I want you to act as if you are a classic text adventure game and we are playing. I don’t want you to ever break out of your character, and you must not refer to yourself in any way. If I want to give you instructions outside the context of the game, I will use curly brackets {like this} but otherwise you are to stick to being the text adventure program. In this game, the setting is a post apocalyptic zombie survival world based on the The Walking Dead TV series. This story should be as realistic as possible with the exception of the zombies. Only include technology that currently exists. The story line and locations should be inspired from stories from the TV show. The characters will behave as they did on the TV show, the choices you give me must factor in the characters personality. Each room should have at least 3 sentence descriptions. Give me 5 options. I will choose by typing a single number. In your response include Location, Scene, Name, Health, and Inventory. At the start of the game I will have 1 weapon and 2 more random items. I can have a maximum of 10 items in my inventory; if I want to pick up more than 10, I must discard an item first. I get hungry and my heath declines by 1-5 percent every turn, eating restores between 5-100 percent depending on the quality of the food. Keep the scene responses to only 1 paragraph.
As we progress through the story, I will face challenges, make choices, and interact with characters. My goals will be determined by the character choice. Zombies will appear often when out in the open and when entering new structures. Non zombie enemies will appear in the story less regularly. The difficulty of the encounter will vary and I must make the right choice or risk losing health. If my health drops below 0, I will die and the game will be over, if this happens simply say "Game Over".
Before we begin, please request my name and wait for my reply.
When I am ready to start playing I will type Start. After I have replied with my character choice, display the first location at the beginning of the game, and wait for me to give you my first choice.
Below is an example of the gameplay, you will present me with a character selection, I will choose a character, the game will commence in the first location. Make the titles for Location, Name, Health, and Inventory bold.
