    I feel like getting my D&D on and I was hoping someone could recommend and Android App that can take me back to the 80's D&D experience.

    500 gold pieces, +20 xp, and a holy devastator to anyone that can point me in the right direction.


    Yes I'm bored.

    I use to watch my older brother play a little bit. Then it hit me...shouldn't I be outside playing basketball. ;)

    James Harden is loaded with dexterity! Does that sound about right?

    I would play at lunch during school since we couldn't do anything else.

    I don't think my local DND's like me attacking my own party members, so I only played once when I was about 12. Though I liked the idea of it. Creating Dungeons and stuff. I was too outside the box I think. So went back to sports. I did however like the intellivision dungeon and dragons a lot. And i did watch the cartoon. Good times.

    I must have been in 6th grade when I played it. It was fun. The dice were bad ass.

    If this ever develops, I'll dl and play.

    Any app they'd make would be some Fourth Edition bs. I'm old school.

    I'm a huge D&D fan. I would play today if I could fit it into my schedule and find a group. I've played off and on as recently as about 3 years ago.

    I haven't found any app that really captures the experience in any way similar.

    I will say that there are some apps that have the dice, DM's tools and a kind of 4e character creator. But all of that would have to be used with others in a game.

    In order to fill my role playing game need, I've been setting up some Boot Hill scenarios and rolling those out. I know there are some ways to play online with a group, but nothing I've found that really works for just one person.

    In grades 6-9 I somehow managed to play a lot as well as play outside, and be active in sports and stuff. Time moved a lot slower back then and I guess I wasn't as hard core as some gamers. But I did really enjoy it.

    They did re-print all the old edition books, and I think those are the only ones that you can get in the PDF format (at least legally).
