Once again, Loot Crate follows up a really strong month with a hit and miss month… this one themed “Quest”. With items from Labyrinth, Harry Potter, Vikings, and Uncharted 4, this crate is a mixture of fantasy and gaming. Let’s take a look:
1. Loot Crate Exclusive Labyrinth T-Shirt
While this color combination might be exclusive, the artwork itself is not. I have seen this artwork on a shirt at least once before. I do like the look of the shirt, though.
2. Loot Crate Exclusive Harry Potter Horcruxes Socks
Probably the stand-out for me in this crate are these socks. However, I am not big on the non-shirt wearables (and I have huge feet), so these will probably go to a friend.
3. Loot Crate Exclusive Vikings Drinking Horn
Again, something I will probably re-gift… I have no need for a drinking horn.
4. Loot Crate Exclusive D-20 Ice Mold
This is probably the only thing in the crate that I will actually use. I love playing bingo online for money and other board games to boot… I might try and make a bunch of cubes for next weekend’s International Tabletop Game Day.
5. Loot Crate Exclusive Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End Poster
MAJOR miss… I cannot see many people getting this crate enjoying this “exclusive”. I know a few people who got the crate just for the Uncharted 4. I have a feeling they are not happy.
6. Loot Crate Collectible Enamel Pin (w/ Unlock Feature)
This D-20 Shield Loot Crate enamel pin also unlocks a free Gelatinous Cube Companion in Neverwinter, a free-to-play MMORPG based on Dungeons & Dragons.
Overall thoughts: For the $20 expense on the crate, I am not saying that it is a horrible crate (I have seen a lot worse come out of Loot Crate). However, there really does not seem like there is any consistency. That being said, over the past couple of years theirs lows are getting less… low. Anyone remember last year’s FANTASY crate? Huge bomb.
