Critic reviews

“[E]xactly what you’d want a drama based on the Fighting Fantasy series to be.... The tale nails the feel of the Fighting Fantasy series perfectly” (Starburst Magazine)

I have all five stories in this line. As a FF fan my opinion is slightly biased, but the stories are great, forming preludes to the Fighting Fantasy books in addition to revealing new titbits of lore.

The Fighting Fantasy books make interesting short stories, they are great short audio tales to listen to!

A well told small audio book.

A well performed play that acts as a prologue to the classic fighting fantasy choose your own adventure book from the 80s. This is very much one for fans of the original game book. The story is almost non existent and the characters are dull and one dimensional. It mostly exists to add a small amount of backstory to the denizens of the citadel and provide a nice bit of nostalgia to fans as it cameos various characters and monsters from the book. It's hampered by being a prologue as it can't change anything so there is no tension as you already know what is going to happen. Or more to the point not happening. As a play in it's own right it's largely worthless and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone who hasn't played the original book. For fans of the book though it's a short and easy listen and provides some nostalgic fun. I enjoyed it.
