Not even a mention of Tunnels and Trolls?

We used to joke that it was a gateway drug to making friends who played real games. Together.
Because we were geeks. Back when a game master with some recipe cards full of encounters was a better way to spend a Friday night than playing Zork.
T&T -> D&D -> nothing else, really, just D&D

It's a fun book to read and from what I understand the mechanic is awfully familiar to T&T players. I wrote a couple oracle scripts I use with it, but the CYOA style adventures in the series are really fun as well.
- daggersandscars 5y agoT&T was awesome. A group of us in grade school / junior high played T&T and passed the solo dungeons around. A few of us lived within a bike ride of one of the few "gaming" stores that carried T&T and monitored the shelves for new (to us) arrivals. It was great in a time/place where public transit wasn't a thing and the only way to "voice chat" was to monopolize the only land line.
