Dungeons & Dragons began in 1973 as a small role-playing game created by Gary Gygax and Don Kaye. Over the years it has expanded to include many board games, card games, video games, and movies. The document discusses creating a new D&D board game that will appeal to both older fans of the franchise as well as younger new players, especially males aged 18-35. It should be easy to learn and set up, packaged in a portable box for tabletop play. Care must be taken in production to avoid issues like poor die-cuts or missing pieces.
