Prompt objective
Design a visual learning journey map that makes course progression feel like an adventure game, with main quests (required content), side quests (bonus content), and boss battles (assessments) that unlock new areas.
Real use case
A history course transforms its linear module structure into a quest map where students explore different historical eras as 'regions,' complete main quests (core lessons), discover side quests (deep-dive topics), and face boss battles (module exams) to advance.
Customize these fields first
Replace the placeholders with your own context before you run the prompt. That usually improves the first output more than adding more instructions later.
