Interactive Fiction for $1.99 or Less

Amazon is having a sale on Kindle Interactive Fiction, with all included titles at $0.99 to $1.99. They've even separated the titles out by which Kindle devices they work on (as some of the titles don't work on the Kindle Touch), so you don't have to look thru the ones that your Kindle won't support. From what I can see, each of these is 50% off the regular price, or better (at least one at 99 cents, I paid $3.99 when it first came out). The first two, in particular, were priced much too high for me to consider them, before, but I may try one of them out with this sale.

The sale goes until the end of February, so you have all week to decide which one(s) to get (just bookmark this page and come back to make your choices), as I doubt these will go up in price early or disappear (although I wouldn't count on having Feb 29 as a sale day, just in case they didn't remember it was leap year when they set up their sale dates.

Please note: Many of the titles include a warning their their content may not be inappropriate for children.
