Adventure Time with YouTube

Do you remember those "Choose your own Adventure" books? You know, "If Josie a) goes into the library turn to page 42 b) stabs the griffin with a fork turn to page 46 ....". Well those were the precursor to computer based adventure games (starting with text based games like Zork and then evolving into MMORPGs like WoW).

Happy adventuring....
