I've seen a couple of gamebooks (similar to the Fighting Fantasy book series or Choose Your Own Adventure) based on videogames.Namco had a few based on Xevious, Druaga, The Quest of Ki, Dragon Buster and Valkyrie no Bōken for example.https://namco.fandom.com/wiki/Super_Adventure_GameAnd there were three based on Phantasy Star by Sega. https://phantasystar.fandom.com/wiki/Gamebookhttps://archive.org/details/phantasy-star-01-alisas-adventure/Anyone read any of these? And are there any more, or are there more English translations out there? I loved the Fighting Fantasy books and thought these looked pretty cool.

>>11110028>the Zork gamebook seriesnicealso >S. Eric MeretzkyI'm guessing that's Steve Meretzky using his middle name as first name.
>>11110721I bet this is fun as fuck. Id guess itd be a very very streamlined zork type experience?
>>11110713I like the puzzles interspersed.>>11110736Yeah looks fun, they seem to be pretty straightforward Choose-Your-Own-Adventure style books (i.e. no RPG stats or dice rolling, just choices and branching paths) found the first one here https://archive.org/details/Zork_1_The_Forces_of_Krill/
>>11108381>https://archive.org/details/phantasy-star-01-alisas-adventure/No, but I'll remedy that shortly. I've been wanting to read this for literal decades.
