Things get nasty

Out now: A Land Fit For Heroes is a dark fantasy gamebook by the Crysis 2 writer

A Land Fit For Heroes is a gamebook trilogy by Richard Morgan, the writer of Crysis 2 and Syndicate, and it's now available on iOS and Android.

It all takes place in a dark and grim fantasy world that you'll be venturing through with two other players.
Each entry in Morgan's original trilogy followed a different character, you see. And in this multiplayer adaptation you get to be one of them while your accomplices fill the boots of the other two.

These characters are: Kirellin of House Caith (a skilled war veteran), Calnar (a young Majak warrior), and Ilaria (an accomplished thief).

You all have your own skills and are better in certain situations, then. But you'll need to work together, sharing items and voting on decisions, in order to survive.

It should be emphasized that the events, scenarios, and themes in A Land Fit For Heroes gets pretty nasty at times.

One of the character's backgrounds involves him getting molested by his father, for example. You'll also hear about children going missing in marshes and machine-demons enacting violent torture.
