1980 Mattel Dungeons & Dragons Computer Labyrinth Game play through

[darjr]

They have a decent copy and played through a whole solo game. I always wondered how this game worked and it's not as terrible as I suspected. I wonder if WotC would ever allow a remake to be created?


The actual play through, solo styel, begins here.

For when you want to play Battleship but you're stranded alone on a desert island with two double A batteries?

Crikey, I'd all but forgotten about that thing.

Before my time, but my friends father had one and we played with it quite a bit. I liked it so much, it was the inspiration for my Senior Project in college! Oh, and got an A, so go D&D!

I had that game! It wasn't terrible, but it was not great either. The idea of making your way through a dark labyrinth with a dragon flying over it was pretty suspenseful though.

I liked Dark Tower way better...although I'm not sure I would enjoy playing it now.

Edit: Ooh, I put the video in fullscreen and that instruction manual is bringing back the nostalgia now....

Edit 2: I couldn't get the in-video link to the unboxing video. In case you couldn't either, here it is –
That box art! Psychedelic.

Never played it back in the day. I've been kicking around the idea of snagging one on EvilBuy someday, mainly just because I collect old D&D merch.
