Description
GA returns for a third epic interactive adventure gamebook! Please note that you do not need to have played any of the previous gamebooks in order to play this.
"Cruelly taken from your homeland of Orlandes, you find yourself in a far off land at the mercy of a gladiatorial arena. Somehow trying to find a way to escape overseas, can you also unravel a potentially dangerous mystery that puts two nations on the brink of war?"
"My favourite examples so far though are the iPad and iPhone-compatible Gamebook Adventures, a series of lovingly crafted and extremely well-written interactive fantasy novels. It's surprisingly engrossing stuff, the economically written narrative packing in masses of detail, while rattling out a pacy, involving story." - The Guardian
"Slaves of Rema is epic in scope, but doesn't lose sight of the plight of your character. It brings the twists and turns at a satisfying pace, and all of this is supported by the wonderful art we have come to expect from Tin Man Games." - Touch Gaming Magazine
"On the technical side, Slaves of Rema is almost at the level of perfection. The graphics have been optimized for the Retina display and look gorgeous, the interface is easy to understand and use, with the bare minimum of excess buttonry and the dice animations are simply superb." - TouchMyApps
"I can't help but feel a certain nostalgia for these four interactive books. Without noticing it, I got sucked into the first one over the Christmas holiday and went back to the previous pages and cheat reading different plots." - App Freak
Gamebook Adventures 3: Slaves of Rema is the third in a series of newly written adventure gamebooks for the iPhone, iPod Touch and now beautifully realised for the iPad! We are completely original and not simply a re-print of old gamebooks.
•Includes all the interactive reading and gameplay features found in An Assassin in Orlandes and The Siege of the Necromancer.
•Includes
•Newly written story by Gaetano Abbondanza with illustrations by Alex Drummond and cover by Dan Maxwell that take you on a journey southwards to the vast continent of Rema.
•Three difficulty levels: Classic, Bookworm and Novice. These will make Gamebook Adventures more accessible to those who want a more casual experience whilst keeping the Classic mode reserved for those who like it more hardcore!
•More achievements to collect than either of our previous gamebooks.
•A new Shield value enabling you to defend yourself better in battles.
•You can now view book illustrations full screen by simply tapping on them in the book.
•Widgets at the bottom of each page access directly to your inventory, settings and main menu.
•Map update showing the continent of Rema as well as a history found within an updated Orlandes Uncovered.
•Evocative soundtrack composed by our Freeplay Independent Games Awards Finalist, Adrian Watkins.
•Higher resolution artwork for iPhone 4 users making use of the new retina display as well as the larger iPad screen dimensions.
Gamebook Adventures is brought together through the efforts of passionate and avid gamebook enthusiasts. If you are familiar with the Choose You Own Adventure, Fighting Fantasy, Lone Wolf or Grail Quest series then Gamebook Adventures will really appeal to you. Our aim is to give those nostalgic readers of old something new and fresh, and bring a new exciting experience to those unfamiliar with gamebooks. If you enjoy fantasy RPGs or adventure games then this is for you!

Customer Reviews
Just plain cool-'nuf said. (v2.7)
What can I say, it's an improved, digital version of the ol' style paper adventures—I couldn't resist.
Worth every penny
I've been playing through this series for a while now and really can't say enough about it. It is a fantastic combination of choose your adventure books and pen and paper rpg style.
A return to a forgotten art called reading
Gamebook adventures is like a true return to a forgotten time when we all read books and knew what dice were, long before the internet controlled our minds and we would venture to places called liberies and bookstores.
Now in a time when there's an app for everything we can return to a thing called reading and still go on adventures without leaving the comfort of our homes.I just aquired all 6 titles so I'm more than ready to begin my journey into the fantasy worlds that await me
