1. 1. What data needs to be maintained for a single game? What type?
Int – Number of each item the player has.
Hammer -> removes shackles
Key -> Access to courtyard
Drugs -> drug guards to pass
Int- room number to keep track of players location
Char – User’s input for selection of direction
2. What type of user input do you need? How will your program use this input to decide what
statement to execute next?
User input: Char: n,e,s,w (north, east, south, west) for moving rooms
Char: y/n for agreeing or disagreeing with a statement to make a choice
3. What data needs to be maintained for the total player experience? What Type?
Room number and items need to be reset each game, and maintained throughout the current
game. However, the Char selections will be used once.
4. Is the number of iteration or the total Choose Your Own Adventure known before entering the
loop? No. The player could play multiple times, and take a various number of steps to reach the
end.
What kind of loop should be used? A While loop should be used so once a certain criteria are
met then they player can move on.
5. Where will you add randomness to the game?
I will make a 30% chance of being caught at the courtyard. This adds to the story of randomly
running into guards, and can alter the gameplay by quite a bit.
Print-out of example game-play.
