Adventures in the Dungeon (1979)

Adventures in the Dungeon is a small Dungeon-Crawler originally published within "The Official Advanced Dungeons & Dragons Coloring Album." The game's rules are cleverly placed at the bottom of each page, and are complimented by a map of the Dungeon in the center of the book. The game is designed for 1-4 players, who will assume the role of characters seeking The Holy Talisman of St. Cuthbert. The 4 characters (Paladin, Rangeress, Fighter, Wizard) each have different abilities. To find the Talisman, players must wander the Dungeon and face the creatures therein. Combat is simulated with 2D6, and the players roll attacks for both themselves and their monstrous opponents. The various monsters have special abilities, and the characters will need to coordinate their efforts carefully to make it through. Players win the Quest by finding the Talisman, and a scoring system is included based on how many monsters were slain, and how many characters survive.
