If you can find a 1st to 6th print in decent shape for under 50 bucks then do it. A timeless classic and most likely you will see a lot of the 1980 6th print out there and its well worth it :)

Electrifying! An absolute must have for role playing game enthusiasts!
2 August 2012

This takes me back to my youth. It reminds me of better days with no responsibilities, except for having the right equipment needed for the next dungeon encounter. If you play RPGs (role playing games) then you must try first edition Advanced Dungeon and Dragons. It is the game that started it all, and launched RPGs into the stratosphere. The "Players Handbook" is absolutely required to play as a well informed character. This book will easily get you up to speed and ready to hack-and-slash your way through the dungeon, and pillage your way through the city. The manual will show you how to create classic player characters such as the fighter, magic-user, cleric, and thief.

Not only does the "Players Handbook" give you full descriptions of the abilities, races, classes, combat, spells, and more, of your chosen character, but it also compiles these into concise, easy-to-use tables. You can do your homework in advance and use this book as a quick reference guide while you are playing. You simply can't do without it.

Great Part of D&D/AD&D History
1 December 2017

Although it has a second generation cover, this is part of the original Advanced Dungeons & Dragons core rule books. As such it is a great look at the history of the game. There have been a lot of changes between the original rules and the 5e rules of today. A lot of people still play the original rules, and if that is you, this is a must have book.

Little disappointed
25 June 2019

The card was shipped in a thick plastic sleeve, and the actual card itself was impossible to remove without damaging the card. Wish better shipping method was chosen. Card still does the job, just slightly bent... Other than that, decent price on the item and good shipping time.

The most epic game ever
2 June 2021

This game captured my imagination as a young lad and 40 years on still holds the same magic. In a time of technology this game is created with the theater of the mind or imagination something that children seem to have lost stuck on their smart phones.
