That's not for geeks and nerds, that's for saddoes. 😛

There's a difference. Thought this was going to be about the new Star Trek series that's been announced.

No that would be the freaks and geeks. Sounds promising doesn't it.

I still have my copy of Death Trap Dungeon.

My sons school has a large selection of fighting fantasy books in the school library. He was delighted when he realised that playing one counted towards his weekly homework reading target 🙂

I was obsessed with these books at primary school. Me and my mates setup a club for it (it wasn't very.popular 😆 )

Spotted this last night, it neatly ignores the fact that there already is a WoFM computer game. I had it on the Speccy (it was basically Hall of the Things rebranded). (-:

Looks pretty good though, sort of Diablo meets Laser Squad. Probably the sort of thing I'd get on with.

I had a faint memory of one but thought it was a false memory, seems I was wrong.

Looking forward to this, got some of the other Tin Man FF games which are awesome (Appointment with F.E.A.R. is especially cool!)

WoFM for my 12th birthday introduced me to years of RPG arguing. 😉

Shame the miniatures are digital rather than real. My boy just started frothing with anticipation, then deflated like a sad helium balloon. 🙁

Shakes head.

Well we know which sector of that Venn diagram you definitely don't fall into.
