So I'm back with another CYOA (choose your own adventure). This time it's about pills. Not red or blue pills, but special either way.

It's simple: you get to choose either 2 pills or just 1 pill. If you choose just 1 pill you also get the bonus effect.

The easiest way to cheat is to develop a Twine VN where a pill has all of these abilities and use the game pill to bring that super pill into real life.

Even without that, the game pill is super OP since you can bring a game object once every 7 weeks. Just going off of games I've played before.

  1. You can instantly restore your health through consumables.

  2. You can be underwater without drowning.

  3. You can teleport other people and teleport yourself.

  4. You can charm people.

  5. You can enslave animals using spherical orbs.

  6. You can massively boost your attributes by eating food.

  7. You can use telekinesis.

  8. You can become invisible.

  9. You can instantly put people to sleep or wake them up.

  10. You can see perfectly at night.

  11. You can change your body to match the gender you want.

  12. You can resurrect people from the dead.

  13. You can be resurrected from the dead with your health completely restored.

  14. You can stop time.

  15. You can fly and shoot fireballs.

  16. You can touch fire or lava without being hurt.

  17. You can carry around a near infinite number of items with you.

  18. You can open every locked door.

The pills were poorly thought out lol

I didnt make this but I agree that most CYOA stuff usually has poor internal balance.

they control for the opness with that 'handheld' qualification, many game abilities/mechanics are not bound up into single game objects as such.

but maybe the right game might have a necklace that does some or many of the things your talking abt, idk im not a gamer encyclopedia
