However, they still missed the more board-game-like appeal of the black box.įor that, TSR would need yet another line … The first of these were the Thunder Rift adventures (1992-1993), which tended to be short and simple dungeon crawls. That's because their product lines were business as usual for the rest of 1991, with the final "DDA" (1990-1991) and "GAZ" modules (1987-1991) appearing as if nothing had happened.ĭDA4: "The Dymrak Dread" (1991) was probably a first try at a simpler adventure, but it was only in 1992 that TSR explicitly began to publish supplements intended to support the black box's new players.
