Best Interactive Fiction of 2012
By Jim Squires
While video games are all well and good, they'll never offer the level of immersion that a good book can. Unless, of course, those video games are a good book. Welcome to the world of interactive fiction.Joe Dever’s Lone Wolf Preview
By Andy Chalk
Lone Wolf is a popular series of gamebooks created by Joe Dever, 28 in all, that were first published back in 1984. The books follow the adventures of Lone Wolf, the last of the warrior monks known as the Kai Lords; readers make choices throughout the stories that affect the course and the outcome of each book. The Lone Wolf series ceased publication in 1998 but a strong following in Europe led to subsequent republication of the books and now, thanks to a partnership between Atlantyca Entertainment and Forge Replay, it will soon be coming to video games.Fighting Fantasy: Blood of the Zombies Review
By Matt Thrower
Fighting Fantasy is the best-known franchise in the history of gamebooks, but its transition to interactive e-books has been poor. However Tin Man Games, purveyor of the fine Gamebook Adventures series, have now acquired the license. Their first offering in the series is an adaption of the latest Fighting Fantasy book, Blood of the Zombies, written by series co-founder Ian Livingstone.Cherry Tree High Comedy Club Review
By Nadia Oxford
During your school career, you probably joined a lame-o club or two. Maybe it was a dilapidated ping-pong club. Or an anime club that owned one mouse-nibbled VHS of Fist of the North Star. Cherry Tree High Comedy Club is an adventure game that challenges you to recruit members into a high school comedy club. Video games typically ask you to slay monsters or venture into the darkest parts of your psyche, but putting together a high school club that doesn't suck? Whew! Talk about an unachievable goal.1931: Scheherazade at the Library of Pergamum Walkthrough

Much to the delight of long-time adventure and role-playing fans, the interactive novel's steadily gaining ground in the casual arena. Not quite games and not quite books, these digital diversions enjoy the advantages of both, telling complex stories that allow gamers to play decisive roles. A shining example of the genre, Black Chicken Studios' 1931: Scheherazade at the Library of Pergamum introduces us to a winning new heroine and stylishly demonstrates the endless potential of this unique form of entertainment.Cypher Review
By Dant Rambo
I don't know this to be true, but I bet there's a league of text adventure purists out there who look down on us current gamers. "Back in our day," they probably say, "we didn't need any of those newfangled graphics - or any kind of graphics!" If that sounds like you, quit being so judgmental. Also, check out Cypher, a new text adventure game with more than a few similarities to the classics.Cabinet Noir Review
Never in a million years did I ever think the text adventure game genre would make a comeback. I mean, it's sort of ridiculous. While I have many fond memories of navigating my way through Zork, those games are by all accounts antiquated. They were a product of their time, certainly, but with desktop computers now more powerful than the shuttle that delivered men to the moon, why would we choose to play a text adventure game? Cabinet Noir and the StoryNexus system makes a compelling case.
