The Gaming Outpost

I buy a lot of gaming material from Uncle Jed’s Game Shed, which I can
highly recommend as a great place to find trully obscure games. Recently I
was eating a pizza with Jed himself, and I challenged him to get me a bundle
of Jorune supplements.

Jed said, “No problem. Furthermore, I’m going to mail you
this…this…beautiful thing. Just wait.”

I asked what it was, but with an evil gleam he simply assured me that my
life as it now stands would be torn asunder by the force of this strange
present.

Flash forward a few days: a gigantic UPS box arrives. Inside I find
long-lost Jorune supplements and the subject of this review: MasterMaze.
Though I am still mortal and have not been completely transformed by its
arrival, I will freely admit that MasterMaze is a deeply impressive piece of
work.

I don’t often directly quote copy in a review, but here’s an accurate
description of just what this 60 piece set does:

“MasterMaze’s pieces lock together with easily removable bow-tie closures so
you can keep your dungeon together for long periods, or change it as you
play. Each MasterMaze piece is carefully crafted of durable resin and
completely hand painted. The swinging doors included with every set are
crafted of hand painted metal. MasterMaze pieces feature a felt bottom to
protect your tabletop, and they come in a custom-cut styrofoam container for
easy storage and safe transport. The Room Set gives you incredible
flexibility at an affordable price, while the Room & Passage Set adds
versatile passage pieces to greatly expand your dungeon creations.”

So they are hand-painted, felt-bottomed, beautifully crafted dungeon
corridors. They are sturdy, well-packaged and portable. If you have ever
enjoyed using minatures in your RPGs, this product will make the dungeon
crawling experience leap up off the tabletop.

Finally, there’s the price: at $60 for the complete set, these things are a
steal. Include the discounts of 20% or so at Uncle Jed’s, and this is a
miniatures accessory you can’t afford to be without. If you want to see the
corridor just before your opponent gets knocked into the wall, or judge
bowshot angles on the fly, or need a gorgeous backdrop for your miniatures,
this is an affordable and well-crafted accessory.
