| 1 + 2 | Lev Lafayette | AD&D Dungeon Masters Guide. One of the worst organised roleplaying manuals ever produced, the haphazard distribution of rules and information is not saved by an comprehensive table of contents and index. The game system suffers significantly from the lack of a systematic perspective, and hefty emphasis is placed on what should be, at least according to the game, is relatively marginal activities. Some Moments of good substance are often more appropriately in other rulebooks. Reasonable advice for the neophyte DM. [ Read Review ] |

| 4 / 10 | Mikeythorn | Probably the most popular RPG ever, but by god it is showing its age now. |
| 6 / 10 | RPG_Dad | My comments here are the same as the ones I left concerning the first edition Players' Handbook -- by modern standards, AD&D 1E is SO clunky. Still, it's hard to hate the game that WAS the RPG hobby for so many years. |
