Gamebook Adventures

Muchos de los que estamos en este mundillo del rol, empezamos gracias a aquellos maravillos librojuegos que podiamos encontrar a veces en las bibliotecas de nuestros colegios, librojuegos que han ido desapareciendo, y que ahora parece que estan intentando resucitar algunas compañias una vez mas en el idioma de Cervantes (en el idioma de Shakespeare no llegaron a morir). Y naturalmente, algunas de estas editoriales se han pasado a las nuevas tecnologias a la hora de ofrecernos estos juegos...

Hoy, despues de mucho tiempo, os traigo los Gamebook Adventures, una serie de juegos creados para PC, Mac y Android por la empresa australiana Tin Man Games, que proximamente va a pasar a este formato electronico los librojuegos de Fighting Fantasy.

[EL] The Walking Dead (PC)

Y continuamos con los zombies, y con mas cosas ambientadas en el universo de The Walking Dead. En esta entrada, tratamos los juegos de PC -y tambien para consolas- que han salido, una serie de cinco episodios -de los que hasta el momento solo han salido los tres primeros- en donde nos ponemos en la piel de Lee Everett, un convicto que consigue una segunda oportunidad con la llegada de la plaga, y que intenta sobrevivir a este nuevo mundo lleno de zombies mientras intenta mantener con vida a una niña huerfana que encontro, de nombre Clementine.

En estos capitulos podremos encontrarnos con gente y visitar lugares que aparecen en la ya conocida historia de Rick Grimes, en la busqueda de un lugar en donde permanecer a salvo de los caminantes...

The Walking Dead Episode 1 — A New Day The critically acclaimed debut episode of The Walking Dead begins at the outset of the undead apocalypse. Lee Everett awakes into a world collapsing into anarchy as society fails to deal with the undead plague. Seeking refuge, he stumbles upon Clementine, an eight year old girl whose parents are missing. Lee takes Clementine under his wing as they seek safety from the walkers all around them. Episode Highlights: Meet Glenn before he leaves for Atlanta and eventually meets Deputy Sheriff Rick Grimes. Discover Hershel’s Farm; meet Hershel Green and his son Shaun before their barn earns its place in Walking Dead infamy.

As things become ever more desperate, the group is offered food from strangers, but at what cost? Episode Highlights: Feel what it’s like to be a survivor, where choosing between necessities and what’s “right” is a delicate matter.

Fleeing Macon, the survivors head toward the perceived safety of the coast, but is anywhere really safe when danger follows them at every step? Episode Highlights: Witness the collapse of the bonds holding the group together and the shocking results of betrayal and emotional trauma Discover a new threat to Clementine – can Lee protect her?

[EL] The Dark Eye: Chains of Satinav

Nuevo juego ambientado en el universo de The Dark Eye, desarrollado por Daedalic Studios y ya disponible para PC, a través de la plataforma Steam.

Esta vez, los jugadores se ponen en la piel de Geron, que queda atrapado en una extraña intriga. Los supersticiosos habitantes del Reino de Andergast estan enemistados con sus vecinos de Nostria. Han dado los primeros pasos para establecer una paz duradera, pero una misteriosa plaga de cuervos amenaza con frustrar sus esperanzas. Las aves muestran una actitud cada vez mas agresiva e incluso han empezado a atacar a las personas.

Para librarse de esta plaga, el rey necesita a un habil cazador de aves; una oportunidad para que el joven Geron demuestre que esa funesta reputacion que lo ha acompañado desde la niñez es inmerecida -y es que el pobre tiene una increible mala suerte. Tras una audiencia con el rey, se le asigna la prestigiosa tarea. Sin embargo, su mision no solo resulta ser inesperadamente dificil, sino que no sera mas que el primer paso en la mayor aventura de su vida: una aventura que lo llevara hasta las tierras inexploradas de Aventuria y mas alla.

The Dark Eye Chains of Satinav For centuries the kingdom of Andergast has been at odds with neighboring Nostria, but now first steps are being undertaken toward a lasting peace. But a plague of crows troubles the king, for the birds are acting with unusual aggressiveness, even attacking humans. As the belligerent creatures infiltrate even the castle itself, the king seeks a skilled bird catcher - an opportunity for young Geron to prove that the reputation for ill luck that has followed him since childhood is undeserved. However, the task will prove much more difficult than he expects, leading him on an adventure that will take him to the borders of the charted lands of Aventuria and beyond.
