Controversy
Dungeons & Dragons has come under attack from the religious right for ostensibly promoting Satanism and witchcraft. The controversy inspired a Chick tract entitled Dark Dungeons. Patricia Pulling also led a crusade to fight D&D with her one-person activist group called "Bothered About Dungeons and Dragons" (BADD).
