[QUOTE="cavalier973, post: 9657427, member: 91595"] It was probably thirty or so years ago (early to mid 1990s), when I was walking through a discount store (I think the name of the store was “Ike’s” and had a circus elephant motif), and saw a bin containing small-ish boxes labeled “Advanced Dungeons and Dragons”. The boxes, in my memory, were black, and had the image of a fighter. I’m certain that they were labeled “AD&D” and was not a version of one of the basic sets. I don’t think it was a computer game. I remember picking up one of the boxes, and thinking, “there isn’t much in here.” I think it was an introductory set. After searching the internets, I thought that maybe it was the Dungeons & Dragons Adventure game, but that came out in 1999, which would have been much later than the time I’m remembering. [/QUOTE]
