Terrain Quest
A downloadable game
Terrain Quest is a map-based adventure. It uses a combination of simple top-down maps and look-up codes which take you through the adventure.
The look-up codes are randomised, so you don't know what will happen next until you get to that point in the adventure. In this way it's similar to a gamebook.
The PDF has two pages of rules, 9 map pages, and 39 look-up entries for the story, items, enemies, etc.

But... why letters instead of numbers?
Good question. I decided on letters early on and then I assume the reason I wanted letters stopped being true at some point. e.g. I think I wanted to make the first letter relevant to the entry at some point?
Do the letters cause you an issue?
I understood. The concept was changed in the process :) BTW, the initial idea may be was interesting.
I haven't played yet, but it seems to me that it would be more convenient and familiar with numbers. At least with numbers, it's easier to search than attempt to remember the alphabet.
But this game seem be interesting in any case.
Got it, thank you. It's relatively easy to change the letters to numbers, so if anyone else brings it up, or if you find it makes things harder to manage, I can change it.
