Tunnels and Trolls

I really enjoyed Tunnels and Trolls, reading the rulebook, playing solo adventures and copying the Josh Kirby drawings. I never did multiplayer until Warhammer Roleplaying came out and I had other friends that were interested.

As an only child I played many solo adventure books:

Fighting Fantasy

Lonewolf

Way of the Tiger

Car Wars

Choose Your Own Adventure

GrailQuest

Cretan Chronicals

Sorcery

I must have had at least 50 and got quite a lot from the library too.

I loved the Tunnel and Trolls solo adventures when I was a kid.

Alot of the old fantasy role playing stuff is pretty badly written but the Tunnel and Trolls had a real sense of adventure and immersion.

For me anyway as a 13 year old kid.

I'd like to add that the rule engine was also converted to provide (decent, for the time) support for modern-day adventures - I own basically everything publised for https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercenaries,_Spies_and_Private... and it was quite decent.

Think I've still got the books someplace. All those d6 became a real pain you needed dozens.

take that you fiend!
