[Let's Play] Fighting Fantasy 60 – Eye of the Dragon

[SGamerz]

I'm wary about approaching someone/something that deliberately faces away from us - makes me suspect something like a Gorgon. I think we should continue walking.

[JourneymanN00b]

Thank you for voting. I am going to resolve this 1-1 tie by having Sinbad continuing to walk up the corridor.

Another door appears in the right-hand wall of the passageway. It is made of dark oak and is standing half open. If you want to enter the room, turn to 6. If would rather keep on walking, turn to 112.

You enter a small room which is completely empty except for a playing card lying on the floor. It is the Queen of Spades and it looks slightly unusual in that the queen has a very wide grin on her face. If you want to pick up the card, turn to 129. If you would rather leave the room and walk on, turn to 112.

[Beroli]

Leave the room and walk on.

[SGamerz]

Pick up the card.

[JourneymanN00b]

Thank you for voting. I will break the 1-1 tie by having Sinbad pick up the card.

129
You pick up the card and it springs out of your hand landing back on the floor. There is a sudden flash of blinding light. The card disappears and standing before you, from out of nowhere, is an old woman dressed as the Queen of Spades. She smiles and says, ‘Thank you so much. Here are 5 Gold Pieces for your trouble.’ She hands you the gold before walking slowly and elegantly out of the room. Still somewhat puzzled, you put the coins in your backpack and continue your quest. Turn to 112.

112
Further up the passageway you see another door on the right-hand wall. You listen at the door and hear scratching sounds coming from the other side. If you want to enter the room, turn to 79. If you wish to carry on walking up the passageway, turn to 336.

You enter a disused kitchen where the dirty cupboards are crammed with broken boxes, old buckets, cracked bowls and dented cooking utensils. A table with one leg missing lies upturned next to a pile of rotten potatoes. Three GIANT RATS are gnawing on some old leather boots in the far corner and do not seem to notice you. If you want to leave the kitchen before you are seen, turn to 336. If you want to fight the Rats, you can do so one at a time.

First GIANT RAT       SKILL 5       STAMINA 4
Second GIANT RAT       SKILL 5       STAMINA 3
Third GIANT RAT       SKILL 5       STAMINA 2

If you win, turn to 229.

After wiping the blood from your sword you begin a search of the kitchen. There are lots of utensils, pots and pans but nothing of use to you. You are about to leave when you notice a corked green bottle on top of a cupboard. You pick it up and uncork it to find that it contains a clear, odourless liquid. If you want to drink some of the liquid, turn to 32. If you would rather pour it away, leave the kitchen and continue up the corridor, turn to 336.

[Queen of Swords]

We willingly drank poison, so we might as well try a swig of this.

[Thaluikhain]

I guess, though this seems even more ill-advised. But trying things is more interesting than not, so drink random liquid we found.

[SGamerz]

Drink it. Maybe the poison will cancel each other out.

[JourneymanN00b]

Drinking some of the liquid received 3 votes, so Sinbad will do this.

32
The liquid seems to burn your throat, but the feeling changes to a soothing glow. You have drunk a potion of healing. Add 2 STAMINA points. There is a little of the potion left so you replace the cork in the bottle and put it in your backpack. Feeling a lot stronger, you leave the room and continue up the corridor. Turn to 336.

336
You soon arrive at a formidable-looking iron door in the left-hand wall. If you want to try to open the door, turn to 293. If you would rather walk on, turn to 173.

Try door.

Try.

[JourneymanN00b]

Votes registered; trying to open the door.

293
The door opens into a small room. As you walk in the door slams shut. Behind you stands an ugly, brown-skinned creature, about a metre and a half tall, who is dressed in animal skins. It is a GOBLIN armed with two daggers, intent on slaying you for your treasure.

GOBLIN       SKILL 5       STAMINA 5

If you win, turn to 146.

The fight:
Round 1: Goblin Attack Strength: 10, Player Attack Strength: 15
Goblin Stamina: 3, Player Stamina: 17
Round 2: Goblin Attack Strength: 14, Player Attack Strength: 23
Goblin Stamina: 1, Player Stamina: 17
Round 3: Goblin Attack Strength: 13, Player Attack Strength: 20
Goblin Stamina: -1, Player Stamina: 17

As expected, Sinbad flawlessly sends the Goblin to the pearly gates.

146
A search of the room reveals nothing of interest and so you decide to search the Goblin. You landed some mighty blows on its chest during the battle, which seemed to have little effect on the Goblin. You discover that it is wearing a chain-mail coat under its clothing. It is made of a strange, blue-grey metal and you decide to put it on. Add 1 SKILL point. You leave the room and continue up the corridor. Turn to 173.



173
The dank and gloomy corridor finally ends at a doorway. As you are deciding whether or not to open it, you hear a noise like that of grating metal followed by the loud clang of metal hitting stone. You look around to see that your way back is barred by an iron bar gate that has dropped down from the ceiling. You have no choice but to turn the door handle. You find yourself in a marble-floored room. The room is empty but there are a pair of golden footprints in a silver circle on the floor. A sign on the wall says ‘Please stand on the footprints’. From out of nowhere you hear the sound of thunder followed by a loud evil laugh. If you want to stand on the footprints, turn to 302. If you want to wait and see if the owner of the evil laugh will appear, turn to 103.
