Dungeon World Actual Play Session 1

Posted in Dungeon World, RPG Only on October 9th, 2011 by Kevin Weiser

Jen, Kevin, CJ, and Troll sit down with Sage LaTorra and Adam Koebel’s Dungeon World, one of the first published hacks of Apocalypse World. Dungeon World tries to evoke the old school feel of early editions of Dungeons and Dragons. This version was released at GenCon 2011, and is much like a “beginner’s rules” set, limited to a few core classes and the early levels. This first session is character creation and the very beginnings of their trek into The Hall Under the Hill. Enjoy!
