Buffalo Castle is a gamebook first published by Flying Buffalo in 1976 (). Using the "Tunnels & Trolls" role-playing system, "Buffalo Castle" consists of 150 paragraphs in A4 format.
Description.
After a friend suggested that someone should make a dungeon adventure book that allows the player to choose an answer and turn to another page, Rick Loomis wrote "Buffalo Castle" (1976). "Buffalo Castle" was an introduction to "Tunnels & Trolls", a basic dungeon for a warrior of level 1–2.
Although it is widely believed that the "Fighting Fantasy" series of books were the first gamebooks to use dice and allow the character to possess statistics and equipment, "Buffalo Castle" pre-dates the "Fighting Fantasy" series by six years and used the same types of mechanics. "Buffalo Castle" may have been the first published adventure gamebook.
Reception.
Steve Jackson reviewed "Buffalo Castle" in "The Space Gamer" No. 9. Jackson concluded, "If you're into role-playing, you'll enjoy "Buffalo Castle". If you're into solo role-playing, buy it."
In other media.
"Buffalo Castle" is included in the mobile game Tunnels and Trolls Adventures.
