DND (video game)

DND is one of the earliest role-playing video games. The name "DND" is derived from the abbreviation "D&D" from the original tabletop role-playing game "Dungeons & Dragons". The video game was first released in 1977.
History.
"DND" was written in BASIC by Daniel Lawrence for the PDP-10 and released around 1977. Later the game found its way to DEC and was there rewritten in 1983 to Pascal. The game was later reworked and re-released as "Telengard" by Daniel Lawrence. Due to the BASIC source code availability, the game was later ported and adapted to newer systems and programming languages.
