==Products== TSR's main products were role-playing games, the most successful of which was ''D&D''. However, they also produced other games such as [[card game]]s, [[board game]]s, and [[dice game]]s, and published both magazines and books. ===Role-playing games=== {{div col}} * ''[[Alternity]]'' (1998) * ''[[Amazing Engine]]'' (1993) * ''[[Boot Hill (role-playing game)|Boot Hill]]'' (1975) * ''[[High Adventure Cliffhangers Buck Rogers Adventure Game|Buck Rogers Adventure Game]]'' (1993) * ''[[Buck Rogers XXVC|Buck Rogers XXVc]]'' (1988) * ''[[Bullwinkle and Rocky Role-Playing Party Game]]'' (1988) * ''[[Conan Role-Playing Game]]'' (1985) * ''[[Crimefighters]]'' (1981) * ''[[Dragonlance: Fifth Age]]'' (Saga System) (1996) * ''[[DragonStrike (board game)|Dragonstrike]]'' (board game and [[VHS]] tutorial) (1993) * ''[[Dungeons & Dragons]]'' (1974) * ''[[Empire of the Petal Throne]]'' (1975) * ''[[Gamma World]]'' (1978) * ''[[Gangbusters (role-playing game)|Gangbusters]]'' (1982) * ''[[The Adventures of Indiana Jones Role-Playing Game|Indiana Jones]]'' (1984) * ''[[Marvel Super Heroes (role-playing game)|Marvel Super Heroes]]'' (1984) * ''[[Marvel Super Heroes Adventure Game]]'' (Saga System) (1998) * ''[[Metamorphosis Alpha]]'' (1976) * ''[[Star Frontiers]]'' (1982) * ''[[Top Secret (role-playing game)|Top Secret]]'' (1980) and ''[[Top Secret/S.I.]]'' {{div col end}} ===Wargames=== ====Published under TSR marque==== {{div col}} * ''[[Cavaliers and Roundheads]]'' (1973)<ref name="ODD009"/> * ''[[Chainmail (game)|Chainmail]]'' (1975) * ''[[Classic Warfare]]'' (1975) * ''[[Star Probe]]'' (1975) * ''[[Fight in the Skies]]'' (1976) * ''[[Panzer Warfare]]'' (1975) * ''[[Star Empires]]'' (1977) * ''[[Battle Over Britain]]'' (1983, developed by SPI, published as TSR game) * ''[[A Gleam of Bayonets: The Battle of Antietam]]'' (1983, developed by SPI, published as TSR game) * ''[[Air War (game)|Air War]]'' (1983, reboxed version of 1977 SPI game) * ''[[Blue & Gray: Four American Civil War Battles|Blue & Gray]]'' (1983, reboxed version of 1985 SPI game) * ''[[Napoleon's Last Battles]]'' (1983, reboxed version of 1976 SPI game) * ''RDF: Rapid Deployment Force'' (1983) * ''The Twilight War'' (1984) * ''Julius Caesar: Game of the Gallic Wars'' (1985) * ''Remember the Maine!

(hybrid audiobook/gamebook line) (1995) <!-- Useful info if a Terror TRAX article is ever made, but disproportionate in an article on TSR as a whole. The year 1995 also saw TSR's attempt to create an [[audiobook]] equivalent to the [[gamebook]] format.{{cn|date=July 2021}} Similar in premise to the ''[[X-Files]]'' or [[White Wolf Publishing]]'s [[World of Darkness]] line, the four ''Terror T.R.A.X'' ("Trace, Research, Analyze, and Exterminate") games cast the player in the role of the head of a secret government agency that protects the world from monsters. By switching audio tracks, the player could give orders to their agents, and learn the aftermath of their decisions. Four such games were ultimately released (''Track of the Vampire'', ''Track of the Werewolf'', ''Track of the Creature'', and ''Track of the Mummy''). --> * ''[[They've Invaded Pleasantville (microgame)|They've Invaded Pleasantville]]'' (microgame) * ''[[Vampyre (microgame)|Vampyre]]'' (microgame) * ''[[Viking Gods]]'' * ''[[War of Wizards]]'' * ''Web of Gold'' {{div col end}} ===Magazines=== {{div col}} * ''[[Amazing Stories]]'' * ''[[Dragon (magazine)|Dragon]]'' * ''[[Dungeon (magazine)|Dungeon]]'' * ''[[Imagine (AD&D magazine)|Imagine]]'' * ''[[Strategy & Tactics]]'' {{div col end}} ===Fiction=== {{seealso|Dungeons & Dragons novels|List of Dungeons & Dragons comic books}} In 1984, TSR started publishing novels based on their games. Most ''D&D'' [[campaign settings]] had their own novel line, the most successful of which were the ''[[Dragonlance]]'' and ''[[Forgotten Realms]]'' lines, with dozens of novels each. TSR also published the 1995 novel ''[[Buck Rogers: A Life in the Future]]'' by [[Martin Caidin]], a standalone re-imagining of the [[Buck Rogers]] universe and unrelated to TSR's ''[[Buck Rogers XXVC]]'' game. TSR published a large number of fantasy and science fiction novels unconnected with their gaming products, such as [[L. Dean James]]' "Red Kings of Wynnamyr" novels, ''Sorcerer's Stone'' (1991) and ''Kingslayer'' (1992); [[Mary H. Herbert]]'s five "Gabria" novels (''Valorian'', ''Dark Horse'', ''Lightning's Daughter'', ''City of the Sorcerers'', and ''[[Winged Magic]]''); and humorous fantasy fiction, including [[Roy V. Young]]'s "Count Yor" novels ''Captains Outrageous'' (1994) and ''Yor's Revenge''(1995). However, such projects never represented more than a fraction of the company's fiction output, which retained a strong emphasis on game-derived works.
