Yesterday on Mastodon, I had a bit of a brainstorming session.

PsychicParrot made mention of an upcoming game called "Turtle"

The game is a VR game with a turtle in it, and that's about all I could fathom from the picture.
I jokingly suggested the turtle moves "Forward 50", like the old retro Logo/Turtle thing, which then spawned a silly suggestion that in a role-reversal, the game gives the player the commands, and the player in VR has to follow them, and is scored based on how well they carry out the tasks.



... was PsychicParrot's final thing to say on the subject.

As silly and probably impossible as that might be in VR, however, it's left me wondering if I could maybe do something similar in a standard game.
Have a map, maybe, and the instructions would be given to the player, and then they'd have to try to follow the instructions as closely as they can.
The score would be based on how well they follow the instructions, and how close to the treasure they are at the end.

What with this week's game being a T.T. one, the idea of having a Turtle in the game seems an ideal fit.
I'll have to point PsychicParrot to this post, though. Don't want to be pinching ideas!!

I'm not 100% sure if that's a fully fledged game or not.
What are your thoughts on the subject?
Is this a good idea?
