(From Wiki)– A dungeon crawl is a type of scenario in fantasyrole-playing games in which heroes navigate a labyrinthine environment (a “dungeon“), battling various monsters, and looting any treasure they may find. Because of its simplicity, a dungeon crawl can be easier for a gamemaster to run than more complex adventures, and the “hack and slash” style of play is appreciated by players who focus on action and combat
What would we change in the definition?
