FANTASTIC FIGHTS

Bonus Episode - Steeleye And the Lost Magic

September 27, 2021

It’s bonus episode time again as HJDoom tries an adventure gamebook where finding the correct solution could have won you a holiday to a Disney theme park. Steeleye and the Lost Magic is weird combination of choose your own adventure and crossword puzzle as you fumble around a surreally fantastic world in search of the clues that will unlock the secrets of the magic which can save a mystical valley. Will our intrepid hero manage to solve puzzles aimed at the under 12s or will this be yet another humiliation for a grown who is already spending his free time embarassing himself in public? This episode was made possible by my generous supporters at patreon.com/hjdoom.

Bonus Episode - He-Man and the Memory Stone

January 23, 2021

Nostalgia levels are at critical here at Fantastic Fights as I tackle a game book based on He-Man, the first thing I can remember truly loving. This game book was published in the UK by the legendary children’s publisher Ladybird which adds a second layer of nostalgia to the mix. Will this be a lazy cash in or is there more to this than book than you might expect? Listen along to find out.
