And read something like: Cheater! Go back to section 1 and try again, stupid cheater! You're dead! So dead! Dead dead dead!! No-one can beat Almighty Razaak! Stupid cheater! ...because evil is petty. dont you mean evil is pretty in a distorted kind of way... hmm i am begining to sound like Vagshancho here.....

Seen the twitter post, i wonder if it is true or just to tease the fans of fighting fantasy.

Divination you just have to read and go to the paragraphs noted like other fighting fantasy books, or are you talking of the PC desktops version made on the simple ff fan engine?!

Jason and the Argonauts is awesome. In spite of its blatant inaccuracies. They sail out into the Aegean for weeks without sighting land. I don't think it's possible to sail into the Aegean for half an hour without seeing some land. And Hercules is under used. It would have been nice to have seen him do something worthy of his myths, rather than just causing trouble on their first landfall then leaving the crew. And Medea's magic is certainly great for her to have a waist so narrow and still have room for internal organs. i saw a preview on imdb , and i found it awsome good to know what can be done with as little resources as they have for that time.

Thanks for that offm . I agree, someone's really put some work into it - very handy. Initially, I was somewhat puzzled as to how vagsancho's post could be relevant to this thread, but I imagine that what he's saying is that he's going to use the adventure sheet to help him keep track of his packing. (Cloudcuckooland gets terribly hot this time of year.) Remember to pack an extra set of provisions for a budget airline. Yes he must be thinking on holidays already.

Alex i got an idea too, if i may .. , you could talk about gamebooks translated to other languages , an or foreign gamebooks , France is for example an long time aim market on this and there is a superb gamebook(in my opinion) called Sons of Urizime , and spain is snowly starting to get involved on this with quality projects i remember for example cubus games and the frankentein wars project We covered the history of French gamebooks in issue #3, the German in #9, Italian in #12, and have articles about the history of Portuguese/Brazllian and Spanish gamebooks being looked at. Plus, we try to cover foreign gamebooks in our news section. If you have news on non-English gamebooks being published (anything since Jan 2015) then you should let me know so I can try and squeeze it into the news section. Beyond that, if you want to talk about non-English gamebooks, you have to find a "hook" to hang an article on. You can't just say these books have been published (that's what the news section is for) or that they're great (that's what the reviews section is for). You need to find something to talk about in an essay-sort-of-way. ie. Find something that thematically links the books. If they're non-Enlighs books, perhaps find something in them all that speaks to the social thoughts/concerns of that culture. (i.e.. (and this is a ludicrous example that I've made up off the top of my head) French gamebooks are *really* concerned about food and you'd do an article looking at examples of this and the implications/ramifications) I hope I'm making sense. you are making perfect sense it's me that is not dedicating the time to gamebooks that they diserve.

some changes will take effect on the near future regarding readability of house of pain adventure (will use the pdf version instead of the Word document to export the text ) so stay tuned for a new version of House of Pain on the sourceforge page

,phil sandler did a great job on this adventure, if you begin to play i am sure you will like it Vagsancho , it is not easy to make such a big adventure with this quality.

I seriously tought , is it to "nerdy" to have a text-to-speech narration of the story when i was developing it at the ff fan site , but then tought whath the hell am i talking about, it is way better to have this to perseive the story, that and the fact that as a programmer and "user" i am to lazy to read lots of text .
