Game Review 1 (written by Grommit) Added on: 12/05/2006
Dungeons and Dragons is a great teaching tool to see help people develop the skills required to act, see thing from a different angle and also to think outside the box.
It helps creativity, ingenuity, design skills writing skills and other such tasks.
A good dungeons and dragons story involves all the characters all their motives and all their hopes and dreams. Characters should come to life in the story.
Many things can influence a game. But the biggest thing to keep in mind is that outside the game influences should not influence in game protocols. You being upset because your best friend kissed your girl, and they both are involved in your session can cause great unbalance in the game.
These factors can create what is called a "BROKEN" game. Referring to the heavy unbalance the turbulence causes. This is a pitfall of role-playing called "METAGAMING!"
MetaGAMING means using outside information for inside game purposes. It’s not fair. And makes it unpleasant.
The game as a whole is good, great in fact. It leaves a very little room for error. But the steps have been both ways. In stopping player interpreted error, the game is bogged with logistics. Play enjoy, try not to sweat the little stuff. Truthfully this game is super. I like the way it goes they way it runs and how it’s played.
But my last and final words are for the parents of the gamers who are young enough to be parented. IT IS A GAME! A game just a game nothing more and nothing less, it is for fun, taken to seriously washing the dishes can be harmful, this GAME is not now nor has it ever been HARMFUL, demon worshiping, songs of satan, debauchery, evil, or any of the other highly offensive debilitating terms that have been used to describe this the favored past time of our growing generations, many actors and famous names have played and enjoyed this game.
With that I leave you to the playing and the purchase of these well licensed, well franchised, highly respected and recommended game.
Thank you for your time and you have your selves a wonderful day now.
Sincerely ~ Adam L Murphy

Game Review 2 (written by Mandarb) Added on: 08/30/2006
This dungeons and dragons supplement is a take of the original dungeons and dragons games (if you don’t know what dungeons and dragons is then you should know its a great game and you should try it) but for the rest of you I would say this while it cant quit compare to the actual D&D its still an entertaining game to play from time to time. The graphics while not quit spectacular are ok while the over all plot is the same as most RPGs( Kill the bad Guy) it still has that timeless quality.
Dungeons and dragons supplement is true to its name just like most if not all role playing games it has magic spells, swords of legend, demons, and even an Orc. The actions are turn based the buying system is simple and the dialog is rather pointless but still amusing. The classes are the four basic originals, fighter, ranger, wizard, and of course you couldn’t do with out a thief. For those of us who are easily amused this game will bring hours of entertainment and joy. But for those of us with IQs higher then 100 this might waste an hour or 2 of your day, but fret not for you can always resort back to the role of reprogrammed. All in all this mediocre game is "ok" I guess. Just remember the reason its called a classic because it is in fact "old" as some would say.
I hope you enjoy this not so wildly entertain game and if you could post a comment or go read my other works in the field of game reviews. This game is one of the best in my own games list. Try it!
