It never got off the ground as far as I know. http://projectswordtoys.blogspot.co.uk/2011/11/if-you-go-down-to-woods-today.html<br /><br />Wonder if anyone specifically collects old RPG board games like these?WOODSYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13456645970983569001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2156181044707591026.post-68329942203793897632015-06-28T18:58:08.331+01:002015-06-28T18:58:08.331+01:00The Sorcerers Cave by the way was an early Dungeon...The Sorcerers Cave by the way was an early Dungeons and Dragons-like board game from 1978. The other one by the same designer, Terence Peter Donnelly, was Mystic Wood, which I think has come through Moonbase as well at some point.

It reads like an early history of RPG, TSR etc. Here: http://skookumpete.com/CaveAndWood.htmWOODSYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13456645970983569001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2156181044707591026.post-8428224684037161372015-06-28T18:43:26.637+01:002015-06-28T18:43:26.637+01:00Ah yes, Mastermind.

Completely different to the TV show we had in the UK! I remember a pocket version of the game too.
