In the old days, game designers tended to make their games *harder*. They were making the games *they* wanted to play, and after having developed something for a few months, they had become true specialists at their own games. In case of #IanLivingstone and his #FightingFantasy, this even developed over the course of many books. It may be the reason why #CryptOfTheSorcerer is as insane as it is.

I've started with #CryptOfTheSorcerer (#FightingFantasy book 26). Exploring a cave. I've never seen Livingstone ask me THIS OFTEN whether I'd rather turn around and go back to my horse. Meaning there MUST be something desirable inside 😆
