Fighting Fantasy in the press again

Two recent publications both feature Fighting Fantasy within their pages. First there's the new issue of SFX Magazine, which has not only an article about the history of Fighting Fantasy but also a glowing 4 out of 5 star review of the Freeway Fighter comic.





And then there's Tabletop Gaming, which includes a plug for the forthcoming Fighting Fantasy Fest 2!

The Rebirth of Fighting Fantasy Gamebooks


It's going to be a busy week here at www.fightingfantasy.com, as this is the week when the official relaunch of Fighting Fantasy gamebooks will take place, courtesy of Steve Jackson, Ian Livingstone and Scholastic UK!

That said, there are some individuals who clearly Tested their Luck and were Lucky, finding copies of the new editions in WHSmith stores up and down the country. If you happen to be one of those bold adventurers, don't forget to post a review on Amazon, or Goodreads, or anywhere else, to help spread the word to the next generation of dungeoneers!

Also already out is Nomad Games' brand-new Fighting Fantasy Legends, which will be showcasing at Fighting Fantasy Fest 2 on Saturday 2nd September, and which has already received a Silver Award from Pocket Gamer!


Also available now is the first DLC for Tin Man Games' 3D dungeon adaptation of The Warlock of Firetop Mountain. Called Goblin Scourge, it introduces players to a whole new area of Firetop Mountain as well as unlocking new playable characters for the game.


And lastly, Fighting Fantasy makes two appearance in the August issue of SFX magazine, once in the Red Alert news section, and once on the Event Horizon page.
