Dungeons & Dragons: Adventure Begins - How-To-Play Trailer

[billome]

Been playing this for a few days now. My personal hack is to have one person play as the dungeon master. This works out better and makes play smoother especially if you are playing with kids.

I play the DM and tell a short story for the kids as each encounter happens. They love it and and it keeps them off the Xbox for a couple hours

Why all the negativity, they are trying something else with the brand, I think it’s looks great fun and my 8yr old daughter will love it, easy to get out and play with her friends without having to try and teach them 5E.

I bought this just to have because I like nerdy things and thought maybe us as a family could play together. I haven't played dnd in 25 years. My wife never has and hated the idea of doing nerdy things. My 5 year old daughter is up for anything that looks cool. We kinda changed the rules and I played as just the dm weaving a story together as we went.
This game brought us together and we had so much fun. My 5 year old absolutely loved it. The fun I had creating a story and embellishments of their descitions and adventure cards. We laughed and were amused the whole time. Alot of fun. Im glad I purchased this and put the effort in. My daughter repeatedly asks to play. Just change it up. Be the dm and feed off the adventure cards and spin a funny tale for your children. Im glad I purchased this. It took me back and inspired me to just have fun again pretending. Thank you for this video it helped alot.

I'm all for more people playing DnD. If a more simplified version of them introduces them to the game, I am all for that. If people are negative about this it's because they forgot how daunting learning this game can be. Those of us from the thac0 era understand that this is like HeroQuest. An easily accessable entry into the genre.

We bought this to play with the kids. Ages 8, 10, 12 and 15. We all had a blast. ...except my 15 year old lol but she's at that age. Excellent game. We play loads of board games this is still on the top of the stack a year later.

We have bought this to introduce our boys to D&D.
Perfect timing as our household is down with covid. Perfect way to spend isolation with the children to distract them from feeling rubbish. We've laughed and enjoyed embellishing the stories and all had a go at being dungeon master. Brilliant way to bring a smile to everyone's face

Been playing D&D for a few years now and wanted to show my wife and my 9-yo daughter what the heck dad was doing every week.

They love playing it! And they now understand the basic mechanics. I do freestyle a bit, playing as DM myself and doing some extra world building. Creative decisions or attacks get a harder difficulty when throwing their D20's and critical fails get dramatic results. Next step would be drawing my own map and going off-world. It's some cool little additions like this that add an extra dimension.

The concept is actually cool... Experienced DMs can actually customize and add things in the game... well thats what I did and it actually worked great! It solves the limited replayability problem.

Just ordered this to introduce myself and my kids to Dungeons and Dragons.
I’m fairly familiar with it from listening to The Adventure Zone, and I’m loving the idea that my kids can participate and get used to the idea so that when they’re a bit older, we can attack some real campaigns.
A great idea, and a low entry price-point.
Well done WotC

We bought this 3 days ago. It's fun and easy to learn. We play it with our 10yo. I highly recommend it because it's detailed enough to be intriguing and quick enough to keep the younger kids focused. We really like how the more complex games (like D&D, Catan, etc) are making pared-down family versions. The investment is reasonable to start learning how to play before upgrading to the more intricate boards. Thank you for this tutorial too.

This is a nice way to introduce young children to role playing terms and D&D names.

Love this game, as a beginner getting into dnd a pile of complicated books really overwhelmed me so this is a good beginning.

[AF-gepe]

This is the best introduction to the genre I'd ever get. I'm so happy

[MsGinahidesout]

This has been a fantastic way for me to introduce new players to D&D

[BuzzKirillD]

"All players must get up and dance the dance of their people" - it was at this point I realized the game was not for me :D even though I was looking to play a very light version of D&D boardgame with adults

[JBWYT]

This is an extremely well produced, clear, and concise informational video, great work! 😁

[coolspot]

Tried playing D5e with my 5 and 8 year old... it was a bit too complex, this might be perfect to get the family started! I picked up a copy at Walmart.

I made a new thing for this game called “rage mode” exclusive to the boss. When boss reach half hp, it enter rage mode and all attacks deal 2x damage.

[garrettcrouch]

Never been in interested in dnd until my friend showed me this at party and I’ve never had so much fun would definitely buy and not feel ripped
