    Set against the overall iOS gamebook landscape, it's hard to recommend unless you're a big fan of the genre.

    Island of the Lizard King was originally written in 1984, and it shows. By the standards of modern fantasy, it can sometimes seem clumsy and crude. But besides being a great nostalgia trip, it reminds us of the simple excitement that sophisticated fantasy has lost. Sometimes those primal thrills of adventure and exploration get buried in the desire to justify and explain everything. Besides, any book that lets you fight a lizardman riding a styracosaurus gets two thumbs up from me.

    A gripping dice-rolling adventure, Island of the Lizard King is another great Fighting Fantasy gamebook.
