{"product_id":"pathfinder-game-night-dawn-of-the-frogs-deluxe-adventure-3-adventures","title":"Pathfinder Game Night: Dawn of the Frogs Deluxe Adventure, 3 Adventures","description":"\u003ch2\u003eA low-cost way to try Pathfinder for one evening or three\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePathfinder Game Night: Dawn of the Frogs is the smaller sibling of the Beginner Box. It strips the package down to what a group needs to play right away: an adventure book, dice, poster maps, pawns and pregenerated characters. If you want to find out whether your friends enjoy Pathfinder before committing to a bigger purchase, this is the cheapest playable route on the list.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThree short swamp adventures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 32-page adventure book holds three short adventures for 1st level characters, all set in the mysterious Dunmire swamp. Short scenarios are a smart format for beginners. Each one can fill a single evening, and if the group loves it, you simply play the next. If not, you have lost very little. Paizo describes the adventures as suitable for new players and new Game Masters, with easy-to-follow rules and storylines that introduce core Pathfinder mechanics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMaps for every fight\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne detail worth noting: the box includes poster maps for all combat locations. That removes one of the most common headaches for a first-time Game Master, which is drawing or improvising battlefields. Put the map down, place the character and enemy pawns, and the whole table can see the situation at a glance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat you get\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA 32-page adventure book with three short adventures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFour pre-generated player characters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePoster maps covering every combat location\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCharacter pawns and enemy pawns\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDice for play at the table\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCurrent rules, lighter guidance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe box is updated for the Pathfinder Second Edition Remaster, so what you learn carries straight into current books and adventures. The trade-off is depth. There is no separate player handbook or Game Master's guide in the listed contents, and the heroes come pregenerated, so you will not learn character building from this box alone. Groups that want that grounding should look at the Secrets of the Unlit Star Beginner Box instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy it ranks fourth\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompared with the boxes above it, Dawn of the Frogs has fewer components and less instruction, but it delivers a complete, playable Pathfinder experience at the lowest cost among the games we ranked. That makes it the value pick rather than the best overall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it is for\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBudget-conscious groups, a one-off game night with friends, or an experienced Game Master who wants a quick, ready-made Pathfinder session without prep. It is also a sensible second box for a group that finished the Beginner Box and wants a short side trip.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Paizo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68120025596103,"sku":null,"price":29.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0792\/7614\/6887\/files\/51Le1GMX75L._SL500.jpg?v=1793222837","url":"https:\/\/www.dice-armory.com\/products\/pathfinder-game-night-dawn-of-the-frogs-deluxe-adventure-3-adventures","provider":"Dice Armory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
