The Warlock of Firetop Mountain is a digital re-imagining of the classic adventure gamebook written by Steve Jackson and Ian Livingstone. Tin Man Games is bringing it closer towards its tabletop role-playing game roots, complete with a rich interactive 3D map, collectable digital miniatures, an updated combat system and the ability to explore Firetop Mountain with multiple characters.
This fantasy solo RPG combines unique, simultaneous turn-based combat with a journey that changes based on each figurine you take into Firetop Mountain! Which hero will you take into Zagor’s lair THIS time?
This of course is based off the original 1982 Fighting Fantasy paperback of the same name by Ian Livingstone and Steve Jackson.
It has been transformed into an epic domain, with new areas to explore, characters to meet, and of course, monsters to slay! Zagor’s home builds right before your eyes as you travel deep into the belly of the mountain.
Each character has their own motivations for being in Firetop Mountain, changing the way the gamebook is written and choices presented. Combat is fought using the digital miniatures in a simultaneous, real-time system called GridBluff, and the game includes over 100 unique hero and monster figurines to discover.
Look for it on Steam Late August!
I joined the KickStarter for this. It was the first Fighting Fantasy book I bought and the Tin Man version looks great – can’t wait 😀
