I kinda did. . .
When I was about 11 or 12, I already was a big fan of the console RPG's of that day (Final Fantasy, Dragon Warrior, Legend of Zelda ect.). I'd bought the Hero Quest rpg/boardgame and played it with a friend a lot, but I'd heard rumors and chatter about this other game called Dungeons and Dragons.
But I wasn't allowed to play D&D, my well-meaning father had heard in church a decade prior a sermon about how D&D is satanic and evil and makes kids commit suicide and worship Satan. Well, he didn't know anything other than that about D&D and didn't take kindly to me browsing the rack of D&D books at our local bookstore.
However, when I was at a toy store one time, I saw a cartridge of the NES port of Pool of Radiance, and I thought I could get away with buying that game and sneaking it under the radar. I did, he didn't pay any attention to what I did on the Nintendo, so I played Pool of Radiance for many, many hours. It was pretty literally built on 1e AD&D rules, although it did give me some kind of skewed attitudes (after several years of playing that game my PC's were at 5th and 6th level, the highest levels allowed in the game, being utterly stunned when I met actual D&D players and they said their PCs in their current game were 11th and 12th level, which seemed utterly godlike and beyond anything I had ever seen).
