I have no idea what settings I had the various knobs and dials set to. I'd clicked a bunch of stuff before playing.

Looks like it's going to be a complicated one.

r18731 adds these (and some more I found).

I think missing at present is truth serum item/effect, mid level success effect, and items from leaderboard success - if nothing else is discovered

Apparently the controls reset after each game so it seems by default you'll end up with the rewards I got if you don't change anything (I'd messed with the dials before my first game but I didn't 'lock in' until my last game)

A One day ticket it is

This pretty much confirms there's a puzzle (trophy?) associated with it as there's no monsters to fight so no reason to have a one-day ticket for factoid hunters.

I disagree. There were other items that had puzzles with no one day passes associated to it. And the one day pass for the love tunnel was for actually beating the puzzle.

If any evidence points to a puzzle, it would be the amount of delay for this IotM compared to the KGBriefcase. And even then, I wouldn't assume anything.
 
I mean, the content is one big puzzle in the form of a mini game, the one day passes might simply be so everyone can enjoy that game.

It is a pretty fun game.

What’s the plan vis-á-vis relay overrides? It would be helpful to have indicators saying the effect of each choice (increase military attack, decrease psychological defense, etc.). On the other hand, that can be done by a user script without being built-in.

Yeah, I found that out eventually. I get a lot of satisfaction from unlocking things like that: it makes me feel like I’m winning no matter how poorly I actually do. Sure, I could probably look up the results of each option, but this is way more fun.

I suppose this means there isn’t much KoLmafia needs to do here, huh? Just add a few new items and effects, potentially implement tracking for the castle statistics (I could probably do it once the details are spaded, if no one else does), and that’s about it.

The enemy castle names are obviously indicative of their strengths and weaknesses, but I’m not sure how much you can actually glean from them. Hopefully not too much: if you could reliably choose options that guarantee victory, this would stop being fun rather quickly.

The cheese wheel can be walked away from, after using it but not selecting a cheese. It shouldn't be removed from inventory on 'use' alone.
