Tales From The Bird Islands
Skull - non-optimum ending reached

I encountered a problem on Blackmaw. I went to the mysterious woman on the secret part of the island and she told me to bring back 50 pearls. When I then returned with 50 pearls it just ran through as if I hadn't been ther before. Please fix it

Great. Glad to see that new stuff has been added. Even more for me to hopelessly fail at now!

Keep getting killed. Balance between enjoyment and difficulty is off. Too difficult. Played a few times but tired of getting killed and going to the start. Not replaying.

Temple Of The Bronze God

This is another very short gamebook by Andrew Wright, in which you play a Horntoad. It is a prequel to his Shrine Of The Salamander. There are DOC and PDF versions available to download.

@ Yaztromo-

Thanks for the compliments! No, I've never thought about converting it to an RPG- I wouldn't have any idea how to go about it. But I think (if I do say so myself) that there's probably enough material there to make an interesting game.

I loved the structure of this game (that was implemented really nicely in this site, although at first I thought it was full of bugs....), but I enjoyed even more the atmosphere, the descriptions, the dialogues... and the setting in general.

Have you ever though about converting this game into a RPG setting? I think it would definitely work and strike the players as pretty innovative.

Yaztromo Sun Jul 10 19:09:37 2016 Tales From The Bird Islands	Great! Where are these adventures set? Do they have dedicated islands or are they set on Sempura or on another island already covered?
	They are a continuation of the story from Debacle At Dead Man's Inn, so for Tales From The Bird Islands they are set on Sempura.

The Maze and the Manse of Mheng

Now both of Andrew Wright's new microadventures are part of Tales From The Bird Islands.

There were free PDFs of Cretan on Home of the Underdogs, but that's coming up for 15 years ago now. Renault was a very good writer (particularly her later stuff) and obviously I have a Greek patron, but a major factor was I was in a science fiction reading group for five years and got absolutely sick of the whole genre. I'm currently reading Fountainhead, It's awesome.

Interesting. I've never heard of them. I wonder if there is a free pdf somewhere on them?

What is it about Renault that inspired you?

Wrong Way Go Back

Hello Ulysses,
if you have a look here https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/2036759092/stellar-adventures you will notice that Arion Games funded a version of Advanced Fighting Fantasy RPG rules dedicated sci-fi settings and already opened the playtesting forum even if there are still more than ten days for supporting the game (and be included in the playtesting forum).
I don't know what your point of view is on this, but I'd love you collaborate with Arion Games to make sure that your gamebook adventures can be easily converted into a RPG adventure.
In particular, I'd love being able to use the cool weapons used in WWGB saga!

Well.... now I told you, so you can't pretend you don't know! ;-)

@ bcyy,
I'm thinking of doing an FF gamebook but the distance/terrain between Mirewater and Dree is only a part of it. No worries, I can probably find clues in Creature of Havoc. Titan has a lot of interesting trivia and information, but it would be nice to have maps with measurements (square miles) on them. It would help with a more realistic time/travel factor. Perhaps somebody could do them? Of course, it would have to be officialised by the founders. I'm probably asking a lot anyway.

@Robert

Sorry, not that familiar with Allansian geography. I don't even know the exact distance from Dree to the Yellowstone Mines, let alone Mirewater. What are you writing? "The Adventures of Ganga"?

@Phil

CotS impossible to complete? Just wait till you try Sky Lord. Even with perfect decisions, your chances of surviving your unavoidable first space combat are meagre. :-)

Also from reading Let's Plays of Cretan Chronicles online I discovered Mary Renault, one of my current favourite authors and a secondary reason for wanting to get out of 'the sci fi ghetto' -- primary one being Derek Robinson. If only 'genre fiction' wasn't everything the English speaking critics didn't like.
