Esse livro foi um presente para o mestre da mesa que jogo. Mal posso esperar pra gente morrer várias vezes nas mãos do vampiro mais babadeiro de Barovia hxjwbxjdbxkxn maravilhoso serio. A qualidade desse livro é surreal. O mapa é perfeito!!!

I'll start off with the bad. When I received my copy in the coffin-shaped box, I noticed that a single corner of the box was torn. I believe that this tear wasn't from poor quality but rather from weight shifting during transit and putting pressure on a weak point of the box, causing it to tear. It isn't that big of a deal to me personally but should be noted as a possibility.As for everything else in this box set, I see it as a major improvement on the standard book. The adventure is split into multiple paperback booklets, with each having different information for the adventure. Although the paperback design may make it more susceptible to wear and tear over time, I find it much easier to leaf through the paperbacks to find the information that I need.Since the material is broken down into booklets, it usually makes it easier to find what I need. I can have the adventure booklet open to set the scene while I flip through the monster booklet for the beast they might encounter. It's a welcome change to the usual appendices which I deal with in my standard hardback books.Unfortunately, it can still prove confusing to find certain information, as a certain NPC may only be described in one booklet, but not the other. This is a relatively minor complaint but I did find it strange at times.The other added materials are very nice too. Having a graphic of Strahd is a unique bonus as I could use it to show my players what they're up against, all while having a quick reference to the updated statblock on the other side. The map of Barovia is very nice and seems to be quality, although the map of Castle Ravenloft on the flipside is quite confusing as it shows different perspectives without fully annotating the changes between those perspectives.Also included are postcards which I found to be a unique touch for the adventure and a fun twist to formally invite players. The tarroka deck was also a welcome addition as it was included with a guide to using and reading the Deck. Although these are minor touches, they provide another level of immersion into a wicked horror adventure.I do want to quickly touch on the DM screen included in this box set. As someone who has made a small habit of trying to collect various DM screens, I have to say that this is my favorite screen by far. The colors are extremely pleasant and fit the atmosphere and the art is absolutely amazing. For the DM, it is an indispensable trove of information that makes running the adventure that much more of a blast.Overall, this box surpassed my expectations and, in some cases, blew them out of the water. There are some changes that took a while to grow on me before I fully appreciated them, such as having paperback booklets as opposed to a special cover hardback book, but in the end, these tweaks are unique and fun changes. I highly recommend this box set for any DM, aspiring DM or player looking to dip their toes into this amazing adventure!
