B2 is the D&D-est D&D that ever D&D'd, though. High Gygaxian prose supporting an absolutely absurd situation. B1 I think was a very interesting experiment when Adventures were basically a new product: I can unserstand why people were frustrated that they had to stock it themselves, but to be honest I find that charming: one of the supporting essays in the Goodman Games book is a series of alternate Encoutner sets Keyes to the Dungeon, and each one creates an essentially different Advebture experience on the solid bones. I give it a pass on being an experiment that had close to zero antecedents for how to make an Adventure product, and a solid design of creative rooms in which to stick Encounters in a coherent structure.Anorgwe aspect of "it isn't prestocked!" is that at the time, it would have been stocked near this very forgotten entry in the "Big Lists" genre of RPG products:<a href="https://www.dmsguild.com/product/16966/DD-Monster--Treasure-Assortment-Sets-One-to-Three" target="_blank">D&D Monster & Treasure Assortment Sets One to Three - Wizards of the Coast | Maps/Terrain/Game Aids | D&D Basic | Dungeon Masters Guild</a></blockquote>
