Wow, really couldn't have put that better myself! (No really, I couldn't. I'm so damn jealous!). The puzzles where you had to choose the right options in the right order were ingenious! My personal favorite of these was in The Golden Crate where you had to figure out how to get closer to the Death Bot to disable it with the item (the actual item you use seemed to be a bit random though). The other thing I liked about the Wrong Way Go Back series was how things from one book helped you to solve puzzles in the next e.g.

The story is a real gem too. In the middle of all the stand alone gamebooks and books with unfinished sequels (Outsider, Bodies In The Docks) it's really nice to have a continuing storyline. Oh, and Glen. Sorry for that inaccurate rant on best endings :-( |

@Glen You may be pleased to know that Episode 7 is essentially one large puzzle where everything is logical. Certain things are needed to obtain access to certain areas and there are either direct clues hidden about for what they are, or they should turn up in the course of normal exploration. I have made an effort to make everything as logical and reasonable as possible. There is one element I am not quite happy with at the moment, but I have enough spare references to handle it (I think). FYI, Episode 7: Return to G15-275 will be 600 references long. Regarding the sandwiches in PotS, there was no reason or logic to that. @C-Star I also enjoy those bonuses for using items and knowledge previous Episodes and can promise you will see more of the like. |

I never really understood the point of The Dead World. I understand from something Ulysses wrote in the guest book that it was released as an "interim" book while he was finishing Return to G15-275 but I've never really found it as satisfying as the other books in the WWGB series (which is, in my opinion, the bestest). |

This is insofar the "strangest" chapter of WWGB saga: much less nonsense (fights, weapons, objects...) and more, how can I say, PHiLOSOPHY! Like last few installments is it all played in a single, pretty limited location and the role of fights is very minor compared to exploration and enigma solution. What puzzles me is how we can bring forward (in the on line version of the game) the STAMINA and SKILL improvements from the "Wolverine treatment", as the adventure finishes almost right after and you can't carry them over (as far as I know). |

@Yaztromo: All bonuses, including the one you are referring to should be carried over by clicking the "Continue" link at the end of the adventure. |

The narrative is good, and has a lot of depth. |

This is one of my favourites WWGB... lovely background story never openly and fully laid out in front of you... I like it... |

Hi Ulysses, did you get my email about this gamebook? |

This was a short adventure, and I enjoyed it - although the prose jumped between matter-of-fact adventuring, mystery, tacked-on philosophy and a bit of macho talk. Funny, just not consistent - but maybe I haven't seen enough of the story to understand the mixture. All in all, a nice, mysterious, existential tale. |
