I am designing a public information distribution tool that provides neighborhood-specific recommendations for adventurous tourists and hometown explorer. Through a slot machine mechanism, it randomly generates three pieces of information: food, event, and fun fact based on the location. The user then has the option to purchase a foldable viewer postcard that leads them to explore more about the “fun fact” they just learned.
