Man what's the correct steps to make the substance? I found where they each load, but by the time I gather them all, while leaving the camp totally undefended, I'm dead.
SPOILER
I first go to the metal wreck, then the tower, then the salt marsh, then the mountain for the final ingredient. Seems like that should be everything, but what am I missing?
you have found ALL allies along the way. Even if you just miss one, it's an automatice failure! If you want to try playing through it again, let me know how you get on. I'm not sure if it would be an idea for a 'solutions' section to be included on the FFProject. They do exist online for the published series of gamebooks.
I always wind up dying at the church of ST Paul and ST Peter. Question, how do I set up a spoiler so it doesn't show? Thanks. Btw, I love this gamebook! :)
I am replaying the hell outta this one as I can't seem to get it right. And the simple fact that its a ton of fun! Thanks. Advice, what's the best skill to learn in my new princess's body? I keep choosing royal family history as I feel I need that to impress a group of robe wearing crazies. Ok I'm being harsh, but I hope, vague? :P Any general hints would be appreciated and would save me a ton of clicks.
Really good. The writing was better than most and while you did need to do a number of things to actually win, there's more logic than the usual "check everything or die" nonsense too many of these books fall into.
I also like there are numerous fail endings where the protagnist gets away unharmed instead of all but one road leading to death.
I found 3 gold coins in a machine, fought a minotaur and took its horn, used the horn to summon a skeleton boatman, paid the boatman a gold coin to ferry me across the lake, found iron spikes and a mallet, followed a spiral pattern leading to a pearl but then got burned twice when attempting to escape, ran away from cave trolls, used the mallet and spikes to bar the door and lock them on the other side, climbed through a vent, and then got poisoned to death by spiders. Good stuff! I will try this again to see if I can get a better ending :)
It has been a while since I have messaged, but saw your question and just wanted to chip in my $0.02.
- Star Wars: Everyone likes Star Wars- BUT therein lies the issue. This is such a large franchise I wouldnt be surprised there are already officially published gamebooks, so I would likely steer clear unless it is a franchise you are very passionate about. - Doctor Who: I am not a large fan of Doctor Who, but this would likely fall into the sci-fi category. Ulysses AI has explored may sci fi stories, so it may be worth looking into another genre. - Marvel: Not a big comic fan, and it seems that this is already a series with a huge fanbase. Originality and making stories may be an issue and outweigh the value of the established media. - DC: See above for Marvel. - Fallout: Promising! the post apocalyptic genre is of great enjoyment and almost criminally overlooked. The Fallout game series also has diverse background in their games, and provides a good background. - Skyrim: Also sounds promising, another Bethesda game series with diverse gameplay and background that would translate well to FF. - Horizon: Zero Dawn: I am not familiar enough to comment. - Hitman: Would transfer well to FF! Good idea, worth looking into.
Holy crap! I got the golden ending, and the only reason I played this is because I desperately wanted to recollect what going to a music event was actually like. Bloodstock's website makes out it is still going ahead but we all know everything hangs on a knife edge, based on Boris's whim. And that guy who looks like Lieutenant Gruber who stands next to him at the briefings. Ooer, little bit of politics there.
