By now, everyone has had a fair chance to play the online version without being tempted by the existence of the original text. So today I've added Return To G15-275 to the downloads page.

Hey all, my first time in the Guestbook.
I'm a massive fan of the series - working my way through getting twelve completions (all three endings, each both with and without the
SPOILER
wolverine treatment
END SPOILER
and the
SPOILER
alien parasite in my head
END SPOILER
)
I have a couple of nit picks though. Firstly, the blaster says it deals ten damage but actually appears to deal 12. Secondly, there appears to be a flaw in getting the virus from the IT researcher whereby she will always fill out the authorisation form the second time you approach her without having any 'could you make me a virus' conversation.
Keep up the good work :-)
Thanks, and welcome. I've now fixed the two bugs you mention, I think.

Hi Ulysses!
Great game, as always!
I'm stuck:
SPOILER
I just lit a magazine on fire, and I need to open a safe inside a cabinet. No matter which of the three options I choose, I am unable to open the safe.
END SPOILER
Can you please tell me what I need to open it, and where that might be located?
Thanks!

@Ironwolf
Sure. All you need to know is that in the same location; drinking water makes your butt extraordinarily sensitive.

I downloaded the file with the full text of this adventure, but I can't open it. The program says that the file is corrupted. I tried downloading it more than once, but I had every time the same results...

Works fine for me with Word.
Yaztromo Sat Aug 30 12:38:26 2014
Now it works... maybe it was something due to the connection...
Yaztromo Sun Sep 28 21:24:48 2014
Hi Ulysses, is the final chapter of the saga progressing? :-)
Ulysses Mon Sep 29 09:27:46 2014
@Yaztromo
Not really. I won't be doing any gamebook writing for the remainder of the year due to some important commitments. Even when I do resume, I'll be prioritising my Bird Islands gamebook first.
However, I haven't forgotten my favourite series and there will be some surprises in store. If you would like a very vague prediction, you can probably expect something more in the WWGB Saga around the middle of 2015.
Yaztromo Mon Sep 29 18:51:18 2014
Don't worry: gamebook fans are very patient by definition. But they don't forget! ;-)

@Ulysses Not to rush you, but in a blink it will be the end of 2016 and... :)

Done!
That was an intense, immersive adventure. Loved it. Kept me occupied for several days!
P.S. I enjoy that even if you play this adventure as a stand-alone and have average stats, it's still very do-able.
Bob Wed May 23 08:28:46 2018
Wow.....
that was extreme, awesome and huge! loved it, even the hours of frustration and annoyance!
Brill series...... when is the next one :(
It's a while ago, but this is still the most recent statement of the author's intentions.

@Bob
I do still work on this series infrequently. The next installment isn't very lengthy, but it is quite technically complex as it involves alternative dimensions with the ability to switch between them, so keeping everything making sense is taking some careful writing.
The next installment is the penultimate episode, but I have also planned out and written a great deal of the final episode since I began that before I decided there needed to be another episode after Return to G15-275 and before the final adventure.
There is also a secret 10th episode that I have started - but that is a secret so don't read this sentence.
I mention these two upcoming installments to make the point that I would like to finish off the series and haven't given up on it yet.
I should have some time to spare for writing gamebooks after June, but I've made promises before and proven to be a big fat liar.

I died to random junkies for no reason. This "book" was lame.
