    Our sixth Gamebook Adventures title, The Wizard from Tarnath Tor is making it's debut on the iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad in the coming weeks.

    "Two hundred years ago, the legendary City of Tarnath Tor was destroyed as it’s defenders, the mighty wizards valiantly tried to repel an orcun horde. Now just a place set within stories and myths, it has been lost to the outside world. A chance encounter with one who claims to be a time traveller sends you on a mission to recover some magical artifacts. This search will lead you to great ruins and the dark forces who have made it their home. Who is this wizard from Tarnath Tor and how can you trust him?"

    I might join this rival camp ! Fed up of the Fighting Fantasy books, loved those as a kid so started buying those, the Sorcery series theyve released just 1 out of the 4 despite 'promises' that they would be coming out frequently.

    Anyway shall probably check these out, look pretty good

    How would have thought that GA would become even better?

    As always, it seems great and I can't wait.

    Omg a new gamebook I haven't even finished reading the other 5 yet. But still I'll buy this straight away as what I've read so far these books are fantastic and well worth the price.

    As I mentioned in the iPad thread. We'll be releasing this, as we do with all our new GA titles, at an introductory price of $2.99 for early adopters and fans.
