Tower of Rapunzel is Free software. It is a web-native single-puzzle text adventure, built entirely of:

• Python 3.7+

• HTML5

• CSS3

It’s a piece of work to demonstrate the use of the Turberfield dialogue library, and to show how that can be integrated into an asynchronous web framework.

Tower of Rapunzel’s core logic is written in Python. The dialogue library provides a neat format to define and schedule the speech of the non-player characters.

Other architectures are possible. Authors less focused on coding may prefer to implement game logic within the dialogue itself. This too is supported by the Turberfield dialogue library.

I’m looking for feedback on the game and its underlying technology. Do please:

• Leave a comment on the Itch.io game page

• Flag a technical issue at the Github repository
