I confess it took me a few minutes to get the title.
I was pretty much there right up until the random number generator. My patience with roguelike shenanigans whimsically telling me I can't win because RNG says no is frayed to the nubbin.
This pretty much is the sort of thing I watch Yahtzee for (other than obscene jokes dunking on games I don't like), helping me find those rare gems of weird and clever games and filtering them from the ones that just pretend to be weird/clever.
Hate to tell you, this isn't a "new" concept. There was an indie horror game called Kraven Manor from 2014 that did the building the map first.
It's also attracted comparison to board games, primarily Betrayal at the House on the Hill. Oddly enough the map randomisation and puzzles made me think of MindMaze, from good ol Encarta.
End got me 😆
