Appointment with F.E.A.R.

January 10, 2024

YOU become the superhero. For real, this time you’re actually a superhero! Not a treasure hunter or assassin (or “adventurer” if you like to be euphemistic) but Titan City’s super powered protector. Your nemesis The Titanium Cyborg, local leader of the terrorist organization F.E.A.R., has organized a meeting that will finalize their plans and being […]

Robot Commando

May 15, 2023

YOU become a dinosaur rancher and the only hope the nation of Thalos, when the Karosseans sneak-attack your country with a sudden disease or toxin that makes everybody fall instantly into a deep sleep. Now that everybody’s asleep, this proud nation of warriors (uhm…) will have an easy run of the place. But for some […]

Creature of Havoc

April 23, 2021

YOU become the monster in the dungeon, killing hapless intruders into your dungeon home and feasting on their flesh. In particular, you have a fondness for hobbit meat, especially still warm. Your actions are random and thoughtless until you stumble across a vial of fog, the Vapor of Reason, and gain free will. Now you […]

The Crown of Kings

March 9, 2019

YOU become a mountain climber winding your way through the mountains of Mampang. You’ve spent three books surviving the Shamutanti Hills, the city of Khare, and the desert of Kakhabad, and the Archmage’s fortress is in sight. You’ll have to survive the mountains, then the four levels of a fortress crawling with guards who (probably) […]

The Seven Serpents

YOU continue becoming the hero as your trek across Kakhabad continues. You’ve escaped Khare and continue your trek across the plains and desert. But seven magical serpents have found out about your mission, and are on their way to Mampang to tell the Archmage that you’re coming. You should kill off as many of these […]

Khare, Cityport of Traps

YOU continue your very long hike out of the Shamutanti Hills and into the infamous city of Khare. The way they describe it, sounds like Port Blacksand and Mos Eisley had a baby city, and raised it in Hell’s Kitchen. You don’t even want to be here, but the local Chamber of Commerce has chosen […]

The Shamutanti Hills

YOU become an extreme hiker across the land of Kakhabad. The magical Crown of Kings grants prosperity and leadership to the king who wears it, and it’s been going great. (Thus the crown bearing the slogan “Make Kakhabad Great Again”) But it all goes to pot when the crown falls into the hands of a […]

House of Hell

August 20, 2015

YOU become a hapless chump when your car breaks down. In a move straight out of Rocky Horror Picture Show, you see a castle with a telephone line and go ask for help. Unfortunately, the castle is not populated with singing, dancing transexuals and transvestites (that’d be awesome), but a murderous earl and butler, a […]

Scorpion Swamp

March 27, 2015

YOU become a complete idiot! The Scorpion Swamp is a fatally lethal place, and trespassing into it results in a deadly case of terminal death. But you’re stoked on your Little Orphan Annie magic compass ring, and head into the swamp. You have a choice of three employers, and any of three separate adventures! Assassinate […]

Demons of the Deep

YOU become fish food, when your ship is attacked by pirates! Your crewmates are killed outright, but captain Smellybeard has a special treat for you… walking the plank. With a sword and a sack of food. You sink down to the city of R’lyeh, grow gills like in Dagon, and put into motion your plan […]

Starship Traveller

YOU become the captain of the starship Traveller. And your first day on the job, you fly right into a black hole. Good job. Fortunately, your iron jaw and stunning good looks save the day. Instead of tidal effects shredding you into your component atoms and then crushing them into a singularity, you wind up […]

The Citadel of Chaos

September 26, 2014

YOU become a student magician who takes the fight to Balthus Dire and his legion of nasties. I’ll quote from the book. “The lawful goodfolk of the Vale of Willow have for some eight years in fear and awe of the demi-sorcerer Balthus Dire. In awe – since his power is truly awesome – and […]

Warlock of Firetop Mountain

September 23, 2014

YOU become the original hero as an adventurer out for that famous (but unspecified) treasure of the Warlock of Firetop Mountain. What could be more heroic than hearing that a wizard is rich, so heading into his home to kill him and steal the loot? Grab your sword and two doses of potion, and head […]
