Would you build your startup, while following prompts from a dungeon master, and perhaps interact with other players, as part of an actual D&D game?

If so, please drop me a message on this form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScsQVowUDsIOYM4OaqR...

I have been brainstorming this for a while and the design of this inspired me to post.

This could work out pretty well. I remember reading somewhere (can't find the article) that Brian Eno works with artists this way as a producer, creating artificial constraints to expand their creativity. Would be interesting to see how this affects the startup process where optionality can be overwhelming.

I think this is a super interesting idea. It feels like the natural progression of this would be a set of UI tools to rest on top of JIRA / Trello, or a new task management platform of its own. Basically, a way to create the "gameplay" automatically in the UI

D&D is role playing, and role playing is interactive learning.

multi user dungeons were used as the basis for the first interactive online learning systems.

so most certainly this idea is a great fit, whether it's online or offline.
