Yes, you can play Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) without a Dungeon Master (DM) by using various methods, including solo play, using books, or using a website: 

• Solo play: You can use mechanics to perform actions like skill checks, looting, talking to NPCs, and fighting monsters. You can also use guidance to generate encounters, or choose your own monsters. A gridded dry erase battle map can help you keep track of the space and add unpredictability to your opponent's actions. 

• Using books: You can use books with pictures, maps, and tables to create a narrative. 

• Using a website: You can use a website like start playing.com to find a game of D&D or other tabletop role-playing games (TTRPGs).
