'DnD' can also refer to the Pen and Paper Role-playing game Dungeons and Dragons by Wizards of the Coast (Formerly TSR Hobbies)


DND is a Roguelike game written by Daniel Lawrence in BASIC for the TOPS10 but was quickly ported to RSTS BASIC Plus midway through development. While DND can be considered a Roguelike, it predates, and hence cannot have been inspired by, Rogue, The program does appear to introduce itself with the text "Welcome to Dungeons and Dragons!" The original DND appeared to have three classes: Fighter, Cleric, and Magic User.

DND spawned numerous variants.
