How To Play Dungeons & Dragons: Our Guide

In this guide, you can find information about the world-famous fantasy roleplaying board game Dungeons & Dragons.

Dungeons & Dragons is a fantasy tabletop role-playing game, first published in 1974. It marked the beginning of modem role-playing games. As one of the most famous games in the history of gaming, it is known and played by many gamers around the world. It has been adapted into many different kinds of games, including action and role-playing games, however, the most popular version is the original tabletop version. The game, its rules, and mechanics are regularly revised with new editions being published.

To play Dungeons & Dragons you will need:

  • A copy of the Rulebook (any edition you’d like)
  • A dice set (d4, d6, d8, d10, d12, d20)
  • A D&D character sheet
  • A pencil

Rulebooks of Dungeons & Dragons fall under the Open Gaming License which allows for sharing, editing, and distribution. You can obtain a dice set for a reasonable price off the internet. You can find a character sheet suitable for your game on the internet and print it out. We’re assuming you know how to obtain a pencil. That’s all you need to start playing Dungeons & Dragons. However, you’ll also need a couple of friends to accompany you on this new journey. A veteran of the game would also be very helpful to have in your session if you’re new to the game so that he could act as a DM (dungeon master). Anything else is optional, however, you can elevate your gaming experience by using figurines and other props.

Before you start playing Dungeons & Dragons you need to read the rulebook carefully and learn the rules of the game. Dungeons & Dragons is very different from regular board games as it is a fantasy role-playing game with infinite possibilities. You build and customize your character according to your liking. Each character is unique and different with their skills and stats. You start by creating your character according to the rules stated by the rulebook. You choose a race and a class which comes with different stats and abilities. D&D has infinite possibilities and scenarios to explore. Each game is called “an adventure”, which are little storylines to go through. There are many popular campaigns and stories that you can find on the internet and play right away. Your choices and DM’s guidance affects the storyline and the gameplay. Most actions require skill checks and dice tosses. Combat is turn-based most of the time and you enter combat with your party. If you’re new to the game, an experienced

DM will help you understand the basic gameplay. You might be a little confused during the first few games, however, as you play more and more you’ll learn and master the gameplay elements.

First of all, you need to learn the rules of the game thoroughly and become an experienced player. You don’t need fast reflexes to play Dungeons & Dragons competitively, you need good role-playing skills and a little bit of luck with the dice. You can use forums and applications to look for groups that play D&D on a regular basis. By playing regularly, you can improve your comprehension of the game and become a better player. Eventually, you can become a DM, who oversees and leads the game. Then you can search for local tournaments in community forums, and maybe eventually move on to national championships.

There are annual and regular tournaments being organized all around the world. The biggest tournaments are held at gaming fairs and conventions, but there are also tournaments that are organized by local communities. D&D Championship Series is one of the biggest tournaments of Dungeons & Dragons, held in annual board game conventions.

Most famous esports teams have their own dungeons and dragons players and rosters, so if you prove yourself worthy of becoming a professional player, you can compete under successful organizations.
