System is similar to this project: http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/41490716/ This project has similarities with other stories. Another one about being lost in woods: http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/783992/ Some deaths are similar to Minecraft deaths. This also started on paper. Only one way gets you home!
