Mini Papercraft Dungeon RPG Game

Mini Dungeon RPG Bastelbogen
About 13 years ago, Jim Bowen created a free miniature dungeon crawler type board game that uses paper models and a modular dungeon system. The game is called "Mini Dungeon Adventures."  I don't know how far Jim pursued his development of the game, but there is still an early edition of the game PDF located here: Internet Archive. The PDF includes both the rules, as well as printable dungeon tiles, props, characters, and item tokens. Here is a taste of what Jim has to say about the game play:

"The 1 player game has the player using two hero characters and the dungeon has pre-determined behavioral patterns for the enemies. 2-5 players have one player take on the role of the dungeon master. You generate your character from one of four races and four classes, then give them some starting equipment and send them off into the dungeon. Each time a room is explored, you roll on the monster generator chart, which shows how many and what kind of monsters there are as well as if there are any treasure chests or not."

It should be noted that dice are required to play the game. Happy gaming!
