Adventure Board Game




An adventure board game is a Board Game in which a player plays as a unique individual character that improves through gameplay. This improvement is commonly reflected in terms of increasing character Attributes , but also in receiving new abilities or equipment.

Adventure board games often integrate various Role-playing Game Mechanics , such as Experience Point s and Character Creation into the board game format. In fact, the origins of the two are intimately related. In the early 1970s, Dave Arneson introduced his seminal role-playing game, Blackmoor , to a group of players. One of those players, Gary Gygax , collaborated with Arneson to create '' Dungeons & Dragons ''. Another member of that gaming group, Dave Meggary, translated the experience into the board game, '' Dungeon! '', the first adventure board game.
