# --description--

**Objective:** Build a [CodePen.io](https://codepen.io) app that is functionally similar to this: <https://codepen.io/freeCodeCamp/full/apLXEJ/>.

Fulfill the below [user stories](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_story). Use whichever libraries or APIs you need. Give it your own personal style.

**User Story:** I have health, a level, and a weapon. I can pick up a better weapon. I can pick up health items.

**User Story:** All the items and enemies on the map are arranged at random.

**User Story:** I can move throughout a map, discovering items.

**User Story:** I can move anywhere within the map's boundaries, but I can't move through an enemy until I've beaten it.

**User Story:** Much of the map is hidden. When I take a step, all spaces that are within a certain number of spaces from me are revealed.

**User Story:** When I beat an enemy, the enemy goes away and I get XP, which eventually increases my level.

**User Story:** When I fight an enemy, we take turns damaging each other until one of us loses. I do damage based off of my level and my weapon. The enemy does damage based off of its level. Damage is somewhat random within a range.

**User Story:** When I find and beat the boss, I win.

**User Story:** The game should be challenging, but theoretically winnable.

When you are finished, include a link to your project on CodePen and click the "I've completed this challenge" button.

You can get feedback on your project by sharing it on the [freeCodeCamp forum](https://forum.freecodecamp.org/c/project-feedback/409).
