CLI Dungeon Crawler Report

Introduction

This report documents my journey through the CLI Dungeon Crawler, a text-based adventure game designed to teach command line interface skills. The objective was to navigate through a simulated directory system to find a hidden reward while learning basic CLI commands.

Map of the Dungeon

Below is a map of the dungeon structure I discovered:

Root (C:\)
├── EntranceGrounds/
│   ├── FortressLore.txt
│   ├── README.md
│   ├── Gatehouse.info
│   └── OuterWalls/
│       └── InnerKeep/
│           ├── GreatHall.info
│           ├── OldRecords.tome
│           └── Armory/
│               └── Weapon.box and StoneKey.key

Journey Log

Starting Point

I began at the root directory and used dir to see what was available:

Found: EntranceGrounds directory, FortressLore.txt, README.md

EntranceGrounds

Used cd EntranceGrounds to enter the first area.

Used dir to discover:

Found: OuterWalls directory, Gatehouse.info

OuterWalls

Used cd OuterWalls to enter the next area.

Challenges Encountered

Initial confusion with command syntax (tried using [brackets] in actual commands)
Learning to navigate between directories using cd ..
Finding hidden files using dir /a

CLI Commands Learned

dir - Lists files and directories
dir /a - Shows hidden files
cd [directory] - Changes to specified directory
cd .. - Moves up one directory level
type [file] - Displays contents of a text file
findstr [pattern] [file] - Searches for text in files

The Final Reward

After navigating through the dungeon, I really wanted to find the reward but unfortunately i could not be able to do it. but im sure that i can say i learnt many functions and commands...

Conclusion

This CLI Dungeon Crawler adventure taught me valuable skills in command line navigation and file manipulation. I learned how to use basic commands to explore directory structures, read files, search for specific text, and understand file hierarchies.

These skills will be useful for future programming tasks and understanding how computers organize data.
