The Dark Tower series consists of seven books written across the entire span of Stephen King's prolific career. The books follow the adventures of a gunslinger as he tries to reach the dark tower, and take place on a dark post-apocalyptic vision of Earth. There are heavy rumours saying that books are being turned into a series of films, and that a game is also in the works.

The series of books is going to be a trilogy of films directed by Ron Howard. Eurogamer are reporting a source who has claimed that a game tie-in is also planned. "There's also a very ambitious Game component being planned that will further utilize elements from the books. [If everything continues on schedule and the budget is approved], it looks like things are coming together for a late-summer or early-September start."

The depth of the mythology behind the Dark Tower series could make for a great game world. What would you want to see from a Dark Tower game?
