What is The Wailing Lighthouse Game
Fifth title in the Famous Five Adventure Games book series. A "make your own adventure game" based on the Famous Five children's book, "Five Go to Demon's Rocks".
Players start at the first paragraph and roll the Famous Five die to select the first step on their adventure. In subsequent paragraphs, players receive instructions about how to proceed: they must make decisions about which way to go next, roll the die, or solve clues using the included playing cards (in the shape of various tools, such as a torch or a codebook). The more clues solved, the better chance of unraveling the final mystery. And running out of provisions (picnic cards) automatically ends the adventure!
From the back of the book:
In this original series of Adventure Game Books, YOU decide what they do and whether they solve the mystery or not.
