The underlying goal is to reach the "finish line" of the whole story, which is designated with the words "The End!" under the main text.

			=== Ratings ===
			Adventures can be rated on a scale from one to five stars by clicking one of the options at the bottom of the adventure. This has the advantage of possibly making the adventure appear in the "Top 40" list. It is even possible for the player to rate the same adventure multiple times (if one really ''loves'' a certain adventure), up to once per day.

			The process to creating an adventure of one's own is fairly straightforward. The player first chooses a title, a location (the only effect this seems to have is on the default color scheme provided), a category, a color scheme for each element on the page, and whether or not to show page numbers.

			Pages are listed in a "master list", which conveniently gives both brief snippets of each page's contents, the page numbers that the page links to, whether or not a page is a Dead End/Finish Line, or whether or not the page has an image or not. The player can click the "edit" button on an entry to edit that page's contents.

			For an adventure to show up on the list of adventures for other users to play, an adventure must first be "locked". If the player then wishes to edit the adventure again, then he or she can then unlock and relock their adventure at will.
