Had you worried there? My top 50 would include such classics as Final Fantasy IX, Metal Gear Solid and so on, put for pure fun I would have to throw in chess, Monopoly, Pokemon, Atari Tennis, (remember? the two vertical bars on the left and right knocking this little square white ball back and forth on your TV?), plus a few of the better student drinking games. (First to explode loses and so forth.) An Stephen Livinstone's Fighting Fantasy series of novels would also be there somewhere.
So for me, 'games' doesn't necessarily always include computer games, they include all forms of gameplay. But I'm not going to list them because that would be just too much for you all to bear.

Joe Dever also did the "Lone Wolf The Kai" Series, (Flight from the Dark was the first one), where you had your Combat Skill, Backpack, Endurance points and so on, they were good, weren't they? I don't know if they are still in print, must be available somewhere, maybe SR will think of stocking them? The closest we've got to it gameplay-wise was DeathTrap Dungeon on the PS a couple of years ago, which unfortunately flopped, although I found the humour throughout quite to my tastes, and (Ian?) Livingstone was a consultant on that one too, just wish he'd do some more in the electronic games industry, his input would be invaluable I think.

I remember those! The pages where you record your Health, and stamina are worn down from constant writing and erasing them. I think I'm gonna have to go see my parents and dig some of those out. Remember Creature of Havoc? And there was a great one, Crypt of the something or other.

Ah Mammories....tee,hee
