Welcome back to Dungeons of Yesteryear! When you were a kid, did you have a binder full of D&D maps that you drew yourself? And ruled paper with dungeon keys, that in retrospect may not adhere to any sensible rules of dungeon ecology? Yeah, you weren’t the only one. Us, too. In Dungeons of Yesteryear, we open up our own notebooks and show you some of OUR old dungeons. We’re hoping they conjure up as many good memories for you as they do for us. Let’s compare notes on dungeon keys, encounter choice, and, of course, whether that demon lord just hangs out in area 2-2 waiting until adventurers wander by for a light snack.

Perhaps one day Mines of Khunmar will be a fully-fleshed out release (complete with Stefan Poag artwork!), but until such a glorious day, fans may content themselves with a free PDF digest version put together in 2004. It currently has a dozen main levels and three times as many sub-levels. Stefan describes this version as “still, honestly, pretty much a 1000 room hotel for monsters.” Now that’s my kind of hotel. “I must have been a weird kid who spent his days and nights at home drawing dungeons and populating them.” And we’re all the better for it, Stefan! Do YOU have a Dungeon of Yesteryear that you’d like to share? If so, we’d love to see it. Please send it to us at info@goodman-games.com. Perhaps your trip down memory lane will take you right into a Dungeon of...
