Remember the epic adventures of Tales from the Yawning Portal? Infinite Staircase is poised to be just as legendary, bringing a fresh coat of 5th Edition paint to some of the wackiest and most beloved adventures from D&D’s old-school days.

The Infinite Staircase itself sounds like an adventure waiting to happen – a dreamlike expanse with doors leading to fantastical realms? Sign me up! But the real stars of the show are the SIX classic adventures included in this anthology. Let’s take a peek at what awaits us:

• Expedition to the Barrier Peaks: Buckle up for a clash of genres! This cult classic throws a spaceship full of aliens and robots right into your fantasy world. Talk about an unexpected plot twist!
