DND is one of the earliest role-playing video game.[1] The name dnd is derived from the abbreviation "DND" (D&D) from the original tabletop role-playing game Dungeons & Dragons, which was first released in 1977.[2]
History
DND was written in BASIC by Daniel Lawrence for the PDP-10 and released around 1977.[3][4] The game was later reworked and re-released as Telengard by Daniel Lawrence.[1] Due to the BASIC source code availability the game was later ported and adapted to newer systems and programming languages.[3]
