A dungeon is one of the primary tropes in D&D(Dungeons & Dragons). In RPG terminology it is a closed environment usually having many enemies and treasure. Any respectable dungeon should have at least 8-10 levels with at least 50-100 rooms per level as a minimum. If a dungeon is smaller than this it is a mini-dungeon.
Exploring a dungeon in D&D(Dungeons & Dragons) is fun at an extreme level, providing that you have a good referee.

This refers to the Original Dungeons & Dragons published in 1974. It is truly The One True Game, the game that rules all other games and provides more fun and enjoyment than any other game ever devised.
It requires imagination and creativity, that limits the game to those who are of above average intelligence. It also requires flexible thinking and the ability to make decisions. This disqualifies the rules lawyers, the by the book crowd and the decision challenged.

The One True Game refers specifically to the 1974 original version of Dungeons & Dragons that was published as 3 little booklets in first a small woodgrain color box and later in a small white box. This usage is by ardent supporters of the Original Dungeons & Dragons game and is an indication of their passion for and devotion to the original D&D game and is not to be taken as anything else.
