New idea for a game (show) that I would love to make and play.
I believe the idea is based of a challenge from Takeshi's Castle (though I will admit I am only vaguely familiar with that reference.)
The premise is a player must successfully get through a certain number of walls (let's say 10) where each wall has a decreasing number of doors in it. The first wall has 11 doors, then 10, 9, 8, etc. etc. until two on the final wall. The catch is that for each wall, behind one door is a pie waiting to be pushed into their face. The goal is to get through all ten walls completely clean (which should be possible 10% of the time.)
There is potential to make an online-compatible version of this too if anyone is interested. Let me know what you think!
pfn said: Definitely sounds good if an online version could be designed.
My basic idea for an online version involved one party self-pieing and just choosing what door they would walk through. It does take away a lot of the surprise and suspense imo, but that's at least my starting point.
How about a 2 player version where one player is the 'dungeon master' allocating what goes behind each number in each round? They can then 'advise' the player which number to go for so that the player has to decide whether or not they are bluffing. The catch could be that in the earlier rounds there is also a reverse number in where the master gets a penalty instead.
