Hello everyone! The Treasure Hunt is back!


The previous version of this game was too awkward to use, so this time I made a companion webapp for it! No registration, no download, and it also has a mobile layout! But the progress of the previous game is lost, sorry.

How the game works:
Click on the link on the bottom of this post (I know it looks weird but I promise it's safe), wait a bit for the board to load (takes about a second) and dig up a tile. It works like minesweeper, so if you find a number it shows the adjacent treasures (but you can't lose). You have one chance to dig, then you should return to the forum and post what you found here. If someone else posts then you can try again. You can keep track of your own inventory, or just the score.

In case you find the last treasure, the game automatically generates a new random board, you just have to refresh the page. Please post it if a new game starts, and the player with the highest score wins the round. If the scores feel too unbalanced I can adjust them.

Here's the scoring system:
πŸ’Ž - 10 points
πŸ’° - 3 points
πŸͺ - 1 point

Please refrain from trolling, and even if you find the debug functions I made, don't use them. Thank you!

Special thanks for @Dumb and @effy for testing! Pinging the players of the previous version too: @KIOSHI_17 @PreachElectrick @coffeedrops

Here's the link to the webapp:
https://treasure-hunt-36b7b.web.app/

Happy hunting!

I'm thinking about joining the fun, but it would be a bit unfair if I was the only one who played Minesweeper a lot

Because I already see 3 obvious spots that hides a treasure and wonder why no one tries to dig them

Now I start to feel that the current system is too luck based.

I was thinking about 2 things: giving more than 1 click per round, and/or turning this into a "sandbox game" where you just collect treasure to increase your score, carrying your score across rounds and not caring about who wins.

What do you all think about these?

I tried to balance rarity and value but it looks like statistics work differently. It'd only be correct with an infinite board and many more turns

I don't think that one more click per round would be a good idea, I think it would make more sense to adjust the points that treasures give, otherwise I think it's fine the way it is.
Edit:
For example, I would make the coin bag worth 5, the cookie can stay at 1 (or make it 2) and the diamond worth 10 or 12, because 15 is really a lot, even if it's rare.


tinshard said:

I don't really have an opinion on this; whether I win or lose doesn't really matter to me. I just enjoy searching for treasures and thinking about where treasures might be and where they might not. Whether I keep the points or not doesn't really matter, at least not to me.

I got a πŸ’°
