The books are illustrated by Kev Crossley. A feature of the titles in the series is that they take classic works of literature and give them a dark twist, often combining steampunk elements, whilst also turning them into works of interactive fiction. Some of the titles take inspiration from more than one work of classic literature, such as NEVERLAND - Here Be Monsters!, which uses elements of both J. M. Barrie's Peter Pan and Wendy and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's The Lost World. GameplayThe ACE Gamebooks series are similar in terms of both gameplay and layout to Fighting Fantasy gamebooks, designed to be read by a single player. The name for the series comes from the initial letters of the three attributes players keep track of throughout the books, Agility, Combat and Endurance. However, some books in the series introduce other attributes, such as Insanity and Logic, in Alice's Nightmare in Wonderland, and Mutiny in NEVERLAND - Here Be Monsters! However, the name 'ACE' also references the fact that instead of dice, cards can be used to generate random numbers. Another feature of the series is that in many of the books the reader can choose which character they want to play as.[1] Each player character has unique content written especially for them, which includes unlockable mini-quests in books such as The Wicked Wizard of Oz. CombatCombat is simulated by rolling dice or picking random playing cards from a standard deck. These randomly-generated numbers are added to the player's, or an opponent's, Combat score to produce a Combat Strength. The Combat Strengths of the player and the opponent are compared, with the higher one winning the Combat Round and deducting Endurance points from the other. Combat in the books also uses an initiative system, with whoever has the initiative gaining a Combat bonus. Attributes
Books in the seriesThe series consists of three books so far:
A copy of The Wicked Wizard of Oz is on display in the All Things Oz Museum in Chittenango, New York,[2] along with a set of bookmarks produced as rewards for backers of the Kickstarter that was run to fund production of the book. See also
