We Could Look It Up in the Index File Under 'Index File'

With this being the hundredth post on the blog, I think it's about time I provided a means for people to find entries on specific books that bit more easily. So here it is.

Of course, the existence of non-playthrough posts such as this one means that I haven't yet played a hundred different gamebooks for the blog. I should hit that target in around a fortnight. Or possibly slightly later, as, if there's enough interest, I shall make my hundredth playthrough a replay of one of the adventures I failed. I've highlighted the ones I did beat in yellow, and put an asterisk after the ten I failed most quickly. If you'd like to see me have another go at one of the ones I didn't beat (except for the Caverns of the Snow Witch teaser, which would be a bit pointless, that mini-adventure being functionally identical to about the first half of the full gamebook), nominate it here before the 14th of April, and I will have a second attempt at whichever gets most votes. In the event of a tie, I'll get the casting vote.

    I'd vote for Crown Of Kings although ideally it would be a playthrough from Hills all the way to the end - something momentous for the 100th edition. Time/patience/willingness however may all be stretched for all four books so Kings gets my vote.
