@gamer_excited About three months to put together, working late evenings mostly. I went through a couple of different drafts too, until settling on a piratical theme. @MattBearClark helped a lot too, organising the layout and numbering.

@jonathanboakes I can't put this book down....it's amazing! I can hear all the characters voices in my head when I read the lines....it's made me want to play the game again. How long did it take you to make the book Jonathan? I'm really impressed!

@gamer_excited Thank you! 🤓

#KrippensCurse A #LostCrown Adventure is the sequel to one of the most immersive games I’ve played. I used to play #TheLostCrown at night in the dark with an EMF meter beside me. That same creeping tension and isolation carries into this book. I can’t wait to start this adventure

Got my newest @jonathanboakes merch so I may properly fangirl one of my top 10 games of all time. Holy smackers it's a hefty book, chock full of goodness. (Bonus points if you can guess the other two games on this shelf).

@MomatCookieBox Thank you! A big adventure, like the first Lost Crown. 🤓

@IoryNarico No idea it was art commissioned by Russian publisher Akella. I prefer it over the USA one, which had even less to do with the game. At a push the girl is Verity, a popular ghost from the game. As for the crow, there’s lots in the game. Mirror, Nigel’s first experiment is scrying.

@jonathanboakes I'm doing About Me: Video Games thing and I have a question - who is the lady strangling a crow on the cover of Lost Crown? What's the story behind that cover if you don't mind

@gamer_excited Thank you! I hope you like it. Very ‘Lost Crown’ I hope.

@jonathanboakes Just purchased.....thank you.
