Deadly Danger Dungeon Fanfare

Has anyone spent the time and wrote out the possible dice rolls needed to win this game?

I don't print a Deadly Danger Dungeon because my printer has no ink and it is not compatible with Windows 7! So, I'm using a mouse pointer.

Thanks, James! ;)

This is the most evil fucking game of all time, James!!! I want to have your children.

cooooool.

I hope You Have A Copyright for this board game
:0

I have a version made my self, only made in a 3D program. I was planning on doing some animations with it, including trap deaths and such. I just don't know how to post my version of this game on to here.

@3DMaster

Here you go, a graphically enhanced version to play online.

http://www.neocomputer.org/ddd/ex/index.htm

The graphics, of course, are the work of xxlightsourcexx.deviantart.com Consequently, certain aspects of the game were changed to match this particular board version. (The talisman and key are switched, for example.)

I think the game loses a bit of its charm when enhanced. Though with two playable versions to compare, you can judge for yourself.

I waited for soo long for this game to get scanned that I swear to god I actually just drew out my own Version of this game onto cardboard, I tried it out on most of my freinds and they all got major pissed off, my version is only just a bit smaller than James version but it is pretty much the same, but great game, I tried to make an original game that was almost as hard as this and came close but I could never beat the challenge of the classic known as deadly danger dungeon.

Great job man, I will try and send u my version see what u think.

Now, if only someone makes a playable game with the graphically enhanced board; we've got the ultimate version of Dead Danger Dungeon.

Have you ever heard of http://www.thegamecrafter.com/ ?

It's a print-on-demand service that lets you design, upload, and sell your own board and card games at no upfront cost to you. You can even include boards and game pieces with it from their catalog. You or a fan could hire a decent artist to draw the board, upload it to thegamecrafter, and sell it along with dice and pieces included.

@Superluigui
Thanks for giving it a try. If you're still interested, touching any of the on-screen controls (the dice, arrow icons, etc.) should start the game.

@recompile
I just tested it on my iPhone like you said but what ruins it is that it says "Press any key" and that is impossible on the iPhone

recompile, wow! This version is much better!!! You can choose the way you'll go! Cool! Thanks for work!

I've made a Javascript version of the game (from the trace I made earlier) if anyone is interested. I think it came together rather well.

You can play it online here: http://www.neocomputer.org/ddd/play.htm

I designed it to work well on lower-resolution displays and I'm curious to see if it's playable on an iPhone or other similar devices.

@TheMattCastro: Woohoo! I got a third! lol! Thanks Matt! Now come on James. I know you read these. Go grab your Mischief Night game board and upload it for us, please. We really want to play that one!

@TwistedSpeech I agree!

I just made a video of me and my friend trying to beat the flash version of Deadly Danger Dungeon. You guys should check it out!

I'm also working on a short film called Deadly Danger Dungeon for another website called FilmFights where they have bi-weekly video contests, and the next fight is called Playing Games where we have to bring a video game or board game to life.

Edgemonger628 your version is cool too! But I still prefer MysticJoJo's version! ;)

I've been trying to figure out how people were getting to ridiculous high scores on the video game version, then I read the comments and see someone has posted a link to a hacked version that basically makes the game easy. LAME. Least they could do is have it so it reports to a different high scores list, I'd like an honest high scores list.

Someone hacked the game and made a infinite hp hack, talisman hack, and key hack. Should make it easier. http://www.arcadeprehacks.com/game/4137/Deadly-Dan...

This is my version of Deadly Danger Dungeon.

I changed the crocodile pit to a monster that eats you. it looks suspiciously like Zuul , though that was an accident.

i changed up a few other traps to, but ultimatly its the same game.

I was several spaces to beating the flash version! So close to beating it.

Me and some co-workers at Wal Mart actually printed the game out on a huge board and put it in our back room. Our boss "Cliff" even gave it a try lol.

hey James do you have a PSN account

With the fixed version of my DDD simulator, it shows odds of around 1 in OVER 9000 of beating the game. Yeah, the old numbers are WAY off, because my program started you off WITH the key (I did that to test something but forgot to take it out).

You should make a hard copy to sell on your website. I would buy it and so would others. Also, I managed to beat Justcallmecloud's version on the first try.

So awesome, lol.

Could anyone answer my question on previous page, please?

Come on! Doesn't anyone else want James to upload Mischief Night? If you don't know what I mean go watch Board James: Deadly Danger Dungeon. It looked like a game everyone could enjoy. James, if no one else but me & Natonstan want a copy you can just upload it on here anyways so we could at least enjoy it!

I thought about putting together a prettified version of the board game, but I had other things I had to do, and figured someone would make a nice one... And two someones did! Also, the video game version is epic. I played it about 10 times in a row, highest score I managed was just barely over 300 points. Then I check the high score lists, and people are posting scores over 20k? WHAT...

I have a vector version of the original (traced, slowly, from the scan) suitable for printing if anyone is interested in it on http://www.neocomputer.org/ddd/

The purist in me just didn't care for new improved versions.

I have a doubt about MysticJoJo version, the "climb to start" shortcut, can it be used anytime or you have to land exactly there?

I have played "Justcallmecloud's" version many times now, and I can tell you that this game is a metaphor for my life: I just can't win, and I know I'm gonna end up dead soon with nothing to show for it but a couple of keys.

Looks like you guys are gonna have to review more home made games.

@Natonstan: Thanks. Anyone else want to carry the motion for an upload of Mischief Night?

And btw, in original game if you, as an example, rolled 6 on the dice, If you are trying to reach to the key and you see that in 6 steps to the right there will be fall could you go to the left to survive? Is it correct? I see nothing in the rules against that method.

Oh, yeah, James! It's really good idea to make the own topic. Today my friend won the game. He could not even believed it :)

Hey James, you still in contact with any of those neighbors? If you haven't, you should drop 'em a line about this. They'd probably get a kick out of it.

@fyarball: you really need more than 10 runs to even closely make an estimate of the likelihood of winning. Personally (see above) I made it 1000 wins, and that's still pretty rough estimate. Mediating 10 wins is almost like guessing.

I hate this game I really do. Those fucking asshole pits on the right side that killed Motherfucking mike is impossible to get through.

I Almost made it. This game is fuckin' impossible

I Second the request for Mischief Night! That looks cool as hell

This ASS of a game is unwinable! the only way to win is to shoot yourself first. Fucked-up shit!!!

Oops, looks like there is a serious bug in my program. I'm working on a fix right now.

Hey James, thanks for posting Deadly Danger Dungeons. I have a favor to ask. You think you could upload Mischief Night for us to play? That game looked like it was a heck of a lot of fun. If you could do your fans a favor and upload it for us it would be a great treat for us to play. Thanks for all your hard work. Keep it up. Us real fans truly enjoy your work!

That game by Lord Gravin is equally impossible to beat as James Rolfes board game. Excellent

Alright, finally finished (for the most part) my C++ computer program to calculate how many tries it takes to beat Deadly Danger Dungeon! My program contains code that simulates a game of ddd, and this code runs in a loop until a successful run is accomplished. This program follows the original rules of the game and assumes that the player can only move towards your current objective (key, talisman, exit) and not backwards, and that a single six-sided die is used to calculate the number of moves the player can make in a turn.

I made the program beat the game 10 times and log how many runs it took to beat it each time, and then I averaged those numbers. The average number of runs it took my program to beat ddd is... 3226!

This means that you have a 1 in 3226 chance of beating Deadly Danger Dungeon each time you play. This is quite a rough estimate though.

I will keep tweaking my program, add a simple user interface to it and then release it here with source code under an open source license when I am done.

I almost made it from the first try!

God damn. Little Dude needs some more hit points. And some saving throws versus death.

Hey, guys! Here's the full-size version!

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=UWRXO3E0

Feel free to print it on a poster and play it with some friends! I'd like to try it myself sometime.

Damn this game is hard! Tried the online version and I kept dying!

You had a sick mind 20 years ago James to come up with this game. :P
