Design a video game, and be recommended some books based on your choices!
You have not been in this arcade for ages. It looks like it has gone out of business. However, you begin to hear a humming sound and see a faint glow up ahead. You realise it is a video game! It seems to be the last one still working. What game is it?
After School
The Cursed Labyrinth
The Ancient Prophecy
Star Flight
You open your eyes and find yourself standing alone on an empty plain. You are aware that you have the power to shape this game. You look at the ground beneath you. What do you want it to be?
Black, cracked earth, with molten lava bubbling beneath.
A hard, metallic floor, its silver scales interlocking.
Grass is okay.
Glassy, beautiful ice, so clear that you can see something trapped in its depths.
In the distance, you make out the faint shape of a giant structure. Squinting, you see:
A hovering metal spaceship.
An old, dilapidated mansion.
A towering castle, made of ice.
A tall, glinting skyscraper.
Suddenly, you hear a growl. Swinging around, you find:
A rabid dog, frothing at the mouth.
A fierce dragon, smoke rising from its muzzle.
A mutated beast that looks like a cross between a tiger and lizard.
An empty-eyed zombie, staggering towards you.
Panicking, you rummage through your pockets; surely in this video game you must be equipped with something that can help. At last, you manage to find:
An old oil lamp, with a tag that says, "rub me for wishes".
A battered boomerang.
A piece of torn parchment, with half of an incantation scrawled on it.
A shiny pen, which at the click of a button shoots out an infrared laser.
A fierce fight ensues. There must be an exit somewhere! Looking around frantically, you see:
A giant, neon-green EXIT sign on top of a nondescript building door.
An old mirror lying on the ground, with something familiar staring out at you.
Mist descending, forming a swirling pool in the ground you can step into.
An open wormhole where you see yourself moments before finding the game.
