For the entire genre, also known as "gamebooks", click here.An Adventurer Is You!The Choose Your Own Adventure series is a famous and highly successful example of the gamebook genre with 250 million copies in print. The series, begun in 1979, saw the peak of its fame in The '80s, and after Bantam Books ceased publication of the books, was revived in 2007 under the independent company Chooseco.The stories are told in Second-Person Narration, which is justified in a meta sort of way: you're the one reading the book and making the decisions about what to do next, so you should play the role of the protagonist. Plots included Time Travel, UFO abduction, cross-continent racing, getting lost at sea, solving murder mysteries and coping with supercomputers. There were many Crossover titles, including ones with Disney movies, Star Wars, Goosebumps, and Indiana Jones. There are typically more ways of failing and/or dying than succeeding. Death sometimes comes in horribly inventive ways, yielding textual Ludicrous Gibs.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); }) | |

Abandoned Mine | |
| Choose Your Own Adventure / int_1bc0ca82 | comment |
Abandoned Mine: A recurring location in several of the books. Sometimes, these mines hide a treasure and lead to a "happy ever after" ending ... or set up the main story where the reader and others are being pursued by the bad guys. Other times, it's a place where the reader is trapped — or in at least one case, is taken (along with several others) by gunpoint by the book's bad guys, where the protagonists are transported (by elevator) to the bottom of a shaft several hundred feet beneath ground level and left for dead. | |
