They call it a One-Way-Out novel, meaning there are lots of ways to die and only one way to make it out alive.
In the novel, you are one of the last survivors in a city overrun by the walking dead. The news reports say it’s the result of a government experiment gone wrong, and tell citizens to remain indoors to wait for aid. But you’re not getting any safer, and you’d be wise to get out of town while you can. The zombies aren’t your only concern, however. Thieves, cults, roadblocks, gun-nut survivors, and military defenses are just some of what you’ll have to deal with as you make your escape. It’s the one little thing you don’t expect, one wrong turn, one bad decision that will get you killed. It’s going to take more than guts and a gun to get you out alive. Use your knowledge of the event, your instincts, and every ounce of your luck. Maybe it will be enough. Maybe you’ll fine the one way out.
The paperback was released in October, and if you haven’t ever tried a choose-your-own-adventure game book, I recommend you give it a try. The nice thing is that there is also a kindle version of the book, so you can avoid the whole having to turn from page to page. With the kindle you just pick your action on the screen and the kindle takes you right there. It’s also available for the Nook and as an Android app.
I really think the Kindle or the Nook would be a great way to play a game like Tales of the Arabian Knights. I’m hoping for a lot more of these book/games in the future.
