Instructions

Create your own text$-$based adventure game with at least three levels of choices. It's up to you to determine the

scenarios, the choices, and the consequences.

Keep in mind the following guidelines and requirements:

You need to have at least three levels of scenarios with possible choices. $($This means that every time the user plays

the game they should answer at least three questions because every branch of the game should go three levels

deep.$)$

Scenarios that follow an earlier answer should be handled with nested if statements. In other words, the body$/$

block of the first if statement will contain a print statement and then another if statement inside it$.$

At least one of your scenarios must have more than two possible choices.

In each prompt, write the choices in ALL ${?}^{+}$APS, so that the user knows which words are possible responses to

choose.

Responses should be words $($strings$)$ rather than numbers.

When checking the users responses, you should match on the keyword, regardless of the uppercase$/$lowercase

used in the response $($e$.$g$.,$ "match", "MATCH", "Match" should all work$).$

Making different choices should take you to different scenarios. $($You shouldn't have the same result for different

choices.$)$

Choices should only work for the correct question.

In other words, if one scenario resulted in choices of Run$/$Hide$,$ but another resulted in choices Follow$/$Look$,$ you

should not be able to respond with "Follow" to the question that asked for Run$/$Hide$.$

A good way to accomplish this is to have a series of nested if statements. $($That is$,$ the print and then the next if

statement will be within the body$/$block of the first if statement.$)$

For each question, you should provide an "else" clause to handle the case that the user tries to type something

other than the possible choices. It is up to you how to handle this case.

Showing Creativity and Exceeding Requirements

Obviously, you'll show some creativity by customizing the prompts and choices. To receive points for the "Shows

creativity and exceeds requirements" portion of the rubric for this assignment, you need to add something

additional to the framework of the game. For example, you might add even more levels or you might have more

choices at each level. You might add hidden choices or trick questions. Have fun with this and see what you can do$!$

If you've already learned other programming concepts $($for example, loops, lists, etc.$)$ you are welcome to use those

concepts here as a way to make show creativity and exceed requirements.

Considering Sharing this Program

For this assignment specifically, an additional way that you can receive points for showing creativity and exceeding

requirements by showing your program to at least two other people to have them play it$.$ After they play it$,$ briefly

show them your code and explain how it works. Then, describe your experience in your comment at the top of the

program.

Important: In order to receive credit for showing creativity, you must include a comment at the top of the

program that describes in $1-2$ sentences what you have added.

Milestone Requirements

By the middle of the week, to help make sure you are on track to finish the assignment, you need to complete the

following:

The program should work correctly for the first question and possible choices, and displays a follow$-$up response to

each choice $($including an else condition$).$

For the milestone, you do not need to implement any additional scenarios$/$questions$,$ you only need the first

one.

Create a design for your complete game.

Prepare for the rest of your game by deciding on all the possible prompts, choices, and responses that the

user'might see. You should design the complete game, including else conditions. Then, to finish up the

assignment for the next lesson, you'll just need to code up all of these options.

Feel free to write this design out on paper or in a document $($Word$,$ Google Docs, Powerpoint, etc.$),$ whatever is

most convenient for you. You should write each possible scenario along with its choices. Then, for each choice,

write the resulting scenario with its choices, etc.

You are not required to submit this design to Canvas, but you should complete it as part of your Milestone to

make sure you are prepared to finish the program.

Final requirements

At the end of the week, you need to finish your implementation. If you change your mind slightly from your original

design, that's okay.
