Fact or Fiction

Simple discord bot that plays a simple game:

1. Provides a random prompt, e.g. "Best name for a rap album"
2. Provides two random cards (sourced from Scryfall)
3. Chat votes on which one they like more with reactions 1️⃣ or 2️⃣

This game is a fun, casual alternative to arguing over how to roll a die. Perfect for cube!

Tech Used

• Node - simple runtime
• discord.js - simple library to make a Discord bot
• Scryfall API - to get random cards and images
  • Scryfall has NOT endorsed me, my work, or this product.
• Fly.io - cheap deployment alternative to Heroku

Change log

DONE

• Display random cards from Scryfall
• Add reactions
• Setup hosting
• Gather list of prompts
• Remove "play" from the command, just !fof
• No basic lands and no non-cards (like Vanguard)
• Use "you" and "your opponent" instead of 1 & 2

TODO

• More prompts!
• Allow prompts to be filtering by card type, like "Only spells" or "Only creatures"
• Use shuffle prompts instead of random (so they don't get repeated as often)

MAYBE

• Allow prompt ideas to be sent to the bot
