The story of the author of the world-famous role-playing game in comics!
Gary Gygax is one of the creators of the game Dungeons & Dragons (D&D), which has conquered the hearts of millions of role-players around the world. Being the son...
of immigrants, he did not immediately find his place in life and throughout his youth sought refuge in the fascinating worlds of popular science books, military history, and strategic games. Together with Gary, you will go on a long journey from a reclusive teenager to a famous tabletop game developer, learn the history of D&D's creation, and understand the mechanisms of the multi-billion dollar gaming industry.
You will learn:
- what is needed to create an exciting game;
- how to become a developer without losing the passion of a player;
- what modern geek culture has to offer.
And all this in the format of an engaging graphic story, where the main character is you!
«Without Gary Gygax and Dave Arneson, we wouldn’t have tabletop role-playing games, half of video game genres, and such familiar gaming entities as health points, strength and agility calculated in numbers, the +1 magical sword, and the beady-eyed beholder. They are perhaps the most important authors in the history of game design». — Nikolai Pegasov, Creative Director of Hobby World
