Yes, it's the return of the random mixed up titles of terrible doom once again.

going in the wrong order, first off lets talk about Spain, ----- or rather Spanish.

audiogames.net now has a counterpart in audiojuegos.net, a site set up by the hard work of Javier Mairna, which lists earhole incertable games available exclusively in Spanish. anyone of those clever people who speak Spanish (I never got that far beyond Buenos Dias), should Check out the site here and to find out more, just read Javier's forum thread.

Now, from sunny spain to the country of the sun, ---- that is of course, Sommerlund in the world of Aon, birthplace of a chap called Lone wolf.

Not to be confused with the submarine sim audiogame from gma, lone wolf is a fantastic series of gamebook adventures, telling the long and epic struggle of Lone wolf, ---- last of the Kai monks, and enemy of the Darklords.

originally published in the 1980's, nicely accessible htmlified versions of all the books are now available on the project.aon site here

Well, Lone wolf's epic quest now draws to a conclusion, as the hard working bunch of people on Project.aon htmlify the last book in the grand master series, the Curseof Nahr, making it possible to take wolfy right through from novice to wise and beerdeded master in 20 separate gamebook adventures.

Now, if that's not enough for your gamebook related desires, the Fighting fantasy project see index  have a new one. Last in the adventures started in wrong way go back, the golden crate continues the story of a luckless space adventurer, trying to wander the galaxy, save fair maidens and avoid getting too drunk on saturday nights.

to see if all ends happily, ---- or in some horrible bloodbath of galactic and chilling proportions, you can Begin your search for the crate here

Finally, it's time to report an entirely brand new, ---- or at least new to us, fantasy adventure game. Pick fro races such as human or giant, wonder through a huge fantasy world completing quests, seeing strange sites, and generally giving all evil sorcerers a very nasty headache. Welcome to Westfront pc, an interactive fiction style rpg originally written in the mid 90's, then revamped in 2004.

You can see the developers website here and though we haven't got an index page up and running yet (though should life permit we'll be updating things soon), but thanks to forumite drg, there is a mighty thread about the game found here containing manual transcripts, direct download links, lots of random chatter and other goodies.

With all this, it's just left for me to wish you most joyous gameosity!

With our dreaming and singing, Ceaseless and sorrowless we! The glory about us clinging Of the glorious futures we see,
Our souls with high music ringing; O men! It must ever be
That we dwell in our dreaming and singing, A little apart from ye. (Arthur O'Shaughnessy 1873.)
