Since we are all into rather pessimistic future fiction (I guess lol), here is a Kickstarter for gamebooks set in a dystopia :  https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1368488837/westward-dystopia-a-post-apocalyptic-gamebook-rpg .

The author mentions some inspirations : "... Stephen King's The Dark Tower, Dave Morris's Heart of Ice, and the Fallout series of games..."

It is not expensive for the e-book version and the goal is almost attained.

Yeah, me too. I do not have much time to read nowadays, even less read a gamebook lol. But i do love post-apocalyptic settings and the price is hard to beat hehe. The author seems pretty open in the comments section too, which is always a good thing.
