August 20, 2010 – Big Blue Bubble Inc.
announced today that Fighting Fantasy: Creature of Havoc has been
released to the iTunes Store!
Are you ready for the most unusual Fighting Fantasy adventure
yet?
You begin this adventure not knowing where you are or who you
are. All you know is that you are some kind of creature of
instinct, understanding little. During the course of the adventure,
it may be possible for you to begin to control your bestial nature,
to find out more about yourself, and even to learn your destiny.
But even if you know all this, success is by no means certain, for
the traps and terrors of Trolltooth Pass are many ... Are you ready
— to become the Creature of Havoc?
Fighting Fantasy: Creature of Havoc is the fourth release in the
Fighting Fantasy series and includes iPhone/iPod Touch support, as
well as our new iPad support.
Now you can experience the books that have sold over 15 million
copies worldwide, on your iPhone or iPad. Fighting Fantasy fans
will love the classic story and original illustrations with a
technological twist. No more dice, pencils, or bookmarks. All the
special features are built in!

About Fighting Fantasy
The Fighting Fantasy book series was born in 1982 when authors
Steve Jackson and Ian Livingstone created a revolutionary new idea
for the fantasy genre with the first title, The Warlock of Firetop
Mountain. The reader became the hero of his or her own fantasy
adventure in a story that was part book, part game. After each
paragraph a decision must be made; which way to turn, whether to
fight or flee, which mysterious character to approach, and what
risks to take. Each decision sent the reader to a different page to
discover the consequences of their choice, with each read-through
ending either in disaster, or with the discovery of the ultimate
goal. To date, the series has seen more than 70 titles published
and more than 14 million copies sold worldwide. For more details,
