This is a fun way to dive into the history of the Fighting Fantasy book series.

If you're wanting a less interactive option, then there's a single linear video to watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3oHlNlzxahw

Really enjoyed the series when I was a nipper - I've got the first 20 or so.

I'll have to rummge around in the garage and get the box out now as I have plenty from other systems too. Might use them for the community banner image.

I have such great memories of playing these books back in the day. Trial of Champions was easily my favourite, but looking back, the most memorable experience was with Forest of Doom because I meticulously and carefully mapped the whole thing out on pieces of A4 paper that I taped together. Massive shame that I don't have them anymore..

I definitely did that too! I may still have my Warlock of Firetop Mountain map. I'll definitely keep an eye out for that!
