D&D starter set for kids
Will you join the call to adventure?
Skip the thick tome of rules and simply embark on an adventure! One player acts as the Game Master - the narrator and keeper of lore - and the rest of the players instantly transform into a party of hopeful heroes on a shared quest. The learn-as-you-go adventure book will introduce gameplay rules only when they become relevant to the story.
The Adventure Guide: Secrets of Enduril is designed for kids, families, and new players. The set contains everything you need to start adventuring together right away!
Coming this summer!
