Talk about a blast from the past! Wizards of the Coast have revealed plans to release a revised edition of the original TSR classic Dungeon! this October. Dungeon! first saw print in 1975 and TSR released two revised editions, The New Dungeon! in 1989 and The Classic Dungeon (without the exclamation point) in 1995.
It looks as if Wizards is looking to build on the success of their previous ventures into the realm of board games and take aim at the more casual gamers with Dungeon! at an MSRP of $19.99.
From WotC:
A classic board game of dungeon exploration returns!
Dungeon! is a fast-paced game where you and your friends can decide which way to go in the hunt for bigger and better treasure.
Will you stick to level 1 and clear out the Goblins and Kobolds? Or will you delve deep into level 6 and set your sights on the Purple Worm or the Red Dragon? Along the way, you’ll have to face off against such iconic monsters as the Black Pudding, the Drow, and even the Owlbear!
Featuring simple, straightforward rules that are easy to learn, Dungeon! is perfect for a fantasy game night, or a warm-up before your next epic game of D&D!
Who remembers this classic box?
I remember it, and played it tons growing up. Just got back into playing boardgames, and have been wondering about it. Can’t wait to see this release, and to play it with my daughter.
I’m curious as to what WotC will do with it as well.
