Chose your own adventure books, do you think they should be making bit of a mark on the digital gaming world and other game books like them?

What kind of Fighting Fantasy books do you like ?
Or any of the classics from the age of the gamebook.

"Roadwarden" pretty much is exactly that and I think it was a surprisingly huge success.

I love that straight off, just seeing the layout of it. I'll probably buy it soon.
What kind of length has it got?

If you used algebraic notation you'd save on a lot of pages.

I kinda prefer the parser based text adventures.

It's just seems slightly more interactive if you can type the stuff in yourself over multiple choice questions.

Although generally the difference is there's more wrong answers... lol
But also more room to hide easter eggs.
