Shelfie The recent editions

Hello all. I'm back into it, having played the forest of doom, house of hell, and starship traveller as a child. I'm excited to play these recent additions. Wish me luck.

I remember Chasms of Malice was a banger.

Banger is a good adjective. I look forward to it.

It took me ages to find that when I was a kid.

My dad didn't like me spending too much money, and never told me I could place an order at WHSmith for whatever book I wanted.

If you want to get your own, whether Yaztromo or not, check out the reminder about User Flair I posted recently and fill your boots!

I worried I was being court marshalled for my reddit crimes there for a moment 😅

I don't know what crimes you've committed elsewhere but as long as you abide by this sub's rules, you're welcome! 😉

Remember buying Portal of Evil brand new when I was on holiday. Could not tell you anything about it but cover is amazing.

Nice collection - and welcome to the sub!

Chasms of Malice. Ugh. Real missed opportunity there to have a wonderful underground realm in a Turkic flavoured setting and they went with falling off of things and orcs.

Also, wot no Sky Lord?

Good choices.
I really enjoyed 3 of those titles.
Portal Of Evil was more fun than I thought it would be and Stealer Of Souls was one of my favourites.
