** REVIEWS **
"Caverns of the Snow Witch is a classic gamebook, and this digital version reinvigorates it for a digital generation. It's fast, it's fun, and its story of icy tundra and giant dragons is worth sticking with until the end." - Pocket Gamer - 8 out 10 - Silver Award
"...it's a very solid gamebook, and if you've enjoyed any of Tin Man's other conversions of Livingstone's work, it's a journey worth embarking on." - Touch Arcade - 4 out of 5
"Fans of the original will also appreciate that they can switch the visuals to a 1980s style gamebook appearance, away from the more stylish modern looks that Tin Man Games offers. It ensures that Fighting Fantasy: Caverns of the Snow Witch really is the best of both worlds. It’s nostalgic yet offers features that we all wished we had back in the day, like fast dice. That’s a great combination that easily continues Tin Man Games’s reign as a fine purveyor of classic adventure game books." - 148Apps - 4 out of 5
"Caverns of the Snow Witch is a great blast from the past, perfect for the winter months." - Starburst Magazine - 8 out of 10
** FEATURES **

• Les Edwards’ famous cover brought to life.
• Gary Ward and Edward Crosby’s classic illustrations included along with new, full color illustrations specifically for this edition!
• Achievements to find throughout the gamebook.
Caverns of the Snow Witch has been created using Tin Man Games’ critically acclaimed Gamebook Adventures Engine featuring:

Another amazing effort from Tin Man Games, the undisputed masters of gamebook apps! This one holds a special place in my heart as it was the very first FF gamebook that I ever owned. Can't wait for "City of Thieves" and "Talisman of Death" which were the 2nd and 3rd, respectively. Well done and thank you!

I seem to have an issue pressing the Continue button. Nothing happens so I have to hit the back button to return to the main menu and then reload. It's really annoying. Galaxy Note 4.

You've given me a wonderful way to revisit my childhood. I love the look and feel of the user interface - especially the ability to switch between modern and retro artwork. I would have liked to see an auto - mapping function (like in Forest of Doom), but I appreciate that some nostalgic readers prefer making their own maps. Again, thanks so much!

All ages can enjoy these. Unlike the twitch and react of real-time video games, the player gets an actually good book with an easy to use tabletop experience for the single player. Precious few games I would call an investment. This one is.

Oh what a return to form! Thank you tinman for bringing one of the classic ff books back to life! The music, the feel, being able to change the look to a more retro feel and see both the original and new artwork...it's so well thought out. I love these fantasy books, and seeing them being treated so well and the original artwork being retained is heart warming, well done tinman!

Remember these?? They are as awesome now as they were 20 years ago. I find I'm able to remember my button path and quick travel thru the game but different modes and reading the actual pages gives the FF series a long life of its own. Get this and get the others!!!

A classic read and top notch adventure, cant wait to get more FF books from Tin Man. I'm itching for my next adventures. Keep em coming guys!

I love the Fighting Fantasy books, but this is one of the weaker novels. It's too reliant on you taking the right path and is difficult. Island of the Lizard King and Forest of Doom are definitely better downloads if you haven't played them already.
