The co-creator of Dungeons and Dragons, the fantasy role-playing game that became a cult favourite, has died.
Gary Gygax was 69.
His wife Gail said Tuesday that her late husband had suffered from health problems in recent years.
Gygax and Dave Arneson first developed the game in 1974. The game utilized medieval characters and mythical creatures. Its oddly shaped dice were a trademark.
