I loved it because it kept her occupied and happy and the whole family loved it, giving their opinions as to which decision she should make!

The book also incorrectly states that the player has two doses of their chosen Potion at the beginning of the book, when in fact they have only one. Your mission takes you along dark, twisting streets where thieves, vagabonds and creatures of the night lie in wait to trap the unwary traveller. All in all though,not really upset,I mean how could you be with such a great Gamebook as City of Thieves. Arbitrary choices abound and I was a bit gutted to be presented with a truly tiny and pedestrian 'Congratulations' paragraph once I finally did slay the notorious Zanbar Bone. According to Rowland, "Most encounters in the city are potentially lethal, several being no-win situations where the best outcome involves injury or loss of money.My trouble began at the city gates, where one of the city’s guards refused to let me into the city until I’d bribed him.

There is fighting violence, but I would be comfortable letting any of my fifth graders try the series. Some have suggested that the Hero of this book is the same individual as that of the next gamebook in the original series, Deathtrap Dungeon, since he journeys from Port Blacksand to Fang, [6] and also that of the next gamebook after that, Island of the Lizard King, since he journeys from Fang to Oyster Bay, [7] though nowhere is this stated explicitly.Loves the story and the die rolling for combat, the mapping out the path, so in the event of hitting dead end, easy to go back and start from a former decision point. A tattoo… of a unicorn… on my face… Yeah, I strongly suspect that Nicodemus was just wanting to make sure I made a total fool of myself. The pre-generated character Helios Wardalus starts with Luck 6, while the minimal possible starting value is 7. This first part of the game was enjoyable and moderately challenging in places - there were a few locations where things could go badly wrong for you, and I benefitted in one place by making what doesn't immediately look like a wise move. Curious as to what might happen if I went into the other room of the ship, I found that someone had poured themselves a nice hot bath.
