Guillermo's Thoughts: |
I found the historical material presented in this book very interesting. I also appreciated the fact that it strives to be neutral about the conflict it describes, and that it succeeds at it most of the time (I have serious doubts a gamebook which so openly questioned the U.S.'s role in Vietnam would have been approved for American publication back in the eighties). However, the book suffers from the same flaws as many other You Choose historical entries: the three adventures presented are way too short to be of much substance, and the choices are just an excuse to lazily paste together a series of disjointed events instead of providing an engaging gameplay experience. Considering the author is responsible for the decent World War II Spies, this really should have been a whole lot better. |
Special Thanks: | Thanks to Guillermo Paredes for the cover image. |
