Description

Grade 11 ics3u cpt

For your grade 11 Computer Science Culminating Activity you will be tasked with creating a text based role playing game. These games were the birthplace of many modern story driven games that crowd the computer and console game market today. With no graphics and just text, these early games relied on the user’s imagination and the story telling ability of the programmer. 

Your game will be an escape style game and contain the following elements:

A 5 point life system.

Three challenges to complete that will award you one item per challenge.

Each challenge become progressively harder.

A final battle with the Boss to escape your captivity.

Game Play

When users enter the game they are asked to input their username that will be used throughout the game in output messages.

Your user will have an initial life count of 5 lives.

There will be a choice of 4 rooms that the user may choose from.

Rooms 1 through 3 will challenge the user to a number guessing game where the user must correctly guess the random number generated by the computer in three tries. The first room will  have numbers 1,2,3 to guess from. The second room will have 1 through 4, and the third room will have 1 through 5. 

Successful guessing in each of the room will award the user a rock, or  a piece of paper or a pair of scissor. 

Failed attempts at guessing the correct number will result in a life being lost.

After a win or a loss in each room the user will be give the option to leave the room for the lobby where they can select the next room.

The fourth and final room will remain locked until the user has acquired all three items.

In the fourth room the user will face off in a best of 3 match of Rock, Paper, Scissors. The result of this match will determine the users win or loss of the entire game. 

Ask for users name. If user inputs “Cheat” a cheat code must appear

If you choose to do a room that you have already passed, you have the possibility of losing a life and you can not gain another item from that room (since you have already passed it).
