Another difference between the early version and the later ones has to do with monster and treasure distribution. The original version had monster and treasure cards placed on specific rooms so you could see the dungeon slowly being cleared out, but the newer version has a "draw" pile for monsters and another for treasure in order to save space.
The differenece in style is subtle but different, becasue in the old one it actually matters which room you pick while in the newer one you get the same monster no matter which room you pick (on a given level, that is).
