Ah sure!! so if someone gave me the words measurement (n), advertise (v), vague (adj), i could come up with some sort of setting for the doors inspired by that. Like in that case, i could write the following nonsense lol:

"You stand before an enormous billboard. In cartoonish letters surrounded by smiley face emojis, the words "Choose now or you may face some sort of consequences! If you succeed, you'll win a gift card for some ~luxury brand product~!"

You want to turn around and leave the sketchy advertisement behind, but whenever you try to turn away it appears in front of you once more, blocking your path.
"Fine," you sigh, ready to accept the vague terms offered by the maybe-haunted, click-baited billboard.

"Yay~!" reads the billboard.
Below it, three doors appear. One stands two feet tall and two feet wide. The second is huge, a full three meters tall and two meters wide. The third is thin but even taller, standing four meters high and just 20 inches wide. You know the dimensions exactly because for some reason the measurements are marked in large font on each door.

What do you choose?"

Oooooh, I get it now! Lol I'm a little slow so that was helpful :joy: but yeah, that sounds like fun! Let's do it!

No not slow at all!! I shouldve given an example to start haha
Cool Im gonna pass this off to you @fearthedeer724 with my sunday writing desk words:
point (v), tangerine (n), lavender (adj)

(the point verb comes from my new little wooden drawing models that i finally got haha)

Okay, I think I've got a good one! Hopefully, this follows the prompt :joy:


Point – You find an ancient map with an X marking a point deep in the forest. You follow the map, but will you find the treasure safely or die trying?

Lavender – You stumble upon a field of glowing lavender under the warm sunlight. Do you pick some and start a herbalist business, or simply enjoy the beauty before you for what it is?

Tangerine – A stranger hands you a tangerine with an urgent whisper: "Eat this when the sun sets." Do you eat it at sunset or demand answers from the stranger?

I am eating the tangerine at sunset!

Well that was fast :joy: @vieveda, congratulations! I'll do 5 likes and comments on your work!

Now...

Once you take a piece into your mouth and chew, you find yourself in a foreign space, floating in a sea of shimmering colors. In front of you, a goddess appears and promises you an answer to any one question you're curious about. long story short, you are the only human in the world that knows the true meaning of life :nerd:

Now that you are the new Game Master, please make the next three options by at least this time tomorrow @vieveda! If you're confused on how this works, please refer to the first post :gift_heart:

Though, if you want to do the new version of the game raspberry590 came up with, here are my three words.

(N) Lantern

(Adj) Brittle

(V) Whisper

The palace lanterns were lit as the glittering stars found their positions in the heavens; twinkling so brightly as if to outshine the flames of men. "Stop staring at the sky!" called the little maid to her friend. "Come and take a look at this instead!"

The friend crept over to where the little maid had poked three holes into the brittle window paper. "Which delight of the palace do you want to see tonight?" she whispered.

  1. The first hole is as high as the maid's knee and looks into the concubine's chamber.

  2. The second hole is just right to peek into the kitchen.

  3. For the third hole a chair is required should you wish to see into the Prince's study.

You did that so much better than I did...

I didn't follow the example at all :confounded: I thought I had it but I just did my own thing :persevere:

I liked yours very much, so much so that I happily ate the tangerine :tangerine:

oh but I liked yours too!! having one word inspire each door was very conceptual and cool! my favorite thing about this kinda thing is seeing how people reinterpret things as we go back and forth

gonna go eat another tangerine now because all the tangerine talk has me craving more haha, I'll give it a bit of time before I pick a door @vieveda in case other players want to jump in since I just went! I really like the setting you made!

1 and 2 are still available... anyone else want to play..?

Option number two is still up for grabs before the winner is announced! Any takers..?

@raspberry590 knelt down and peered into the evil concubine's chamber... a rustle of silks and the concubine's heavy skirts were hitched; revealing the poisoned dagger she'd prepared for the king! "You there!" she cried, alerted to the gasp of the shocked onlooker and holding her dagger in hand; "No witnesses..!"

[Sorry - unlucky this time! :dagger:️]

@Aqua_Fantasy was carried towards the scent of fresh baking from the kitchen. Inside, the palace cooks were preparing a feast, and a large golden pie was left cooling on the side. Opening the hole in the window paper just a little wider, it was easy enough to sneak a piece of the delicious pastry before anyone could notice!

[No win this time - but pie! 🥧]

@BellaTheCow brought over a chair to get their birds-eye-view of the Prince's study. Inside, his highness seemed to be diligently pouring over an old tome. It was only when the gentle snores grew louder that the truth could be discerned! As they leaned a little closer, the brittle window paper ripped, and the curious observer was sent hurtling through the tear! His highness woke quickly, catching the newcomer in his arms. "Are you alright?" asked the Prince; the concern in his eyes tinged with a new-found affection for the vision before him, "How can I be of assistance..?"

[Congratulations! The Prince is under your thrall and you may do with him what you will. Love, money, or even the discovery that his highness is secretly a Princess! The kingdom and its secrets will soon be within your grasp! 🫅]

Thanks for playing everyone! Don't forget to keep an eye out for the next round.


@BellaTheCow I shall stop by to bestow your likes and comments soon! Since you are the next Game Master I will give you three words to act as a prompt (should you wish to use them)
(n) vessel
(adj) eager
(v) pretend

A dagger!! :scream: oh dear. I can only hope she failed to hide what she did to me and was caught before she hurt anyone else!!

love the narrative you built haha

Wow thanks! @vieveda it sounds like the prince is an amazing friend :slight_smile: And great word suggestions! Ok so for the next doors, based off of these words……

Door 1: you open it and find a decorative vase has been set down on an oak wood table in the middle of a desk room.

Door 2: this door is emerald green with a golden handle and frame. A sign on the front states that “all your desires are within”.

Door three: you open it and are put in front of a building. A fun party seems to be happening, but you haven’t been invited. Do you pretend to be one of the guests and sneak in?

The choice is yours……
