    Been on that play through for about an hour or so and it I haven't completed it yet.

    Whenever a new Tin Man Gamebook is released I do get excited but I'm not usually in a hurry to buy it. After all, my Gamebook backlog is pretty long and sure it'll go on sale eventually, I'll grab it then. A combination of things led me to buying this at full price close to launch and so far I am very glad that I did.

    You have the usual excellent Tin Man presentation but Ryan North's humour is what makes this special. I really want to share some of the things in the book that I've found hilarious but reading it for yourself in the book is more fun. I haven't read anything of his before but surely I will remedy that sooner rather than later. I already know I want to buy the physical version of this.

    If you're into Gamebooks, buy this. You won't regret it.

    That is a really impressive collection of artists to have worked with. Right away I could tell that Kate Beaton had worked on it, just from the screenshots alone.

    This game makes me laugh so hard! The humor is fantastic and, as with all Tin Man titles, the game is beautifully realized.

    Has anyone else met death almost immediately? This really cracked me up.

    The sequel to Ryan North's To Be Or Not To Be is due for release on June 7th, titled Romeo And/Or Juliet. :D

    The physical version of the book should be available to pre-order from all good booksellers. When I asked Tin Man Games about the possibility of a digital version similar to TBONTB I was met with a resoundingly up in the air-ish "maybe."

    If this is something you'd like to see happen let Tin Man Games know! You can contact them on Twitter and/or Facebook. ;)

    It actually just got updated a day or so ago. I was very pleasantly surprised since they had actually removed it from the App Store before that. However, it suddenly showed up in iTunes for me announcing that they had updated it for iOS 11!
