Dungeons & Dragons Adventure Game (1999)

About this game

Based upon the roleplaying system D&D here we have a typical dungeon crawl game. A dungeon master is needed to control the "bad guys" and to lay out the dungeon features. The player characters are either Clerics, Fighters, Rogues or Wizards. The rules are a simpler version of the D&D rules, but the character development goes along with the standard rules. Player characters gain experience points and can advance to the next level. Only rules for 2nd-level characters are given, for level 3 and higher the D&D Player's Handbook is needed. Contents: 1 Map 6 Character Sheets Rules Summary Sheets Rule Book Adventure Book with 6 adventures Dice Tokens which represent player characters, monsters, treasures and dungeon features such as doors.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 3 to 6.
• Rules load. At 2.4/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 12 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
