![]() In my case, I've been working hard to add joystick controller support not only for the Steam version of Fabled Lands but also for a potential Nintendo Switch release (Oh, boy, oh boy!). Adding support for new input devices like a joystick controller, for example, is one such task that can be incredibly time-consuming but is nonetheless essential to ensure that your game is accessible to as many players as possible. Entertaining adventuring.If you're a game developer, you're probably no stranger to the tedious and sometimes mundane tasks that come with the job. Possibly it lacks anything challenging, but it compensates for this with a multitude of varied things to do. Promising, perhaps, more interaction with the other books in the series than its predecessor does, ‘Cities of Gold and Glory’ is a very rewarding adventure gamebook. These quests are of a varied nature and also invoilve some of the other books in the Fabled Lands series. It is at castle Ravayne where the largest collection of side quests can be found and some good alliances can be made. The highlights are probably the Forest of the Forsaken (which is better if you obtained certain information in ‘The War Torn Kingdom’) and Castle Ravayne. However, there are a couple of interesting discoveries that can be made doing this. The seafaring element suffers in much the same way as ‘The War Torn Kingdom’ in that there is actually very little to do on your ship but sail up and down the coast from port to port. Although this makes exploring quite fun as there is often something else to be found in places you have previously passed through, it does mean that to complete some missions or locate certain items you have to repetitively walk up and down the same bit of road occasionally. Many of these encounters can only be reached by random dice rolls. ![]() Most of the side quests are to be found in whilst wandering around between places. Many of the towns and cities lack scenarios in which to become involved. Initially it feels like there isn’t a great deal to do. The writers have created a very believable world that becomes more enticing and addictive the more you explore. Although there isn’t the tension in the air that ‘The War Torn Kingdom’ possessed this book is not lacking in atmosphere. Unlike ‘The War Torn Kingdom’ which placed the adventurer in the uneasy environment of a land recently suffering from a military coup, ‘Cities of Gold and Glory’ is set in a peaceful, almost pastoral land. As the reader does so they will ascend in rank and increase their various attributes. Rather than a set quest the aim is for the reader to develop their character and their material assets. It is entirely the choice of the adventurer which side quests they follow, where they explore, what allegiances they make and how they make investments. Much like the first book in the series, the second provides the reader with a vast landscape to explore at will without a prescribed quest or mission.
