| Guillermo's Thoughts: |
(Review based on the Spanish translation.) Much like Galactic Raiders, The Weird Zone is designed so that the scoring system rewards careful choice-making. It is certainly an above-average gamebook, with entertaining writing and several non-obvious choices. My only complaint is that the three endings which give the highest scores are located right next to each other in the decision tree; if they had been scattered throughout the book gameplay would have been still more interesting. If you can overlook this flaw, you'll have a lot of fun with the book. |
