It says that it is available now, but I can't find it on their website. Anyone know of a release date?

Interesting. Fun little app. Too bad it doesn't say more about the game itself (must check out the downloads ...).
Of course, to be a real D&D game, it has to use polyhedral dice!

I think that's just to pick a language. Use the British flag for English.d20Dwarf said:There's no option for the USA!?!?!?!?!
This makes me want to say things that are better said on Nutkinland.

Well, according to the fine print on the rulebooks it will be distrubuted in the US (when, who knows ... a search of Hasbro's site reveals nothing).
It's a board/card game (with funny dice, lots of markers/tokens, and some cheap plastic figures). It seems to capture the basic flavor of D&D well for a boardgame (better than Dungeon! did, at any rate). It's competitive, for those who can't play a game without winning; the DM "wins" if he keeps the "heroes" from completing their adventure.
It isn't really roleplaying, or a rules-lite intro to D&D, but it's probably a good stepping stone from boardgames to some rules-lite version (like the D&D Adventure Game, or D&D First Challenge, if that ever gets released) that will push more traditional D&D and sell player's handbooks.
It does look like it'll be a nicely replayable game for families, particularly with younger children.

If it's half the game Heroquest was, it'll kick ass. Hopefully it'll be even better than Heroquest. Heroquest > chocolate.
Did I mention I love Heroquest?

I would quote Meepo if necessary. Heroquest was greater than every other board game I've ever played.
