The same as with role-playing games (see Zenny´s translation). You pretend to be someone else (superhero) but this time the whole adventure has the form of a book. Good luck

It is perhaps unfortunate, but it's true. The English word, like so many others is being used already by the very people who need it. Try and tell them they should use "knihohra" or some such thing. Even if you come up with a legitimate word, it won't be used: "slučitelnost" is one of the few words which has a virtual one-on-one correspondence with an English word, in this case "compatibility", yet the ugly sounding "kompatibilita" has taken over, just like "kreditkarta" instead of "ůvěrová karta". :-)

(Yeah, I did write \"ů\" instead of \"ú\" in \"úvěrová karta\". The computer I was working on was not set to Central European fonts... :-)
