# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
"""
The Goal: Remember Adventure? Well, we’re going to build a more basic version of that.
A complete text game, the program will let users move through rooms based on user input
and get descriptions of each room. To create this, you’ll need to establish the directions
in which the user can move, a way to track how far the user has moved (and therefore which
room he/she is in), and to print out a description. You’ll also need to set limits for how
far the user can move. In other words, create “walls” around the rooms that tell the user,
“You can’t move further in this direction.”
Concepts to keep in mind:
* Strings
* Variables
* Input/Output
* If/Else Statements
* Print
* List
* Integers
The tricky parts here will involve setting up the directions and keeping track of
just how far the user has “walked” in the game. I suggest sticking to just a few
basic descriptions or rooms, perhaps 6 at most. This project also continues to build
on using userinputted data. It can be a relatively basic game, but if you want to build
this into a vast, complex word, the coding will get substantially harder, especially if
you want your user to start interacting with actual objects within the game. That complexity
could be great, if you’d like to make this into a longterm project. *Hint hint.
