Black Vein Prophecy and Spectral Stalkers are two of the only ones from the full list I was just consulting I don’t think I ever played. Your description makes me feel I should rectify that

Think I might have a couple of Lone Wolf ones at the family house, will investigate later this week before I fuck orf back to Olland

tried to read Creature of Havoc, but got embarrassed as a 40+ year old man.
Went back to playing Skyrim, probably

Can only assume none of you played Legend of Zagor because it was clearly the best and the pinnacle of all such works.

Stalkers has a wild premise but uses it fairly lucidly and is quite satisfying, I’d unironically recommend it. BVP is a total fever dream.

Demons of the deep is good - maybe even easier than island of the lizard king…

Leaning towards beneath nightmare castle. Or maybe city of thieves.

Yeah that’s why I mentioned DotD. Maybe even this group of dumb-dumbs can beat it.

What makes a FF book easier/harder? They always seemed like a sequence of basically random choices to me.

There’s generally two types: The ones where’s the only one true solution (as in you have to make almost every choice given to you correctly) and ones where there’s multiple solutions (generally you have to get a certain amount of something to win and there’s numerous ways of getting it). In a more meta sense some books are harder to cheat because the dickhead author puts a number on the McGuffin that you have to write down and then turn to the corresponding chapter when you need to use it. Rather than “If you have the crystal of not dying turn to 167, if you don’t turn to 5”.

All of them have “Oh you turned left, that means you die to a werebadger then” style choices in them, though.

use the “FFB” makes it easier.
Sanctioned by Ian Livingstone himself

I had the one that sent you round in circles. It was much too hard anyway without than additional quirk.

Appointment with FEAR would be a good one to do that isn’t all elves, orcs and eating provisions in the shade of trees.

Gonna start this afternoon i reckon…
