The monsters, however, as well as the magic items, are there to support the rest of the published works and don’t really stand on their own as a supplement (nor do I believe they were held out to do so). Also, they snuck the ENTIRE GIANTS TRILOGY in here! That is Fricking Awesome! So there is good to be had. Being able to play a few sessions, then stop, can be very welcome when seeking published content. You can play pieces of it without having to feel married to it for a year (a complaint that some of us are feeling in our current Out of the Abyss campaign). The great thing about this book is that you get a lot of content, and a lot of short usable play hours with it. This is a slapshot right down the throats of all those geezers like myself that just want to play ancient modules until we die, and make other people play them too. As a result, 5th edition has a much more old school feel, without all that horrible THAC0. 4th Edition is commonly summarized as “a great game, just not dungeons and dragons”. In a lot of ways, 5th Edition is a response (perhaps a kneejerk response) to the vitriol that arose as a result of the new ideas of 4th Edition. That, and now if I want to find a monster, I have to flip through Volo’s Guide to Monsters, or now Yawning Portal to find what I’m looking for in addition to the Monster Manual. On the other hand, I feel like getting 39 monsters at a time is a somewhat slower financial torture. In some ways I appreciate the fact that Wizards isn’t spamming their release schedule with Fiend Folios and Magic Item Compendiums in droves, forcing us to shell out for semi-mandatory releases.
Tales from the yawning portal tomb of horrors mods#
This is a collection of classic mods first and a general game supplement second, or perhaps even third. I personally do, but that’s not going to describe everyone. Should you? Only if you want to revisit these classics.

Tales from the Yawning Portal takes the heavy lifting out of conversion, cleans up some weird oddities from older mods, and generally makes the older content much more approachable for a newer player, primarily because old originals are perhaps hard to find and the trouble of converting some of these classics may be a little daunting.

Alternately, it’s for newer players that have heard about classic mods and want to take a crack at them in 5E and see what all the fuss is about. This book is for grognards wanting to spare themselves the minimal trouble of converting a few old classic scenarios for their group, many of whom may not have played the mods. Also, starting of the book is a brief flavor detail for, you guessed it, the Yawning Portal Tavern. There is also a brief chapter for magic items (15 of these) and a chapter for monsters (39 of them).

Tales from the yawning portal tomb of horrors series#
Unlike previous releases, it is a series of unconnected older adventures that have been converted up to 5th edition from previous editions of the game (ranging from several OD&D mods to some early 3rd edition modules, and some playtest content). Tales from the Yawning Portal is Wizard’s latest release for 5th Edition, and is the same high production quality as their other releases.
