I wish they'd make the entire (Fighting Fantasy) library available like this... I grew up reading Fighting Fantasy books extensively (I owned the first thirty or forty books!), long before Steve Jackson and Ian Livingstone were role-playing game gods or had started the Games Workshop (well, in Australia at least - I think it was in it early days overseas).

Nice to see Official Steam Deck support though, considering these are better-suited to mobile devices rather than (traditional) computers.
