What was the game that turned you into a committed tabletop gamer? At what age? What year?

For me it was Basic Roleplaying + Magic World in its Swedish translation, Drakar och Demoner. I was 12, in 1984.

Please re-toot!

@mrundkvist Red Box D&D. 40 years ago this July, aged 12. I practically vibrated with excitement at the idea when I was introduced to it. Still playing today.

@gozzy Ah yes, the good old Menzer set! That was my third RPG. I think we played like six or seven modules total before the campaign stalled? You need someone bossy and organised to keep it up. I have played way, way more #ttrpg sessions since 2020 than I ever did as a boy.

@mrundkvist in the first few years I spent a lot more time drawing maps and thinking up adventures than I did playing. I got into Warhammer during that time too, both the wargame and later WFRP.

@gozzy I never got enough minis of the same team painted to play WH! I did play WHFRP once though. Another case of a lackadaisical GM who couldn't organise regular sessions.
