I feel like we're pushing the envelope with Articulate Storyline 360! Here's one of our standalone games.

Great! Thank you for sharing.
Thanks Nedim, it ended up being more complex than we thought it would be. It's a project where I wanted to see if what I wanted to do was possible and it is.
That was really fun! I can think of lots of uses for it. It looks like it was quite complex to create.
Can you tell me the triggers and variables used to spin the wheel and generate random numbers? (no problem if you don't want to or don't have time.)

Thanks Rhoda! It was a fun challenge to work on.
Due to company confidentiality, I can't go into detail about the triggers and variables. But I can say that one thing that helped tremendously was working on one piece at a time. Sort of working backwards. Start with the spinner and then work backwards from there. Ran into a lot of issues that I hadn't considered, so I would have to re-frame how things would affect each other.
As for the random number, it was a JavaScript random number function. Also used that to have it select random decks of cards and random cards from that specific deck.
My goodness - I could never do that - it's incredible. May I ask how you designed the board layout - just the inter-connected squares?
Thank you for the hints Adam! That really does help me to figure out how to do something similar. Bravo on a great game!
Hi Adam!
This is such a fun build! Thank you for sharing!

Hi Adam!

Happy to share! The newer features definitely help with projects like this.
I checked out the eLearning board game and was seriously impressed, it’s such a creative twist on using Storyline 360. The spinner and card randomization were especially cool, and you can tell a lot of problem solving went into it. It actually gave me Pokémon board game vibes with that fun, unpredictable gameplay.
Thanks! There were a lot of problems I discovered along the way, but it was a fun challenge to be able to come up with ways to fix them. I'll have to check out the Pokémon link you posted.
