On a recent family trip, I endeavored to unearth an electronic old school fantasy treasure from my past that had been haunting my waking dreams as of late - Mattel’s “Dungeons & Dragons Computer Labyrinth Game” from 1980. Fortunately, the Gnome keepers of the dragon flame (my young nephews) were able to locate the bequeathed contents in short order.
I started to read your article, which is great by the way, and was going to let you know I bulilt a web-based sim for it and then I noticed you already gave it some love ilater in the article! In case other tech geeks like me are interested, I made the code open source and you can find it here: https://github.com/bobwhitley/dndlabyrinth
That's fantastic Bob! I'm glad to meet the person behind the sim, and thank you for sharing the code repository. You did a great job with the simulation, and I've been sharing your link on Facebook with others who have been interested. Thank you for your kind words about this article - it was a TON of work, but I'm really happy with the way it turned out. Finding (and playing) your sim link provided a lot of closure for me too when I found out my game was broken!
I got way too good at this game in my youth. But it was a lot of fun.
The whole product was top notch. You're lucky to still have your copy.
So much fun , and so much fear when that electronic-vocal-fry-crescendo sound was heard! 🐉
