    This document shows the evolution and relationships between different editions of Dungeons & Dragons and retro-clones of earlier editions. It uses dotted and solid lines to distinguish between retro-clones (dotted lines) and official versions (solid lines) starting from the original 1974 D&D and leading to modern editions such as 5th edition. Key retro-clones include Swords & Wizardry and Labyrinth Lord that were inspired by earlier editions.
