Originally published by Puffin Books in 1983, the title is the third gamebook in the Fighting Fantasy series, and the first of several to feature the character Yaztromo. It was later republished by Wizard Books in 2002. The gamebook was also adapted into a video game. Rules{{main|Fighting Fantasy}}PlotThe Forest of Doom is a fantasy scenario in which the hero undertakes a quest through a perilous forest to find the missing pieces of a magic warhammer that can help the dwarves in their war with the trolls.[1]ReceptionMarcus L. Rowland reviewed The Forest of Doom for the June 1983 issue of White Dwarf, rating the title a 10 out of a possible 10. Rowland suggested that only "[r]eally stupid players" would try to loot the home of the mage, because they "will not like the consequences", and noted the lethality of the forest area with "some encounters being survivable only by luck or remarkably good combat rolls, while others can be settled without any conflict".[2]In other mediaA ZX Spectrum and Commodore 64 video game based on the book was released by Puffin Books in 1984.[3][4] The gamebook was also converted into a 40-page d20 System role-playing adventure by Jamie Wallis. It was published by Myriador in 2004[5] and reissued in pdf format by Greywood Publishing in 2008.[6] This gamebook has later been released by Tin Man Games. In 2018, the audio company FoxYason Music Productions, known for their work with Big Finish Productions announced that they would be releasing an original, full-cast audio drama based on The Forest of Doom in a CD boxset with The Citadel of Chaos, Deathtrap Dungeon, and Creature of Havoc for summer 2018. It will be written by David N. Smith, directed by Richard Fox and will feature Rachel Atkins returning to the role of Vale Moonwing from FoxYason Music's first release based on The Warlock of Firetop Mountain, sub-titled The Hero's Quest.[7] References1. ^1 2 3 4 {{cite book|last=Schick |first=Lawrence|authorlink=Lawrence Schick|title=Heroic Worlds: A History and Guide to Role-Playing Games|publisher=Prometheus Books |year=1991|isbn=0-87975-653-5|pages=365–366}} 2. ^{{cite journal |last=Rowland |first=Marcus |authorlink=Marcus Rowland (author) |title=Open Box |journal=White Dwarf |issue=42 |page=16 |publisher =Games Workshop |date=June 1983}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.thehouseofgames.net/index.php?t=10&id=271 |title=Forest of Doom (1984) review for Commodore 64 and ZX Spectrum |publisher=Thehouseofgames.net |date= |accessdate=2013-12-12}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.worldofspectrum.org/infoseekid.cgi?id=0001842 |title=Forest of Doom, The |publisher=World of Spectrum |date= |accessdate=2013-12-12}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.sfandfantasy.co.uk/php/detailsm.php?reference=78120|title=SFandFantasy.co.uk - Forest of Doom. 2004|accessdate=23 August 2014}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://rpggeek.com/rpgitem/61690/forest-doom|title=Forest of Doom - RPG Geek|accessdate=23 August 2014}} 7. ^{{cite web|title=Fighting Fantasy Audio Dramas |url=https://www.fightingfantasyaudiodramas.com|website=www.fightingfantasyaudiodramas.com|accessdate=23 April 2018}} External links
