A 1999 Gamebook by Kim Newman, Life's Lottery is a choose-your-own-adventure-style concerning the course of the main character's life - and all the weird and wonderful permutations it can undergo.You are Keith Marion, a rather unassuming young man born in the 1950s to middle-class parents, growing up in the small English village of Sedgwater. You enjoy a happy childhood full of pirate fantasies in the company of your big sister Larraine and your baby brother James, and for the most part, there doesn't seem to be anything unusual on the cards for you... up until the age of six, whereupon one of the school bullies asks you a fateful question: who do you prefer - Napoleon Solo or Ilya Kuryakin?Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Your answer will shape the course of your life, and send you down any number of paths: depending on the choices you make, you might become rich and successful, or you might become a criminal doomed to a life sentence; you may fall in love with any one of a dozen people, or you can spend your days womanizing; you can live an ordinary, unassuming life, or you can become an adventurer and a rebel; you can date Rowena, with her legendary bosom, you can date "Scary Mary", the terror of your school, or you can date Victoria Coyer, the glamorous rockstar-to-be; you can even die young - or find yourself dying unpleasantly after a lifetime of regret - in which case, Go to 0.And if you're not satisfied, you can always go right back to 4 and try again along a different path until you find the ending you prefer. And so on.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Affably Evil | |
| Life's Lottery / int_537dd8fe | comment |
Affably Evil: Much like he was in Quorum, Derek Leech is a frighteningly charming individual when he finally reveals himself to you; his Deal with the Devil simply requires you to carry on exploring possibilities... and if you decline his bargain, he's genuinely proud of you. | |

Arc Words: Dying always concludes a chapter with Go to 0. Chapters that serve as a bridge, rather than a divergence, end with Go on.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); }) | |

Adventures in Comaland | |
| Life's Lottery / int_d5e4c678 | comment |
Adventures In Coma Land: Chapters occurring outside the narrative reveal that the story takes place entirely in Keith Marion's comatose dreams; having fallen victim to a mysterious syndrome plaguing the world in the wake of the Spiders' invasion, you're stuck mentally exploring the various possibilities of your life - and possibly the multiverse itself - until you finally awaken. | |
