FullStarFullStarFullStarFullStarFullStar A Fun Read...
Reviewer: Skeld

I bought my Red Box in 1985 and it was my introduction to gaming. I had recently gotten a urge to revisit D&D Basic with the possibility of running my current group through a short campaign. Fortunately, Paizo has the PDF so I don't have to try and hunt down a copy on Ebay of something.

The scans are pretty good. The pages are straight and the text is easily readable. Not only is it readable, but the PDF is searchable as well (which is a handy feature). The only issue I've noticed with the scan is that some text/images from the other side of the page can occasionally be seen.

Reviewer: Fayries

This is a really good electronic conversion.
Text is grayish rather than black — which can be hard on the eyes if you try to read it on screen — but the scan is of good quality : pages are clean and straight. The document is fully searchable, which came as a good surprise for me.
At $4.00, a great glimpse into the early versions of D&D!
