Did you know the first official Dungeons & Dragons arcade game came out in 1993?
Capcom’s Tower of Doom brought true RPG elements to arcades:
Branching paths
XP and leveling
Spellcasting
Classic D&D monsters

All set in the Mystara campaign world!

It paved the way for Shadow over Mystara and helped redefine what arcade games could be.

🎮 Ever play it in the arcade or on the Sega Saturn? Let me know in the comments!

Get this game and the sequel on Steam, currently 67% off!
