Im currently reading Brendan Keoghs The Videogame Industry Does Not Exist.
Mind if we have a nose at your bookshelf?
What are you currently reading?
Anyone following me on my socials will know about my love of survivalist games.
Along with the book, you get little gifts to open at certain pages.
Often these will be themed around something thats happening in the book at the time.
It also allows you to slowly build up your own personal end-of-the-world survival kit and knowledge trove.
Its a brilliant idea.
And it turns out that bribery is a pretty good way to get me to read.
What did you last read?
With my book club Ive just read This Is How We Lose The Time War.
The prose is verging on the purple-ish at times, but goddamn its beautiful.
Its one thats going to stick with me for a long time.
What are you eyeing up next?
What book do you quote from the most?
; and You do the job thats in front of you.
What book do find yourself bothering friends to read?
Perfume: The Story of a Murderer by Patrick Suskind.
I discovered it before it took off in a big way around the movie.
Evokes the senses like no other book Ive ever read.
What book would you like to see someone adapt to a game?
Books into games, without going the film or TV route first, havent been that prevalent.
Wrongly, in my opinion.
I think theres room in the world for an epic Discworld game one day.
Its just about finding the folks wholl really give it the love it deserves.
The world of Jim Butchers Dresden Files would also be ripe for a great game adaptation.
You could do a great underwater horror game based off those.
