"Book of Many Things" REVIEW: Worth Your Money?

The Wizards Of The Coast have just released The Book of Many Things for 5th Edition Dungeons & Dragons, and I’m going to talk at you about it. I’ll let you know if it’s any good, and particularly, if it’s worth your money.

This was a perfect video that gave me the exact info i was looking for. Thank you!

[@wizardsling]

Glad it was helpful!

I have three bookcases full of RPG books. The only WotC item is Art & Arcana. This latest book will not change that :D Neat vid though. Oh, I lied. I also have the 4e DMG which I think I picked up after one of your 'Steal These Rules' videos!

[@wizardsling]

Art & Arcana is fantastic. Love that book

[@wbbartlett]

Yep, it's amazing. I also have _The World of TSR_ which is pretty neat too and along the same lines. @@wizardsling

[@darcyw156]

Great video! Actually want to buy this one. Everyone else's review made me not even care. That donjon sphere is an amazing idea that I would love you check out. Thanks for this one. Cheers

[@wizardsling]

Glad you enjoyed it!

My old group used to run across the deck a lot, nearly every session in fact. Oddly enough most of those were from the DM rolling on the random treasure tables, had some great and terrible times with it. I'm glad you're enjoying it but I think I'll pass personally, I already have stuff for random encounters(AD&D second edition deck of encounters 1 and 2.)and other such things, the art was very nice though. Looking forward to your review of the physical deck. =^_^=

[@wizardsling]

thanks!

I was hoping the Book of Many Things would have, ya know, many things. Disappointed to see its so niche. Thanks for the review.

[@wizardsling]

I mean, it has feats, backgrounds, maps, one-shots, magic items, monsters, lore drops, and more.

[@Doncergio]

Very good review thnx

[@TakaD20]

Sounds interesting. But if I'm not mistaking, it's 99 bucks... and that's too much for some ideas to drop in ones campaign.

[@wizardsling]

that's the full price for the print + digital + card set version. Just the books or digital only are cheaper

[@argentumtaibhsear621]

How did you get an advanced copy? You can't buy it until the 14th?

[@wizardsling]

I'm kind of a big deal. (Just kidding) I got early access because I preordered.

[@argentumtaibhsear621]

@@wizardslingLikely story. Clearly a shill, lol.

[@CRAZY6256]

I cant find where to buy the book. Not on amazon.

[@wizardsling]

it's out of print, so you might have to hunt. I got mine on eBay

[@robertthompson3077]

@@wizardsling The set is delayed until January. Bad quality cards have to be replaced before they will release it. I believe the book alone is only available on D&DBeyond as digital

[@PhalisoBringerOfDoom]

I'd really like a video about the deck zodiac signs, those sound interesting

[@wizardsling]

That part didn't really make sense to me. I guess you draw a card and it relates to some made-up zodiac system, and that helps define your PC's personality.
