THE
SEQUEL IS OUT!!!! FIND OUT MORE ABOUT 'THE PURPLE
EMPEROR' AT HERBIE BRENNAN'S BOOKSHELF
kitten wrangler, just started work at the Chalkhill and Brimstone Miracle® Glue factory, has turned up for his first day a little late.
Unfortunately, eveyone is now hard at work and he must negotiate the mined cobblestone courtyard alone. If only he'd paid more attention in his psychic ability class in school. Who'd ever have thought you'd need it in the real world?
The wrangler can sense how many mines are around him, but can't tell which cobblestones they’re under. You must use your judgment to guide him. But have him step on the wrong stone and BLAM, you can change his name to Hoppy.
If he does hit a mined stone, the kitten wrangler will be thrown into the air and land at random. If the new stone is mined or he hops onto a mined one later, then BOOM, no more need for shoes and another name change.
If at this point, Stumpy the Kitten Wrangler makes one more mistake it will be his last, and this time it will be much more messy with blood and eyeballs hitting the screen.
But stop, rewind.
To impress his bosses the eager wrangler managed the rustle up some alley kittens on his way to the factory. This means he can test the cobblestones for mines! All he has to do is hold a kitten over the stone and drop it.
If the stone is mined that's too bad for the kit. If not, the kitten will bounce off to freedom.
The mined area is larger than the view of the screen but you can use the map in the corner to guide our friend.
The Faerie Wars Cobblestone Minefield is just one of the gut-wrenching fantasy environments described in Herbie Brennan’s incredible new cult novel, Faerie Wars. This is the one Nick Tucker of The Independent described as 'another, often brutal world of beleaguered emperors, malign demons and unreliable faeries; inventive as Harry Potter, dark as Gormenghast and as intelligently probing as Philip Pullman.'
