"Welcome to the Grit Zone! Pick a game — let's practice grit together."

Gritty the Goat, backpack on, standing at a trail sign where a winding path climbs to a flag on the mountaintop.

Psst: the ⭐ shows the grit choice! /* Without JS the games unfold as honest sections: tabs and the trail map (both JS machines) step aside, every scenario shows with its star marked, and the panels all appear. */ .gz-tabs { display: none; } .gz-panel[hidden] { display: block; } [data-quiz] .scenario { display: grid !important; } .scenario[data-answer='a'] .choice[data-key='a']::after, .scenario[data-answer='b'] .choice[data-key='b']::after, .scenario[data-answer='c'] .choice[data-key='c']::after { content: ' ⭐'; } .scenario [data-cheer][hidden] { display: grid; } .scenario [data-ask] { display: none; } .scenario [data-ask-said][hidden] { display: block; } .scenario [data-flee] { display: none; } /* the layer only exists when JS can raise it; without JS the challenges lie down on the page as plain sections */ .gz-dialog { display: block; position: static; inset: auto; width: auto; height: auto; background: none; overflow: visible; } .gz-dialog-in { display: block; padding: 0; }
