Martin RundkvistWhat 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!
Mike Ferdinando@mrundkvist For me, it was the 1981 Tom Moldvay edition of the D&D Basic & Expert Sets. I was 11. My group went on to play Gamma World, Star Frontiers, and Marvel Super-Heroes pretty quickly. I've been playing lots of different #TTRPG's ever since!
@MikeFerdinando Sweden got its own Gamma World clone in 1984, "Mutant", which used the BRP core rules. In 2014 it begat "Mutant Year Zero"! We played 15 sessions of the newer game recently.
