That is very interesting. i'll have to check that out. Yeah, gamebooks

Hi Tom.
I must admit I'm getting to be a bit of a gamebook nut.
You have the story and plot elements of interactive fiction, ----
often with puzles, but a sympler interface, and factors such as
character stats which can be used to resolve combat, or reward the
player.
Gamebooks of course alter a lot in quality, but generally they're
deffinately fun.
On the same subject, I've actually just come across some other pdf
gamebooks from the 80s, published in various game book related magazines.
i initially thought that like many old gamebooks on sites like home of
the underdogs, these where streight image scans, ---- but it turns out
they actually have text, which means they can be converted and played.
Hurrah!
I'm not sure of the quality, but there's one way to find out, go to

Beware the Grue!
