Nerds Candy and Dungeons & Dragons Join Forces for Epic Snacking and Gaming Experience

Has there ever been a more perfect pairing than Nerds and Dungeons & Dragons?

The iconic candy and the classic fantasy tabletop role-playing game are joining forces for the first time for an epic collaboration that will find Nerds characters playing part of their own D&D game.

Here's how it works. From now until December 2021, fans who purchase special D&D-branded boxes of Nerds Gummy Clusters or Rainbow Nerds will be able to get access to an exclusive campaign called "Restoring Harmony" within the legendary world of Dungeons & Dragons.

All they have to do, according to a press release, is upload their receipt to nerdscandy.com/dnd. They'll get them "a single PDF adventure and character sheet "that can be run in under an hour by a Dungeon Master and one player taking on the role of a Nerds character starting at level one."

Each uploaded receipt will give access to more Nerds character sheets and adventures.

There are six different characters in the "Restoring Harmony" event, each representing a different Nerds personality: Curiosity, Creativity, Spontaneity, Deep Thinking, Logic and Humor.

"And this time, each will be transformed into iconic Dungeons & Dragons classes," the press release states.

Once all six have been played, a seventh upload will unlock the final adventure in the story, showing on how each of the Nerds characters need to join forces and become better together.
