🎲🐉D&D’s Recalled Adventure?! The Real Story of Modules B1, B2, and B3

They were the first Basic D&D adventures — and they taught a generation how to play the game. In this video, I dive into the stories behind B1: In Search of the Unknown, B2: The Keep on the Borderlands, and the infamous B3: Palace of the Silver Princess — the module TSR recalled before most people even saw it. We’ll look at how these early modules shaped dungeon mastering, what made them unique, and the real story behind the scandal that led to B3’s original version being pulled, re-written, and nearly buried. Featuring insights on Jean Wells’ contributions, the behind-the-scenes politics at TSR, and how these adventures still influence the hobby today. 💬 Which is YOUR favorite?
