Choice Scoring (High Level)

Decision Craft uses a score-based outcome system behind the scenes. The score is never shown in the story text, but it decides how cleanly your action succeeds.

Core idea:

• Choices always happen, but the quality of the outcome changes.
• Low scores mean setbacks or complications.
• High scores mean clean success or extra advantage.

Difficulty & Dice Range

A hidden roll (0-100) is generated based on the room difficulty:

• Godmode: 90-100
• Easy: 60-100
• Medium: 30-100
• Hard: 0-100
• Impossible: 0-15

Attributes Matter

Each choice is tied to a character attribute. The attribute is added to the roll and capped at 100. If the final score meets or exceeds the choice threshold, the action counts as a success.

Outcome Quality Scale (Narrative)

The AI translates scores into narrative outcomes:

• Very low: You still act, but with a setback or cost.
• Mid: You succeed with trade-offs.
• High: You succeed cleanly with momentum or extra benefits.

Custom Choices

Custom choices are analyzed by the AI to determine:

• Which attribute they use.
• How difficult they are.

If a custom choice is invalid, the game can reject it with a reason and ask for a different action.

How Scene Images Are Chosen

For each round, the AI creates image prompts tied to the selected actions. Each prompt is rated by interest (1-5). The system then picks the most interesting prompt to generate the round image.

Priority order:

• Highest interest rating
• Original order as a tie-breaker

The goal is to show the most interesting visual moment from the actions players chose.
