==Advanced Fighting Fantasy==

The first attempt to convert the singleplayer gamebooks into a proper multiplayer RPG was ''Fighting Fantasy: The Introductory Role Playing Game''. It was pretty much just a direct carbon copy of the singleplayer rules, so there wasn't much point. The first book for the actual Advanced Fighting Fantasy system was ''Dungeoneer'', which added the concept of [[Skills|Special Skills]] that allowed characters do be differentiated from each other. It boiled down to a very simplified version of [[GURPS]], being 2d6 [[Roll Under]] the relevant Special Skill (or your base SKILL if you didn't have one that applied). It's a very simple, rules light system for messing around in, though the fact that you still had to [[Honest Rolls Character|roll all your stats]] and had no way to permanently increase STAMINA was pretty bullshit, and magic wasn't balanced well since spells cost STAMINA to cast, but one of the most basic spells restored STAMINA, so there was no real limit on casting.

A 2nd edition was made in 2011. Changes were mostly to the broken chargen and magic systems; now you use a point buy system to make characters, MAGIC is now its own stat requires seperate investment than SKILL, and you can now use experience points to increase your STAMINA cap. Sourcebooks are still being made and sold as PDFs, so someone must be buying them.
