Anyone played this?

Will it be coming to GOG?

Apparently it was an Android game but now released on PC.

You create a character, with different sets of abilities available, these abilities will be used at certain points in the game, in combat, deduction, reasoning, healing etc.

It's like a Book, you select your next action at the end of the page. So, ....

[I]Joe Blogs walks down the mountain path, suddenly there is an avalanche, what do you do....?[/I]

So, your strength would see if you could climb over it, then a series of QTE's will decide if you succeed, combat is in a similar vein.

Designed for an Android touch screen, on PC you replicate the "swipes" with mouse movement, kinda like Arx Fatalis...a bit.

Check out the Combat @ 21.00
I did try to play this on my Android, but alas my current device wasn't good enough to run the actual combat part of the game and crashed every time I tried to enter it, so I didn't get much far past ontroduction phase of the game. But what I did manage to play it, the game is graphically very nice. It does feel like an interesting game for sure.

Yes, I thought it looked pretty cool, but the QTE's are kinda scaring me off a wee bit.
I spoke to a fellow Lone Wolf fan who claimed anyone into the book series will love it – it’s a whole new story written by the man Joe Dever himself, an interactive novel with meaningful choices working in conjunction with the skills you’ve selected. I'll pick it up soon.

For anyone who has no idea what I’m on about, Lone Wolf is a Choose Your Own Adventure series (or Gamebooks) since the 1980s. Most people probably think of the Fighting Fantasy series, but I was always partial to Lone Wolf because it offered a strong sense of continuity and allowed the player to develop their character over the course of an entire series. This is the first time (that I know of) a computer game had been made about it aside from the unofficial Neverwinter Nights mods.
For Lone Wolf news and stuff the place to go is Project Aon, they have released digital versions of the old gamebooks for free (John Dever allowed it) and keep track of all the news relating to all of his work.

Not a computer game per se but there is a app for android with which you can read and play the classic Lone Wolf books. It's called Lone Wolf Saga.
