Inspiration

I've always been a big fan of detective stories and have always wanted an "infinite" game where I can experience a endless amount of unique and interesting cases.

What it does

It generates an unsolved case that you must solve. It is based on the "Zebra Puzzle" logic game where you are given all of the information and you then eliminate possibilities until you find the answer.

How we built it

Using html and css for the UI and javascript for all the game logic.

Challenges we ran into

Making the procedural cases was trickier than expected. All cases needed to have the right amount of clues so that anyone can get to the right answer.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

  • I like very much the game ambience with the music and the visuals.
  • Added enough random options so that it's impossible to get 2 exactly same cases.

What we learned

  • I learned to use sound in javascript.
  • Practice procedural generation

What's next for InfiniteMysteries

-Adding more options -Making the cases even more diverse and unique -Changing the case files into a more storytelling style instead of a list of clues.
