Bom, poderia escrever em ingles, mas quem fala ingles q escreva para quem fala ingles. Eu escrevo para quem fala portugues, já que nao tem quase nenhum depoimento de produtos em portugues.
Este set de tile eu nao considero melhor que o primeiro de florestas, pois ele eh mais especifico.
A parte da frente são matas mais fechadas, tem pelo menos 2 tiles 8x8 que pregam um ambiente sinistro, como nome diz. E os dois acabam em um tipo de clareira, quer dizer, nao tem visao para todas as saidas do mapa pois tem uma vegetação espessa em algumas bordas. os dois mapas tb pode se juntar e fazer uma grande clareira. o resto dos tiles sao menores mas q tem o mesmo tipo de ambientação. alguns complementam ou substituem algus tiles do primeiro set de matas. Para quem nao consegue mais encontrar aquele set, algumas peças podem ser encontradas aqui. Ou parecidas.
A parte de traz mostra ruinas no meio de uma floresta. muito interessante, apenas nao sei se eh possivel criar muitas ruinas diferentes com ela. Os tiles 8x8 quase nao tem paredes, se colocar paredes, tem q usar todos ou quase todos os tiles menores para fechar a ruina, restringindo o numero diferente de ruinas. Dungeons menores ou abertas podem resolver a questao, assim como sets extras de sinister woods. Como na frente, esta parte de traz traz alguns tiles parecidos com os tiles antigos q nao se encontra mais, como o fosso 2x2, a única diferença eh q aqui ele tem uma escada. Outras peça assim tb aparecem.
Em suma eh um bom set, mas nao dos melhores, contudo, na falta do primeiro set de matas, esse pode fazer o papel dele facilmente.
 Most useful of all the sets. March 10, 2010

Well, we know how these "tiles" go- yes, you can use them, but they rarely match up to your dungeon. I have fun using them, as I don't mind making up stuff off the cuff to go with the graphics, but other DMs get a little annoyed as the corridors don't go exactly right, and the players always expect the graphics to mean something.
But all DMs have to do the tried and true overland random encounters, and these tiles are perfect for this. Much better than drawing tree after tree or trying to figure out what shots are blocked, what targets have cover, and what terrain is "difficult".
Not just for 4th Ed- 3rd Ed can use these just fine. In fact- useful for any RPG - as long as you don't need hexes!
Great for any DnD campaign February 24, 2010

These dungeon tile really add to the game. They are versatile, easy to store, and are just plain fun to use. I much prefer using Sinister Woods to drawing tree after tree on my maps.

 Mapping Tiles - Can't Have Enough Variety November 20, 2009

Sinister woods is the 5 set of dungeon tiles in the second series, and like the previous sets is a solid product for any role playing game (not just DnD!) that takes advantage of physical placement in it's game mechanics. As the title suggests it is focused on wooded tiles, with some grass lands and built features thrown in. I personally liked the ruins printed in this set. I used them almost immediately in my gaming group, and everyone at the table loves to see new professional maps and mapping products. You get six thick card stock pages, with various size pieces, an almost water resistant finish (haven't had to test this yet), and a sample encounter area printed on the inside of the paper jacket. You will need to buy multiple copies of this product if you want to create large and complex layouts, but since they are generic you are investing in a multi game product. Once again, a solid gaming product, and we should all applaud Wizards of the Coast for making these kinds of products that are cheap and easy to incorporate in our games, no matter what the system.
