Dad who had to help put together all the HQ pieces, 10 years ago), and love it...

Nice but not perfect
Well it's great, for beginners but I played it with my friends and we cant move some stuff to normal D&D.

This is a fairly decent game
This game is quite decent; however, it could do with a few improvements, mainly in the way everything is laid out.
