It's definitely a product of 1975.When I was in my board game burying craze I kept hearing about this game - like it was some shining jewel of a game from days gone by . Then it got republished years after its original release, so I bought a copy. Wow, was I ever unimpressed. To each their own, but it's mediocre IMO and I traded my copy away rather quickly.
Yeah, I've owned this at least 3 different times (back in the 80's, in the 90's and the 00's), and it never stuck with me. My own kids never were never fond of it, so I finally got rid of it back some years ago. I'll take Heroquest & Descent over it any day.When I was in my board game burying craze I kept hearing about this game - like it was some shining jewel of a game from days gone by .

You're probably thinking of Dungeons of Daggoroth, which has no relation to this game. I used to play the computer game a fair bit, but never finished it.I used to play a computer game based around this.... but this was ages ago.... I think on my dad's TRS-80? Or maybe an early 8088? But I've never owned or played the board game.
I don't think I've played it since the Bush administration, the first Bush administration, and I'm almost positive I must have played the 1989 version rather than the '75 version. But I couldn't tell you anything about how the game plays other than you go through a dungeon and kill things. I didn't even remember you had to collect treasure to win until I looked it up.When I was in my board game burying craze I kept hearing about this game - like it was some shining jewel of a game from days gone by .
