    It really does have the best of intentions though, and if you’re a mega-fan rather than just someone with fond but not entirely specific memories, I suspect you’ll tap right into the rich vein of Fighting Fantasy love here. Me, I need a little more.

    It's an okay game, but very short and the price should be lower. Still, Pickens approves!

    there are adventuring options as well as combat, you can accrue items and do combat; in all this is a very good concept.

    The format of figurine turn based movement in a board like 3d environment is the best I have seen in any of the books video game counterparts, the preview itself made me want to play this.
