BOOK OF FOOLS adds pay-to-win system

We are happy to announce that the fan favorite Book of Fools has gone free-to-play!  That’s right, the most-expensive gaming book of all time can now be downloaded for no charge!

To help us serve you better, Book of Fools now has implemented a “pay to win” system.  While you are still welcome to level your characters up through experience, after 20 minutes of game-play, all experience-points are then on a one-megasecond cool-down timer. And after 40 minutes, all d12s are removed from the game.  If you don’t want to wait the short time for the cool-down to refresh, you can use your persistent Internet connection to send us money.  (Yes, another handy feature of the “pay to win” system is that we’re constantly aware of what you’re doing, where you are, and what’s stored in your device’s memory that you don’t think anyone else knows about.  Don’t worry, this was all covered in that “I have read this” AUP dialog.)  Send us enough money, and we’ll let you use d20s!  Heck, we’ll let you use d22s, too. I’m sure someone out there has one of those. Pay us even more money and we will declare you the winner of the game!

One thing we really want to express—and it’s something that hasn’t really been touched on in a lot of the discussion about the game that we’ve seen—is that in Book of Fools, all content is accessible to paying and non-paying players. It’s just that paying players get all that content before 2020.

We’re always looking at new ways to gather player feedback so that we can improve our games.  For example, we’re looking to improve the one-click rating system that, at present, only lets you rate Book of Fools at “six out of five stars”.  While this system performs 20% better than a typical rating system, we have listened to your feedback.  Some of you expressed concerns about a rare bug.  Apparently, a confused user sometimes finds a way to rate the book at less than six stars.  (At this time, our staff has been unable to reproduce this error.)  If that happens, you are automatically signed up for a service that mailed you every 45 minutes to ask why.  And then the service goes through your friends list and emails them to ask why.  And the service makes your portable devices automatically turn on, just to ask you, again.  Even when your device was in “airplane mode”.  Our attorneys have advised us to say that there’s no scientific proof that cell phones actually crash airplanes, so you should totally be safe.

BOOK OF FOOLS – we didn’t make this for us. We made it for you, the players. And your money. You’re welcome.
