Imagine the players surprise when they met a Rust Monster for the first time! At one point, one of the players said he felt like he was in a cheesy video game! It was a total blast, especially with all the 1E goofiness, which was so different from our normal game. Surprisingly, even though the group is mostly in their 30's, I was the only who had played The Ghost Tower before. We played it as tournament using the 5 pre-generated characters. I modified it using both the 3E conversion I found here, and the HackMaster "Demon Tower of Inverness" update. It just so happens that I ran this one 3 months ago as a 1-shot when only 4 people could make our regular game. But these games changed the nature of play for older children and adults and the world of play has not been the same since.Just noticed this thread after Q. Role-playing games, and Dungeons & Dragons in particular, were criticized by some over the years. Game designers quickly learned that computers were ideal platforms for role-playing games and many of the classics can now be played as part of a MMORPG-a Massively Multiplayer On-Line Role Playing Game. The trend boomed in the 1980s and '90s, and, most importantly, began to influence computer game design as well. Many still carried medieval themes, but others focused on different subjects, such as space travel or vampires. Other companies followed TSR, the publisher of D&D, and soon the world of role-playing games began to grow.

The game "Dungeons & Dragons" (D&D) was a further adaptation of Gary Gygax's earlier medieval war game "Chainmail." D&D added role-playing players were now free to imagine the settings, characters, and events that were happening. The world of role-playing games began in the 1970s.
