Choose-your-own-adventure type stories evolved into the excellent Fighting Fantasy book series, and 'The Way of the Tiger' gamebook series, but Diceman took it to the stratosphere, and stands as one of the best things under the 2000ad banner.
Playing as Torquemada running around in a Bosch painting, or selecting your Blitzspear speed in the Torture Tube, each story has an allround fun feel about it.
Highly recommended.

I have most of the originals but will be picking this up soon. Might as well do it while I remember.
I have all the originals from 1986, but was very tempted to pick this up.
Mainly because it would be 1.4 kg of the most condensed thrill-power available.
