I already saw that on Thursday or Friday. Nice idea, but LEGO had their own dungeon crawler some years ago, when they were still producing their board games. It was calles Heroica and came in 5 box sets and severall smaller bagged add-ons. In total there were six heroes (knight, barbarian, mage, thief, druid, and ranger) and various monsters (goblins, werewolfs, ghouls, bats and spiders) and boss monsters (goblin king, ghoul overlord, dark druid, and a vampire).
You had to either free a person or collect an artifact, and the boards were interconnectable (so you could crete a really big board using all the sets) and modular in their design. With every game you could create a different board. The rules were quite easy.
Sadly, LEGO stomped Heroica with all other board games. I hope that if Dungeon Master gets enough support, LEGO might re-think ditching Heroica and re-release the game instead of creating a new one. If they see that there's a market for games like this, Heroica might come back and be further expanded (it was originally designed to be released in waves of 4 sets each, but wave 2 was cut short by the end of LEGO's board game production, so only 1 set of wave 2 exists).
Oh, I almost forgot, the size of Heroica's minis was smaller than regular Minifigs. The game used Microfigures...

No need, my boy has three 30litre boxes full and several smaller boxes of LEGO. When told he couldn't have any LEGO for Christmas, he said ''Not much point in Christmas then...'' We cavex in and bought some more LEGO.

Well, the link was more for those who don't have 100 liters of LEGO bricks like me. Not that I want that many in any case.

There has been a fan-made dungeomn crawler LEGO ruleset for many years, it's called BrickQuest and while it doesn't have official sets, who needs these with LEGO? It has plenty of examples for building modular dungeons, furniture and characters, and even "character sheets" made from LEGO! I hope I will have the time and money to try it sometime.

I'll have to take a look and see if I can find it, or have it. Edit: Found this online in about 30 seconds: BrickQuest Rules

And if you're on Mechs, there's Mobile Frame Zero. I own his ancestor (Mechaton) and it was fun (a friendly set of light rules).... i mean.. destructible (Lego) Mechs and scenery is a Win/Win

Someone also did a LEGO version of Blood Bowl. I'll have to look around to find it when I get the chance.
