Yep, it's been nice to see a lot of new gamebooks being created again in the last few years. A Choose Your Adventure It doesn't sell in the same Manor as a Dicken's Novel or a Twilight. A shame it's largely a niche market now rather than a major publisher effort but probably a hard sell now with video games and so on.

Gamebooks include visual novels, so they aren't niche.

No, this isn't my signature.

@Zarutaku Gamebooks are Physical Media. Visual Novels are Digital Media They are 2 different things

If you only refer to physical gamebooks, then that's indeed the case, visual novels are digital gamebooks though.

I have always been a sucker for choose Your own Adventure styles.

I really liked House of Leaves, but it was really cumbersome to read on bed. (I am trying to say we have smartphones and hyperlinks now.)
