Hey Guys How do you get Kindle FF? The site sends you to Amazon but you can't buy them there. Help please.

Hi King Gillibran. I've looked at a few FF books on Amazon and they don't have them on Kindle. Although with Kindle using hyperlinks works well with interactive fiction, puzzles where you have to work out what reference to go to and flick to it wouldn't work as well, so I doubt you can get them for Kindle. Tin Man's app is probably a better format for playing some of the classics.
Interestingly, Citadel of Chaos has a buying option on Amazon of 'Audio, Cassette'. I wonder how that works.

If you make your anger obvious to her, rewind and eject this cassette and insert and play Cassette 106. If you talk to her to try and pacify her, rewind and eject this cassette and insert and play Cassette 390." |

I've noticed the same for The Warlock Of Firetop Mountain - I think it might be a story rather than a gamebook.

I once played a Doctor Who gamebook tape (a BBC one, narrated by Sylvester McCoy), which worked in this manner. It was a bit of a parody, so it about worked when I played it three or four years ago (the world has moved on snce then ofc). |
