Before C64 D&D Games... There Was This! (Intellivision 1982)

My first D&D video game ever! Before diving into the Commodore 64 Gold Box classics, it all started right here with Advanced Dungeons & Dragons on the Mattel Intellivision (1982).


Running on original physical hardware through a Commodore 1701 CRT monitor. Background audio features a nod to the C64 Pool of Radiance soundtrack, mixed over real Intellivision sound effects and tactile controller clicks!

Hey, it’s Tom from Texas. I run the machines we grew up with.


No emulators. No shortcuts. Just real hardware powered on the way it was meant to be. The click of keyboards, the whir of floppy drives, and the glow of a CRT hitting you right in the nostalgia.


If you remember swapping disks, waiting for games to load, or hearing a startup sound that instantly took you somewhere else… you’re in the right place.


Here you’ll find:

🕹️ Real hardware gameplay across C64, Atari, DOS PCs, consoles, and more

⚔️ Head-to-head comparisons (C64 vs Atari, C64 vs NES)
