There will also still be the option for a DM to partake in the adventure, customizing maps, designing the adventure, and even playing the roll of the boss for added challenge.

 

“Sword Coast Legends is a solid loot crawl with more options than most games of its kind,” says reviewer Bradley Halestorm from Hardcore Gamer, “…its host of modes, delightful story, clever writing and the ability to play player-run and -created campaigns solo or with others, on top of having a creation suite for those who want to play the part of dungeon master, all make for a content-rich experience.”
