View:While I really like the premise of this book, it doesn't come together very well. First of all, the book itself seems kind of hastily thrown together; on page ten there's some text saying "Art A" where presumably an illustration was supposed to be inserted, and throughout the book the word "millennium" is spelled wrong. The game design itself is rather unthrilling as well, having several inconsistencies and relying too much on random chance. This could have been a wonderfully unique gamebook, but as it is it's decidedly unsatisfying.
Having just finished the spectacular Howl of the Werewolf, I decided to pick a similar title up and give it a run-through. Curse of the Werewolf, where to begin? You can guess that it involves your transformation into a werewolf, then your search for a cure, so let's get right to the gameplay.
You aren't automatically a slavering man-beast once the curse takes root; most of the time you waver between humanity and lycanthropy. As a half-beast you're a better fighter (even in armed combat, which is weird. Must be something like the Teen Wolf gift for basketball, I reckon), stronger, and have sharper senses. If you allow yourself to become a full werewolf, or circumstances force it onto you, you're better still, but have little to no control over your actions. Aside from that it's pretty much your standard AD&D book in terms of mechanics. Every so often you roll a skill check and try to beat a certain number. There's a special weapon you can find, which again is weird in a werewolf book, but except for your experience and hit point scores Curse requires very little bookkeeping.
There's two main paths through the book, one which I found satisfying (if abrupt at times), and another that involved combat with a variety of interesting monsters. Aside from having more potential to show the downside of your powers, though, I didn't enjoy the second as much. I did like that (SPOILER WARNING) it's possible to achieve a happy ending yet not be cured of your affliction. Howl of the Werewolf by comparison had no interest in showing that maybe there's life after lycanthropy (/SPOILER) Compared to Howl of the Werewolf, Curse is still the lesser of the two books, but a bad read it's not.
(review based on the Spanish translation)
This book is one of the high points in the series. Indeed, what could be more appealing than playing a warrior who at the start of the story is cursed with lycanthropy and must find a way to cure himself? The book is entertaining and action-packed, and there is more challenge involved in skill checks than is usually the case in this series. There are many different ways in which the adventure can develop, and it's rewarding to play the book again and again in order to find them all. There is also an innovative gameplay element involving the curse of lycanthropy, which is built into the game system so that the character's abilities and self-control diminish as time passes and the curse takes its toll.
The only problem with the book is that, as Demian mentions, which subplot you end up playing depends on a combination of player choices and the results of die rolls. It's true that this makes the book feel random, but I did not find it frustrating to play again and again in order to discover all the secrets the book holds. Overall, an excellent gamebook.

He has become a symbol of pride for the Butler community and a representation of the university's values and traditions. The selection and training of a mascot is a careful and deliberate process. Butler Blue III is the third in a line of bulldogs who have served as the university's mascot. The lineage of Butler Blue mascots began in 2000 with the original Butler Blue I, followed by Butler Blue II, and now Butler Blue III. The process of training a mascot involves obedience training, socialization, and acclimating the dog to crowds and loud noises. Mascots must also be in good health and well-cared for to ensure their physical well-being during events and appearances. Overall, the Butler sports mascot, Trip, plays a vital role in creating a sense of pride, unity, and excitement among the Butler community. Through his spirited presence, he embodies the competitive spirit of the university's athletic teams and serves as a beloved symbol of school spirit..

- Review: As an alum of Butler University, I was expecting the sports mascot to be a representation of our school spirit and pride. However, I was quite disappointed with what I saw. The mascot lacked energy and personality, and it failed to instill any excitement or enthusiasm in the crowd. It felt like a missed opportunity to boost school spirit and engage with the fans at sporting events. Overall, I believe the Butler sports mascot needs a major overhaul to better embody the spirit of our university.

- Review: The Butler sports mascot was a letdown, to say the least. It appeared outdated and out of touch with the modern era. The design felt cliché and unoriginal, lacking any creativity or freshness. I couldn't help but feel that the mascot was just going through the motions rather than genuinely connecting with the fans. It's time for Butler to rethink their sports mascot and bring it into the 21st century with a design that truly reflects the dynamic and diverse community we are part of.

- Review: I was not impressed with the Butler sports mascot. It felt like a cheap imitation of other mascots I have seen before. The costume was poorly made and lacked attention to detail, looking more like a generic character than a true representation of Butler University. The mascot's movements also seemed clumsy and uncoordinated, failing to capture the imagination of the crowd. Overall, it was a lackluster performance from the Butler sports mascot that left me feeling unenthused and disappointed.
