Thank you! Using those 3 things to run something sounds really interesting. They could certainly take you somewhere. Or you could skip the self-created oracle from Hill Marks and use the one from Lay On Hands. It’s nice being able to mix and match.

Ha, you know it’s too obtuse when it baffles ‘Esoteric Knowledge’! That’s the issue with such minimalist restrictions.
This requires 3 different coins - they need to be uniquely identified, so different value coins for instance. The symbols at the top of the table just refer to these 3 different coins with unique, generic icons. One of your coins would correspond to the first icon, another to the second, and so on.
First step: flip all 3 coins. Find the corresponding shapes in the table and combine them however you see fit to make a room.
Second step: flip all 3 coins. Find the corresponding words in the table and use those to determine what’s in the room.
The process is repeated for each passage, which it defines as an offshoot of 2 or more cells.
I hope that makes a bit more sense!
Thank you for your comment and the kind words!
The app sounds great; making using of the haptic feedback is an inspired idea. I’m not too familiar with the capabilities of the Apple Watch, can you do something like: double tap to add a point to a counter (i.e. harm) and triple tap to get the current value of the counter (via pulses)?
That Marsaglia article sent me down a fascinating rabbit hole.
As long time numbers station obsessive, I love this! Really tidy, concise design.
If you ever decide to expand on it, I’d love more prompts (say, on the flip side of the sheet). It would be cool if you could explicitly choose which result in each roll you use for x and y axis. Gives it that feeling of interpreting what you’re hearing. It also means the player can consciously aim for certain shapes and their corresponding story beats.
Anyway, I enjoyed this and it’s sparked some ideas for me. Thank you!
They're basically the same, just different size and layout for printing. The full version is the original. No plans to add community copies at the moment. If you drop me a message I can send you a download key: https://www.hausofvalley.com/contact
Yep great fun, ha! Send me a message via https://www.hausofvalley.com/contact and I can help you out.
Wow, that's bizarre. Thank you for pointing it out. From doing a bit of reading it seems that Chrome (which I think you're using) is "not compliant with the PDF standards for displaying PDFs". I'm able to replicate the same problem when I try to view it using Chrome and so far I haven't been able to export the PDF in a way to get it to work as expected.
For the time being do you have a different application you can use to view the PDF?
