[Let's Play] Fighting Fantasy 60 – Eye of the Dragon

[Beroli]

Leave the room.

[SGamerz]

Grab the emerald.

[JourneymanN00b]

Thank you for voting. I will break the 1-1 tie by having Sinbad grab the emerald from her outstretched hand.

357
You reach out to take the emerald but grab nothing but air. The jewel is an illusion! The cauldron suddenly explodes, sending shards of pot and boiling sludge flying everywhere. Roll 1 die and reduce your STAMINA by the number rolled. If you are still alive, turn to 226.



Rolling the die yields a 1, so Sinbad only loses 1 STAMINA.

226
Hovering above the steaming embers of the fire, the illusion of the Snake Witch reappears. She smiles and says, ‘Only a fool such as you would expect to barge into my chamber and steal an emerald of such beauty. My name is Vigdis and I am the most beautiful woman in the world. Do you agree?’ You look at her and are repulsed by her hideous face, which is covered with scabs and warts. Her nose is long and hairy, and her mouth houses two rows of broken black teeth. If you wish to agree with her, turn to 71. If you want to tell her she is ugly, turn to 100.

[Queen of Swords]

Tell her she's ugly.

[SGamerz]

Ninja honesty ("You're ugly“）

[Thaluikhain]

Be honest.

[JourneymanN00b]

Telling her that she’s ugly received 3 votes, so Sinbad will dispense with the brutal honesty.

100
You tell Vigdis that she is disgustingly ugly. She smiles and says, ‘Thank you. Nobody has paid me such a compliment in years. You are obviously a person of great taste. You are free to go. And please take the wooden box from the shelf in the corner of the room, as a token of my appreciation.’ As you leave the room, you take a peek inside the box and find a few garlic cloves, 7 Gold Pieces, a large tooth and a bronze key with the number 85 stamped on it. You pack the items away and carry on up the corridor. Turn to 323.



323


You arrive at the entrance to a cave in the right-hand wall of the corridor. Peering in, you see a stone table and four chairs. A burning candle housed in a large skull is giving off a dim and eerie light. Asleep in one of the chairs, and snoring loudly, you see the large bulk of an Ogre. It must be at least two metres tall. Its lumpy face is green and its open mouth is drooling spittle down its hairy chin. It is wearing animal skins and has a strange necklace made out of rats’ skulls. A large wooden club leans against the chair, on the back of which hangs an old leather bag. If you want to creep into the room to take the bag, turn to 274. If you want to carry on walking up the corridor, turn to 139.

Creep in and take bag.

[SGamerz]

Steal the bag.

[Queen of Swords]

Yes, take the bag.

[JourneymanN00b]

Votes registered; creeping into the room to take the bag.

274
As you tiptoe across the floor you step on a rat’s skull that cracks under the weight of your boot. Test your Luck. If you are Lucky, turn to 23. If you are Unlucky, turn to 80.

Rolling the dice yielded a 7, meaning that Sinbad is Lucky.

23
The ugly Ogre grunts and snuffles but doesn’t wake up. Sweat runs down your brow as you reach the chair. The acrid smell of the Ogre’s unwashed body fills your nostrils. Slowly you lift the bag off the back of the chair and tiptoe out of the cave. In the corridor you open the bag to find a dagger and a gold ring which fits nicely on the thumb of your left hand. Breathing a sigh of relief, you walk on. Turn to 139.

139
The corridor eventually comes to an end at a solid oak door. You try the handle and are surprised to find that it is unlocked. Slowly, you open the door into a dark room. The only light inside comes from a burning candle on a shelf on the far wall. Something else on the shelf also catches your eye as it sparkles in the candlelight. If you want to examine the sparkling object, turn to 381. If you would rather close the door and walk back down the corridor, turn to 365.

Investigate everything we could walk past without investigating.

[Queen of Swords]

Investigate the sparkly.

[SGamerz]

Examine the sparkly.

[JourneymanN00b]

Votes registered; examining the sparkling object.

381
The room is empty except for the sparkling object, which you see is a crystal pendant mounted on a silver chain. If you want to put it around your neck, turn to 239. If you would rather leave the room without the pendant and walk back down the corridor, turn to 365.

[SGamerz]

Eat it or wear it.

[Queen of Swords]

Wear the pendant.

[Thaluikhain]

Around the neck!

[JourneymanN00b]

Votes registered; wearing the pendant.

239
The pendant feels warm against your skin and it also gives off a faint green glow. If you want to take off the pendant, leave the room and walk back down the corridor, turn to 365. If you would rather leave the pendant on, turn to 62.

Please make your votes before 7:00 PM PDT or a choice receives 3 votes to guarantee that they will be counted.

[Queen of Swords]

Leave it on.

[JourneymanN00b]

Vote registered; leaving the pendant on.

62
The pendant you are wearing is a lucky charm. Add 1 LUCK point. It also has another magical property: it will glow brightly if somebody you are talking to is lying. Feeling pleased with your new treasure, you leave the room. Turn to 365.

365
As soon as the door shuts behind you, you hear the sound of metal grating against stone. Suddenly, the floor opens up beneath your feet and the corridor section you are standing on collapses. You slide feet first down a dark stone chute and are unable to stop yourself from falling to the bottom. Test your Luck. If you are Lucky, turn to 105. If you are Unlucky, turn to 179.

Rolling the dice yielded a 6, meaning that Sinbad was Lucky.

105
Scratched, bruised and battered, you land with a thump at the bottom of a dark pit. There is no time to recover as a GIANT SPIDER scurries out of a dark recess on its long hairy legs, intent on feasting on your corpse. You are trapped and must fight.

GIANT SPIDER       SKILL 7 STAMINA 8

If you win, turn to 21.



The fight:
Round 1: Giant Spider Attack Strength: 15, Player Attack Strength: 16
Giant Spider Stamina: 6, Player Stamina: 8
Round 2: Giant Spider Attack Strength: 13, Player Attack Strength: 20
Giant Spider Stamina: 4, Player Stamina: 8
Round 3: Giant Spider Attack Strength: 14, Player Attack Strength: 21
Giant Spider Stamina: 2, Player Stamina: 8
Round 4: Giant Spider Attack Strength: 15, Player Attack Strength: 20
Giant Spider Stamina: 0, Player Stamina: 8

To some mild surprise, Sinbad flawlessly kills the Giant Spider.

21
You crawl into the dark recess which leads to the Giant Spider’s lair. Your face brushes against a thick, sticky web which you claw at blindly with your hands. As your eyes adjust to the darkness you see some items among the debris. There is a glass ball, a broken dagger, an iron key with the number 34 stamped on it, a short stick sharpened at both ends and a leather pouch. Inside the pouch you find an exotic yellow flower that is dry and withered. It gives off a wonderful aroma and you feel immediately energetic and strong. Add 1 SKILL and 1 STAMINA point. After taking any of the items that you want, you manage to climb slowly out of the pit and carry on up the corridor. Turn to 98.

98
You continue along the dimly lit corridor until you come to another doorway in the left-hand wall. The door is unlocked. If you want to open the door, turn to 167. If you want to carry on without further delay, turn to 151.



Please make your votes on what to take from the Giant Spider’s lair and what to do next before 9:00 AM PDT or a destination receives 3 votes to guarantee that they will be counted.

167
The door opens into a marble-floored room in the middle of which stands an ornate stone table. Two shining breastplates lie on top of the table, one is made of bronze and the other is made of iron. If you want to try on the bronze breastplate, turn to 3. If want to try on the iron breastplate, turn to 37. If you do not wish to try on either, you leave the room and continue up the corridor. Turn to 151.
