The Fountain of Youth is a text-based adventure game where you can create your own explorer, representing one of the following Age of Exploration nations: the Netherlands, England, France, Portugal, or Spain, to represent in this game in order to find a rumored place located in the New World called the Fountain of Youth. Legend has it that the Fountain of Youth gives youth to anyone who drinks water from it and has some valuable treasure. Along the way, you, the explorer, have to explore different parts of the New World to get five different pieces that help you form this map, which leads you to the Fountain of Youth. But be warned: There will be challenges along the way to finding the Fountain of Youth for you as the explorer. The reason why I selected this project to be featured in my Go program for my languages collection was because this was my final project for my first college programming course, called Programming and Algorithms I (CSCI-21).
