Gotta say...not overly enthused with this Dungeon of Doom stuff. It's one of the later Kickstarters, and the quality on the pieces is pretty underwhelming. Compared to the original KS stuff, the walls and corners have more bend/bowing in them. The doors are chintzier, the basic floor tile is less detailed (and picks up paint worse). A lot of these pieces are simply "trying too hard". I can see some points of failure if used heavily.
Don't care for the recessed base (which is why they're bowing from what I can see). The magnetic stuff is a waste of money but was included in the "Encounter" I purchased.
The floor pieces are extremely "okay", and were likewise bowed quite a bit, but I expect they might flatten if I simply stack stuff on them.
The walls, when lined up, leave much larger gaps than the original KS stuff. Overall, I think they simply tried too hard to be clever, and I give this stuff a B- from a quality perspective. Sadly it's much more expensive than the original KS material as well. Not the best experience.
I also had to wash these with dish soap, which is the first time I've had to do that with any DF plastic stuff. Paint was pooling and wouldn't hold until they were all brushed. Another knock, but that could be simply the plastic mix, or an error.
Overall, it's nice to have more stuff to make a versatile dungeon, but it's probably the first time I've ever been rather disappointed with the end product. I'll have to be more careful about what I buy going forward.
