Playing Dungeons and Dragons is like entering a secret realm where you can do… anything. Entering a new game of DnD is like when you were a kid and you were unleashed in someone else’s basement where they had a bunch of toys you had never played with before. You’re like, «You mean to tell me y’all have a blow-up sword and princess tiaras? They don’t have this stuff at my house.» And then you spend hours playing in new ways and your heart races and you’ve never had so much fun in your life.
You get to explore a version of life that you don’t usually get to explore. You get to be people you don’t usually get to be. And you get to have types of fun you never anticipated you could have. It literally feels like being a kid again. It’s one of the best feelings that we can get as adults.
