Name: Fighting Fantasy
Publisher: Puffin (now Wizard Books)
Year: 1982
Country of origin: UK
Category: Books, Comics, Mags
Notes:
These roleplay books were very popular in the 80s and it was the Fighting Fantasy ones that were the big guns. Written by the co-founders of the legendary Games Workshop, and Ian Livingstone now a legend in the video game world too. The pedigree was always going to be good. I loved playing these and scribbling scores and health points in the pages of the book.
