They were all the rage

- wmeredith 8y agoWould you consider any of these books good, beyond the novelty?
- ecolonsmak 8y agothe R A Montgomery books were good, I particularly liked the Trio series, about a fractured America during a future civil war.
- dopeboy 8y agoGoosebumps did this in the early 2000s. 11 year old me was a fan.
- ionised 8y agoI liked the Fighting Fantasy ones by Steve Jackson and Ian Livingstone.
- Boulth 8y agoSorcery books are especially good. The mobile adaptation by Inkle available on Android and iPhone is also high quality. I never thought text game would consume so much of my time! :)
- ionised 8y agoI've been thinking of picking up Sorcery on Steam. I never managed to get stuck into those books during their peak.
- Boulth 8y agoYep, me too. But the game format is I think more suited to this kind of adventure. The rewind feature is almost like cheating but actually allows exploring broader decision trees. I've finished all parts multiple times with different paths and this was definitely one of most engaging experiences I've had on mobile (in sick of casual games plague).
