Game + Audiobook = Gamebook

Play a book!

Digital Gamebook is an audiobook with unprecedented possibilities in the world of audiobooks.

Gamebooks focus on what is most important in books: stimulating your imagination and experiencing the story.

You can listen to the story like a classic audiobook and also take on the role of the story’s hero.

During a dangerous journey, the main character and his valet end up in a desolate castle. There, in a gloomy atmosphere, the hero discovers a secret of the portrait of a beautiful muse.

One of the stories by the master of Gothic horror, which has inspired many authors, including Oscar Wilde and his classic novel The Picture of Dorian Gray.

do/will you be doing more such accessible gamebooks, are there others like yours which are accessible?

We are working on Gamebook H. P. Lovecraft: The Haunter of the Dark. We hope to finish the game in 2025. As a developer we also created Rosemary's Fate Life Worth Living, however that game is more difficult than The Oval Portrait. And it's also accessible. We want all of our games and programs to be fully touch&audio controllable.

check my other comments.
