So much more than expected...
on May 6, 2024
Posted by: Lightescapism
I purchased this set after having seen the winning Lego Ideas submission and tracking the buildup to release... at first I was hesitant about the translation to commercial offering - the color scheme looked more whimsical than the IDEAS submission, which had a darker, grittier feel I liked. Ultimately, the new look grew on me and I took the plunge - and subsequently had the most enjoyable Lego building experience of my adult life.
The variety of environments, colors, creatures and secrets (there are so, so many!), coupled with the well-conceived modular design, made this set so satisfying to build. I indulge in Lego as a meditative escape from the daily grind... this build not only served that purpose, but it was fun and engaging in a wholly unexpected way. I was sharing some of the surprises that are hidden in the set with my kids, and kept stumbling on ones I had forgotten.
Lego really raised the bar with this set... for the price and size, I don't know of anything that rivals it (I've built the Lion Knight's Castle and Rivendell... both of which are fantastic... but I just had a ridiculous amount of fun with this one).
I would recommend this to a friend!

A Deceptive Dragon
on May 6, 2024

Just wanna first say that I absolutely adore this set and would almost consider buying a second one. It’s a fair value for what is given and the build experience felt fun and honestly unique. However, once I got to building the dragon I realized the box, and the promotional images had kinda lied. It is nearly, if not completely impossible to pose the dragon *on* or around the tower. Which was something I was somewhat banking on for how I was hoping to display the set as a whole. Other than that one little issue, the set is still incredibly and as long as the buyer is aware of the dragons independence, I highly recommend it.

Must have D&D set

The set is not inexpensive, but if you are able and a fan of D&D or other TTRPG’s, then this set is a must have!

Fun build and great monster designs! Could have used more minifigures, though. Other than that, no notes! Favorite Lego set of 2024 so far!

Rekindled my D&D love
on April 24, 2024

This is definitely the best set I've built in a while. I love so many things about it.
First, I love that there's a story, that there's a module to play along with the set (Insider reward). I love how the build instructions follow the story. You build the inn where the adventure starts. Then you build the meadow and dungeon, the travel and entrance. You build the tower next where the plot thickens. And finally the Dragon is assembled, the climactic confrontation.
I love the minifigs. I like the different races and classes, I like their design and accessories, I like that there are both male and female head pieces. If you want to play a female dwarf cleric, you do you.
I love the monsters. This set includes a good assortment of classic D&D monsters. I can't decide if my favorite is the beholder (visually delightful) or the gelatinous cube (clever design and part usage).
I had so much fun putting this together and reading and daydreaming about the adventure. The whole experience made me happy. Thank you to Lego and the designers who brought this to life.

Excellent build

This set was one of favorite builds in the last few years. Lists of interesting build techniques coupled with a beloved theme. I cannot recommend this set highly enough for a LEGO game who also enjoys D&D

It is a great set.

I am mainly just interested in the figures, all the weapons and handheld pieces, non-brick pieces and the creatures. But some are better then others but over all a great set.
