Kickstarter – The Wicked Wizard of Oz Gamebook

Here’s a Kickstarter project that’s right up my alley. The Wicked Wizard of Oz is a solitaire gamebook, a Choose Your Own Adventure-like book in which you take the role of Dorothy and return to Oz. Inspired by L. Frank Baum’s Oz series (find at Amazon.com*), this new adventure gamebook should be perfect for anyone who remembers the old Choose Your Own Adventure, Fighting Fantasy, and Endless Quest books, and wants to relive those days with a new adventure.

THE WICKED WIZARD OF OZ is a brand new nightmarish gamebook – a multi-path book, very much in the style of Choose Your Own Adventure and Fighting Fantasy Gamebooks, in which you choose the course of the story – inspired by The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, by L. Frank Baum, and the Dieselpunk aesthetic movement.
