  1. No worries man there was a bunch of characters when pulling the data to make the game, I completely blanked on. When there's 14 books and thousands of characters its impossible to keep them in your head but this game might be a great way to try to remember a lot of them. I know for a fact when I was reading both during my original and re-read I had this app on my phone called wotCC flutter, which allowed me to lookup characters and get information on them based off what book I was on because it was so hard to keep track(especially the trillion aes sedai members lol). Anyways tho glad your enjoying the game, got more updates coming soon.
  2. Thanks for the welcome!! I'm happy to take a crack at building this Black Tower game if you have some information on how the game works and what data I would need. Also will definitely looks around and join one of the groups. Thank you again for the welcome, looking forward to seeing you around.
  3. What do you mean by events/raising points? Sorry if this is a naive question, new here.
  4. Thank you for the welcome and glad you enjoyed, feel free to check out the older puzzles if you want!
  5. Lmao, thanks for playing dude glade you enjoyed, and thank you for the warm welcome. I'm planning on adding both more difficult and simpler modes in the future so stay tuned.
  6. Thanks for the warm welcome! What I did was add only pov characters as a starting point, which came out to around 150 characters. This meant some key characters were excluded such as Aludra. I want to eventually have multiple levels for each book, so a beginner level would be only pov characters, and then a challenge mode would be every character. Also a mode to only show characters from books 1-6 or 1-9 depending on how far you are at in the series. And yeah your right I have some big ambitions for the game, I want to build our similar style games for most of our favorite popular modern fantasy books, from there I have some idea for some brand new games that are similar in testing one's book knowledge. Effectively I want this to be the one stop site for all fantasy trivia/brain teaser style games. Hence when you go to turnofthewheel.com now it sends you to fantasdle.com which is a new domain i bought for it to be more encompassing. Now obviously, this is pretty ambitious but the game is genuinely fun and I feel this could be a great game that the whole fantasy reading community can interact with. For now, I'm planning on adding one series a week until i get to around 10 or 15 series idk which yet. From there, Ill get into adding the challenge modes/more characters/ quality of life. and then from there maybe some new games. There's a patch notes tab on the site if you want to keep posted on the progress on the site but I might make a discord or reddit if anyone is super interested in helping out. But glad you enjoyed the game man, and if you have any feedback at all don't hesitate to let me know.
  7. TLDR: I'm launching a WoT Wordle like puzzle game at https://turnofthewheel.com Hi everyone, first time poster here in this community. I want to call out that I recently posted this same message a couple of days in other Wot communities on the internet, but I wanted to send it here to increase visibility. Thanks for reading and hope you enjoy the game!! I started reading Wot for the first time as a sophomore in high school after watching the first season of the amazon show. Since then, I've been an avid fan of the books. I completed my first re-read this past January, and I'm still waiting patiently for my leatherbound. What inspired me to make this game was another interest of mine, Pokemon. For the past couple of months, I've been playing this game called pokedle. In this game, you have to guess a pokemon based off identifying information you get based on guessing different pokemon such as type, generation, color, etc. This is a great challenge since there are 1000+ pokemon and its cool way to challenge friends. So I wanted to see if there was something similar for WoT or any of the other series I read. After doing some research I found some already made solutions, the best Wheel of Time one there is https://wheeldle.com/ . This game was great but and uses a similar guessing strategy that I had in my mind but I thought as a cool challenge I could make an even better game. How it works is simple. You type in any character and then as you type in the character, the site will reply to you with information with that character. It will say, "Hey this person was introduced in Book 1, 2, 3, 4." "Hey this person is Tairen or this person is Cairhien" "Hey this person can't use the one power or this person is an Aes Sedai." Then you use that information to try to figure out who the character is. If you get stuck there's a hint system to help you out that can tell you categories you have not found or brief descriptions of the character. There is only one challenge a day but u can go back and replay old games to practice. I also added google o-auth so if you want to track your stats or streaks. I cut down the playable character amount to around 180 core characters so you would not have to remember the name of random characters, but as a challenge mode in the future we could add all the characters. The game is fun, but I have ambitions to grow this into something greater. In the long term, I want to make this into a fantasy wide wordle game. Imagine a game where you need to guess a random character from not just Wot but the character could also be in the Lord of the Rings, The Cosmere, Jade City etc. What better way to challenge your friends book knowledge than testing it across the whole fantasy universe not just Wot. So for anyone reading this I want you to see this as not just a random fan made game but the start of something great that can be played by anyone who loves fantasy. If you made it this far thank you so much for reading this. You can play the game at https://turnofthewheel.com. Please respond to me with any feedback on the game or how we can grow this into something amazing in the future.
