What book would you adapt into a game?

[Bandini]

Games like I have no mouth and i must scream, Call of Cthulhu series, Sherlock Holmes, Agatha Christie are really awesome, most of them classics. So, what book you think it would be a great game?
I start with Winter Moon by Dean Koontz. It would a perfect first person point & click horror adventure.

A bunch of the ones i like actually have computer games. But probably the Elric series.

I think 1Q84 would make a good visual novel. Truncate the story a bit because there is way too much of Tengo waiting at that playground at night like a weirdo and doing absolutely nothing. I just think the story would work better as one of those bizarre sci fi fantasy VNs. Fuka Eri can be one of those quirky waifus. Her actual character is so exhaustingly bizarre that she started to really annoy me. Can we explain Tengo's dad a little better too? I feel like there's something important here that goes unsaid and if you are supposed to figure it out well... I can't. Maybe Tengo is the same type of person as Fuka Eri. That would explain a lot actually.

Is that time in which LiberoVulpes talks about Hammer's Slammers again, the series has enough short stories and novels to cover multiple genres, strategy games focusing in major operations, tactical shooters to cover the stories focused on individual Slammers, RPG games focusing on the rookies.

The whole series is so open, you can pretty much do anything with the setting, maybe something like Panzers focusing on the main company of the Slammers, or something like Ghost Recon focusing on the infantry squads, or something like Rainbow Six focusing on the White Mice and all their shenanigans.

There is a lot of untapped potential there for sci-fi military games.
