I cannot find any reviews or in-depth mentions of this niche game (there are some a few esoteric blog posts like [1] but blogs are not RS). One reliable book source is cited in the article, but it is not online; in either case a single source is not enough for WP:GNG nor NBOOK, and given that it is used for a simple factoid (designed by... published in...) there is no reason to assume the coverage in Schick (1991) is in-depth. We are not a catalogue of all games or such. At best I think this can redirect to Tom Moldvay, where the game is mentioned (and the Schick ref can be copied there).

Delete per nom or redirect to creator Tom Moldvay. A mention on one page of a book is inadequate to establish notability, as are the aforementioned blog posts. Note also that several who commented on those blogs mentioned they had never heard of the subject. Damon Killian (talk) 02:26, 4 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
