*grin* Are you absolutely sure you've taken all paths available in outsider? I sure thought I had... came as a shock when i found out the true ending of the book was not what I thought it was. *grin*. I remember one of my friends saying, after I told him I had finally beaten outsider, that he had done that years ago. *smirk*. After a little conversation in which I dropped several suttle hints, he found out he was extremely wrong though, hehe. TOutsider is a great game.
I've been at sryth for 3 or 4 years now, when it was still clear back in its testing phases and still free, when you didn't see an update for lik half a year, *smirk*. Its a great game, but this site will always remain up in my favorites simply because you can play multiple games, as it were, completely free. Sorry for the long post! *grin*.

Legions Thu Dec 22 21:00:00 2005 I'm Writing A Gamebook	I understand. I've got about 200# done, maybe a bit more. I want my project to be adapted in your engine, however. I'll see what I can do about combat. I have a tendency to write rather long paragraphs... I'm kind of wondering if it's a bad thing. I suppose it changes from one person to another. I'm already at my third version... I wonder if I'll ever be satisfied! L.
	Perhaps you could write it using your own rules to begin with, then when you've finished make another version in which all the combats are replaced with the Fighting Fantasy equivalent. I don't think there's anything wrong with long paragraphs, in my view the quality of the writing is what matters.

shadowdragon Thu Dec 22 23:13:10 2005 I'm Writing A Gamebook	I've been thinking of writing my own gamebook, but I dunno if I have the patients to do so. Perhaps I should just give it a try sometime. The thing I won't like about it is making completely randomized paragraphs, or sections rather. Maybe I'll give it a shot but its not likely to happen in the near future.
	ADVELH may help you with randomising paragraphs. See the links page.

Seasons greetings everyone. I'd just like to say that out of all the books here, I enjoyed 'Outsider' and 'House of Horror' the most, although I'm yet to finish either of them. A bit ironic for number 2, since when I read the real 'House of Hell', I hated how hard it was. Keep up the good work in 2006 and beyond.

james hutchings Mon Dec 26 12:06:29 2005 Outsider!	There's a sort-of-flaw in 'Outsider': when you have a low Psychic score, you can be caught in a very dull loop of failing to open the lock and fighting an endless succession of Watchmen.
	Dull though it may be, it is not endless as eventually you will either be killed by a watchman or succeed in opening the lock.

The Trial Of Allibor's Tomb

Allibor's Tomb

Hi all, I am sure the answer to this question is simple and I am being dense...but...How do I get the Golden key out of the Ruby? I am standing in a room very near the end I think which has some red stuff but all I can do is prod around with my sword which reveals nothing. It's late here and I am probably needing sleep but some help would be really appreciated.

Cheers folks

The Trial Of Allibor's Tomb

Lol that part made me mad too. I've beaten the game, but when I went to replay it I forgot to do a certain part that wouldn't let me get the key. I'll give you a hint. There's two ways you can do it. One of them is extremely, and by extremely I mean extremely extremely, lol, close to the beginning. The other I can't remember where is, but I think it involved a book on a pedestal somewhere pretty deep into the plot. The first way is probably easier, but if I remember right, you miss something important by doing it that way, or at least something helpful or cool. *shrug* The choice is yours, good luck!

The Trial Of Allibor's Tomb

Hey, thanks for the pointer...

And so endeth the lesson...I had come across what you indicated which was why I knew what I was supposed to do, and then I thought...I wonder whether the bookmarked place I saved hadnt been a game where I came across the right location???

Just went back and played through in one go and...Yup!

Finished the damn thing.

Now to bed!

Thanks.

Outsider!

I am wondering if I could get a hint as to the end of Outsider. I've bookmarked probably about 15 places in the game, but no mater what I do, I always either die a weird way, or die in the sewers. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Don't give it away entirely, I want to play the game and have fun. HOwever, the dumb thing is driving me crazy!

Search the sewers as thoroughly as possible, take a course of action an assassin wouldn't normally take.

Nameless Fri Jan 6 22:59:59 2006 Outsider!	Err... I don't really get that option.
	I agree with shadowdragon, and would add: read the introduction and pay attention to what you are supposed to do.

Hi.

I don't want the happless adventurer to be confused now, so I will offer up some hints that will lead to one of the several optimal endings that don't involve dieing.
