Yep.
Played through a number of the fighting fantasy books.
Then progressed on to Car Wars. Classic stuff.

Bought a couple more Fighting Fantasy books at the UK Games Expo today for the kids. Apparently there's a film adaptation of Deathtrap Dungeon in the works.

There was a guy at Studley car-boot last year that specialised in these flogging them for a pound each (hence Tom has a few), seemed to have all the titles. He said he was there every couple of weeks...

One of the first Apps I bought for my iPad was Deathtrap Dungeon and it is a fantastic update on the classic books. It still looks and reads like the books, a flicking-of-pages animation occurring between pages, and it retains all of it's original charm whilst taking some of the page-finding burden off you. I heartily recommend the FF Apps for anyone with a tablet.
Warmachine (Retribution of Scyrah, Khador), Hordes (Trollbloods, Blindwater Congregation), Bolt Action (IJA Infantry Section, Soviet Russia Armoured Platoon), SAGA (Norse-Gaels (WIP)), Deadzone (Enforcers, Forge Fathers)
