Re: I am now the new ruler of Firetop Mountain

Now I am the ruler of Firetop Mountain.
This adventure book took a lot longer than expected, mainly because I stored a complete map of the book in a graph database. Which is madness, of course.
I found out that there is not one, but two winning key combinations.
While I could easily find the keys to make the one, I wasn't able to find the keys needed to make the other - there should be a key with a 1, or a 27, or a 72 somewhere, but I never found it, despite visiting every single node the adventure book had.
Yes, I was not just "reading" the numbers one after the other, I was actually making a character and visiting the nodes in-game.
I DID find out that there is one number missing in the book, maybe they intended to hide the key there, who knows.
It was driving me quite mad.
Yes. It took the better part of two weekends to play this book so thouroughly. It shall not happen to me again that I treat a game book like that!
