with this presumed friendship now established, you decide now is the time to ask the ghost for a favor, as it moves almost directly next to you

run away fast to your cot... I mean to the fish pool and fish for fish with your fishing rod

remember that bridge not catching fire? It kinda did. You literally burned your bridges. You check behind you and see the ghost has followed you

Invent a vacuum and suck up the ghost.

on the spot you invent a vacuum so powerful incorporeal creatures could not escape from it. However this vacuum has the same suction as a black hole. You created a black hole. The ghost is dead, but so are you. GG.

Total Score : 43

Taking this death for a moment to do some really boring meta/rules talk.
I didn't define this in the beginning, because I honestly had no idea the response would be so great for this game. thanks all for playing!

Xivii just commented exactly what I was thinking. I'm getting lost, and as actions stack, it becomes harder and more convoluted with regard to where Knite is, and what order the actions are taking place. It's difficult to balance. So moving forward, I'm going to do the first action I see AFTER a picture has been posted/action has been completed. Any further actions 'stacked' will be ignored. This keeps the drawings more possible for me (I do this mainly on my lunch break!) and hopefully more readable/coherent.

I'll also say, I would prefer if you don't take 'two turns'. When I do games like this in real life, we follow board game rules. I'm more lenient on this online, because, well I have no idea who's turn it actually is, and I also don't know how many people could be playing. But part of the fun for me comes from seeing people have different ideas for your character and seeing them collide, rather than seeing just one person play a solo game. That's a preference, I'm not implementing a hard and fast rule on that, just a thought. I love seeing random people just pop in and give an action.

Thanks again!

you walk SOUTH down the stairs. It’s so dark, you can’t even see in front of you!

Darkness is mearly a reaction to the low level of light in this room, focus you brain to the point where you eyes can see though the darkness

oh right. You have a lantern. You take the lantern out filling the are with warm light. Spying a door, you enter. Only to discover A spoopy ghost on the other side!
He doesn’t respond to your beguiling conversation, and but he does move closer to you

Suggestion: Roster and have us take turns like in D&D? Or actually basically what you said but in order maybe

I feel like signing up and taking turns makes it too formal and slows things down too much. I think we just need to talk a bit more about what we want to do and take turns informally, like if you get your action in, wait a day to give someone else a chance etc.

anyways I'm curious why this ghost has a crown and kind of want to see what happens if he does catch up to us.

but assuming it does end us, I'm wondering if maybe the ghost is attracted to the light? so maybe turn off the lantern and see what happens?

I like the grab bag nature of the game. I do like having this current limitation though, it will make it way more cohesive.

so basically I totally agree with kary

in the spirit of what glubbfubb said

embrace our newfound ghost friend with open arms
teamwork makes the dream work, am I right?

you entreat your self assigned friend for aid in your grand adventure of eliminating rodents from your cottage. The ghost extends a bony hand towards you.

you are about to ask for best two out of three, but the ghost wasn’t playing paper, he was extending his arm until it went into your body. You feel a coldness wrap around your heart, and slowly you feel your heart stopping. darkness sets in. You have successfully died.

(pretend the ghost is wearing a crown. i forgot to draw it.)

Run back up the stairs in a hurry

for reasons unknown you scramble back up the stairs to the castle.EXE courtyard
A soldier is blocking the way east
to the north there is a tall tower
to the west is the drawbridge
To the south is the dungeon

We gotta get him to follow us to the guard maybe. But while we're here we may as well attempt to pick the lock with our fishing hook. That's what those things are for right
