DraftBot is a bot developed in Node.js by @BastLast based on a text adventure game. The story takes place in a medieval world, and the player embodies an adventurer who wants to win a competition launched by the king, to win the princess' hand. To achieve this, he must travel and earn points by going through a lot of danger, including thieves, wilderness, and scary children. Every few hours, the player can get a random event by using the report command: they interact with a multiple choice system, using reactions below the report. Each choice has multiple issues, which could hurt the character, heal them, or even give them some stuff. During the journey, they earn money, stuff, and points, and can use them to buy potions, stuff or effects in the shop, fight other players, and ascend the leaderboard.

How to launch the bot

Before creating your own instance, please note that you can add the bot to your server through the link available on the bot's discord If you decide to work on the creation of your own instance of the bot, you are supposed to have a minimum of computer skills. Bot support team will prioritize players of the main instance and will only provide very limited assistance. We will fix bugs you report, but we will not teach you how to code a discord bot.

Only the code available in the "release" tab is considered "stable".
