How to Play AD&D and Other RPGs with AI

Advanced Dungeons & Dragons (AD&D) is a beloved classic known for its rich mechanics and storytelling depth. Today, with the advent of powerful AI Dungeon Masters, you can enjoy immersive RPG experiences like AD&D solo or with friends, guided by a virtual GM. But beyond AD&D, there are AI-powered prompts available for different genres—from cyberpunk heists to anime fantasy battles.

Why Use AI for Tabletop RPGs?

  • Always available: Play any time without waiting for a group or a human DM.
  • Immersive narrative: AI DMs deliver rich storytelling with logic and rules baked in.
  • Automated mechanics: Dice rolls, inventory, encounters, and more—handled automatically.
  • Creative freedom: Explore custom settings, one-shots, or solo campaigns on the fly.

How to Start Playing AD&D with AI

  1. Choose your edition—most prompts support 2nd Edition but adapt easily.
  2. Launch the AD&D prompt (see below) and describe your character and setting.
  3. Use formatting cues to interact:
    • {} for actions: {I open the sarcophagus}
    • "..." for speech: "Let’s parley with the lich."
    • <> for commands: <Check my HP>

Each of these AI prompt cards represents a fully-equipped AI GM for a different genre or system.
