Re: What was the first RPG?

BTW: Odd, but I got the C Users Group CD for Xmas from my son & guess
what? It has Hunt The Wumpus on it. I'd have to double check, but I 
think it's a version hacked on a CP/M box. I'm going to give it a look
today, if anybody is interested in this moldy oldy let me know. Like
people have noted, it's more adventure then RPG but if you want to
see what a thinking person's game was back in the mid '70s, this is
a good example. The only thing you have to do to make it a real time
warp is change your output from your screen to your printer! At least
for me, the information science <I guess this was before there were
computer science majors> group wouldn't let me near a CRT terminal.
