Critical reception
[edit]Rowan Zeoli for entertainment website Polygon, commented that the series "embraces the LGBTQ+ community in no uncertain terms" and that "in a time when the [...] community is under constant attack, Dungeons and Drag Queens is a beacon of nerdy, queer joy". Zeoli highlighted that the cast "experiences the range of emotions your first D&D campaign can evoke" with the first season offering "an easy and entertaining access point for queer people who have never felt safe entering D&D's complex (and occasionally infuriating) world of rules, lore, and role-play. One could watch these four episodes, along with a few episodes of Adventuring Party, and walk away with a basic grasp of the game".[1]
