Underground Rivers - University of New Mexico

Chapter 27 -- Virtualizing the Imagined: Underground River Games
We add another Magic card to our collection, Charon, Ferryman
of Hades, though this one's unofficial. Players can create their
own. In Chapter 33, Twenty-Five Centuries of Subterranean
Portraits, we'll note the 1861 source of the image, but more to the
point of this chapter, see the trading-card format in graphic art of
250 years yet earlier.
Dungeons and Dragons is likewise primarily a board game.
In Dungeon Under the Mountain, the
underground river seems ancient. The
remains of a lost city lie scattered;
forgotten temples and pyramids tower in
the darkness. But what inhabits the
great underground river?
The Cavern Layout Kit includes effects for an
underground river and lake. The floor tiles are based
on 1-inch squares for Dungeons and Dragons. At
$139.00, it's pricy, but not for the serious gamers.
