Unboxing May 2026 Dungeon Crate
Fee fie foe fum can you guess what’s in store for you this month? Your May Dungeon Crate is loaded with handy gameplay loot and features our third edition of Dungeon Crate MagaZine, which is big on giants, smart game tips, and more. Here is what you’ll find in this month’s Dungeon Crate:
Trap Maker Notepad - Dungeon Crate Exclusive
GMs can use this handy-dandy notepad to keep track of traps while adventuring and anyone can get devious and create their own traps using it, too. This notepad gives you space for the specifics like how the trap is triggered, its effects, and countermeasures so you’ll be able to stay organized and keep your head in the game.
Initiative Notepad - Dungeon Crate Exclusive
You get two of our essential gameplay notepads in this crate, adventurer.
The initiative tracker notepad is one of our best sellers. It’s a great way to keep combat orderly by tracking which adventurers and monsters go in what order.
All of our 25-sheet gameplay notepads come in a handy 6x4” size so you can take them wherever you game. They’re available in our online store.
Mystery Dice Set + D20 - DC Exclusive
Open the bag to find a full set of acrylic polyhedral dice in a mystery color. Use the dice set to roll up a new character or to give your regular hard-working dice a breather. Roll with advantage! This set also includes a bonus D20 that you can add to your high-rolling collection.
Giant Miniature Figure – Reaper Miniatures
While it seems like an oxymoron, this miniature is a giant. Let this mini fig from Reaper play a leading role in our two-part giant adventure this month and then use it for any other giant-sized adventure. Like all Reaper Miniatures we include in the crate, this unpainted plastic mini was made in Texas and comes ready to paint or play as is. No priming required.
Gameplay Goody Bag
Players and GMs alike know that the most practical items in everyone’s RPG toolbox are some of the simplest. That’s why we assembled this collection just for you. It includes a wet erase marker (which, in our opinion, is vastly superior to dry erase markers) with our tagline: Let the Adventure Begin, a quality pencil, aka Wand of Writing, and a fantasy bookmark to keep your place in core rulebooks, monster manuals, or your hardback copy of the new Dungeon Crawler Carl book.
Giant, Market, Crash! and Worth a Hill of Beans – 5e Encounters by George Shepard
Starting on Page 4 and 14 respectively in Dungeon Crate Magazine
These two original adventures were written for 5E but with a few modifications and your trusty rulebooks, you can play them with nearly any fantasy roleplaying game. This story takes place near the Whisper Mountains in our sandbox world of Halcyon, but you can easily drop it into any hilly, rural area in your own campaign.
Here’s what your players are up against:
First, a group of young hill giants are causing a ruckus at a weekly farmer’s market in a local village. Next, more hill giants have burgled several warehouses in the area and have taken over a nearby junkyard at the behest of their chief. Local law enforcement is asking for aid. Are your adventurers up for these colossal challenges?
PDFs of the Original Encounter, Map, and Magazine in the May 2026 Digital Dungeon Crate
Many Game Masters we know like using both the printed adventures and PDF versions. That’s why we offer our Digital Dungeon Crate to everyone who gets their crate delivered to their castle doors. The downloads include a PDF of that month’s encounter plus maps, and it includes a digital version of Dungeon Crate Magazine too.
