How about a book review? There are plenty of games on Abandonia that are based on novels or series of novels. A quick glance I had through some of the categories reveals the following:
Alone in the Dark, Call of Cthulhu, Discworld, Dune, Frederik Pohl's Gateway, The Lost Files of Sherlock Holmes, Neuromancer, Ringworld - Revenge of the Patriarch...
And that is without even checking the text-adventures. I'm pretty sure there is a Hitchiker's Guide one for example. I have read all these books and would be happy to attempt a review. If however they were to be linked to the game-of-the-novel I would have to play through them. Although, obviously, someone could well have a head start on this. I don't know if there would be a lack of interest in the review though? Hopefully, the article would encourage people to read some of these excellent books. Thanks for listening!

Next issue will have an article about games based on books, actually
. All the games you mentioned except for Neuromancer and Alone In The Dark are mentioned.
