Elias did the main design work for the Chainmail miniatures game.[1]:289 Elias and Richard Garfield designed an MMORPG based on Dungeons & Dragons, which was never published because Hasbro folded up the D&D computer rights into Hasbro Interactive and then sold them to Infogrames, leaving Wizards with no rights to publish D&D computer games.[1]:289
