    While I can’t exactly call Into the Unknown: The Dungeon Survival Handbook a disappointment - because there is quite a bit of cool material here - I nevertheless came away from reading the book, well, disappointed as a Dungeon Master.

    ...if you're a 4e player, this book once again gives you plenty of new material that can be used in the current Encounters season, which is a great benefit... For DM's I'd put this book up there with Neverwinter as being an essential purchase for its advice on how to build better adventures.

    The supplement is a useful guide for players and Dungeon Masters alike as well as even being an interesting read for those of us not firmly familiar with the 4th Edition of the rules.

    Even if 4e isn’t your D&D edition of choice, there’s a lot of great ideas in this book that can be used by any DM. It’s very friendly to any fantasy RPG of choice...

    ...the ideas in this book might give even the most ardent anti-dungeon hater a second thought about using this venerable institution in their D&D game.

    ...if you or your group is new to D&D, Into the Unknown would be a great addition to your library. For everyone else, you’re not throwing your money away but you’ll get most of the benefit this book has to offer you in the character builder.

    While the player section is a blast, I think the DM’s section is the best part of the book...There’s a sense of completion here that I just don’t think they’re going to be able to beat.

    ...if you turn to supplements like this for more than the numbers – for things like quest ideas, character motivations and new settings – then Into the Unknown deserves a spot on your D&D shelf.
