About the game
Journey far and wide through the distant mountains to the hidden Vale of Harmony to answer their enigmatic summons…and discover an ancient and terrible Evil living beneath the Lake. Lake of the Dragon is the fourth Fantasy Adventure Module in the Roll-With-It system, a modular, solitaire roll-and-write adventure game system with endless possibilities for adventure through an accomplish-the-task-and-escape-the-maze-style gameplay. Gameplay is centered around a maze or map, through which the player must navigate, accomplish some objective(s), and escape the map under pressure from the enemy's attacks via the Doom die. The simple, puzzley, maze-style gameplay is approached differently in each adventure, building on the basic rules with new rules, concepts, and components that make each adventure feel fresh and unique. -description from the publisher
