«dnd» gameplay video (PLATO, 1975-1977)

[@RpgmaniacNo1]

A prototype but the beginning of RPG sumulation...... This is piece of history. Thanks for upload!

[@Mario87456]

Apparently this is the first video game to feature bosses

[@PianoDisneygal10]

Which is a pretty neat piece of video game history

I was lucky enough to have PLATO as a kid..lots of great games like this. Moria, Empire, Dogfight and more...in the early80s we had the net before it was cool!

[@InstazomeASMR]

PLATO is absolutely wild and fascinating.

How could you have PLATO as a kid? Wasn't it only available in universities?

@@nahuatl3092Nah, the PLATO labs were open to the public early on. The books & articles about the system talk about kids playing there.

Beautiful graphic

Il s’agit de l’un des premiers jeux d’exploration de souterrains (appelé plus tard les « Rogue like »). Il faut créer son personnage lui faire explorer les oubliettes de Whisenwood à la recherche de l’ « Orbe » et de divers trésors en combattant divers monstres avec les règles du jeu de rôle Donjons et Dragons (jeu de plateau sorti la même année). Quand le joueur termine un niveau, il peut soit continuer d’avancer dans le jeu, soit revenir en arrière et même sortir du donjon. Etant plus ou moins une adaptation de Donjons et Dragons en jeu vidéo, il s’agit ici donc également de l’un des premiers jeux vidéo de rôle

[@HalfassDIY]

That looks almost identical to the Omegaland game on the FSU PLATO system. Thanks for posting.

[@georgeshelton6281]

It's different compared to the Tower of Druaga. It's even different compared to Tutankhaum.

[@theironfox2756]

I am viewing this for its historical significance.

[@eduardogallardo11386]

whats the first rpg ever created?

[@SpillhistorieNo1]

The game that is most commonly named as the first CRPG is Pedit5. Though there are rumours of earlier games. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mZ6YZHyBqbFssNk

[@SpillhistorieNo1]

@@superpowergamers.p.g.8558 Yes, this is the one.

[@InstazomeASMR]

Yea, you just go deep in the dungeon fleeing from the boss and collecting gold/experience and magic equipment, until you're strong enough (100k+ Hits, 80m+ Exp imo) to take on the boss (the Dragon). Like the later Dragonstomper, you allegedly can just evade the Dragon? But I'm not brave enough to risk an account doing that ha. (Oh, and death is permanent like in pedit5, 0moria, etc)

[@InstazomeASMR]

You may find this interesting: besides the 1st level, in this game, the enemies' level is determined by how much gold you have (what level in dungeon plays some factor, but essentially not at all in the big picture)

[@Protato666]

This is epic af . How did you find that?

[@SpillhistorieNo1]

I found it via Cyber1, located here: www.cyber1.org/ - you can register for an account there, to get access to the system and a large quantity of games created for it.

[@BFDT-4]

Played on cyber machine? :)

[@usedx115x]

Pretty annoying that the only way to play this is by signing up with your personal information. I wonder if it could be recreated for C64.

[@the-dave-house-project]

Wish I could play this. Remind me of Telengard, only way better!

[@BaneMcDeath]

Level 15 demon? Level 20 death? Man, I hooe that isn't the first level. A reason I gog annoyed with Telengard as well. Better pacing needed.

Dragon quest

There are certain video games the Ultracade video arcade game machine doesn't have, such as the 1976 video game called Stunt Cycle. It has different game controls. 🎮
