Kraken's Cove

Quests here — tap one to open it

1. ☆ Kraken's Cove: race — first task wins, losers cancelled async

   Student can use race{} to run competing tasks where the first to finish cancels the rest — the timeout pattern.

   🏗️ Builds: Storm-vs-finish-line: race{AwaitAllFinished(), StormTimer()} ends the race either way (FAILS compile 1 err — rewrite first; central to zone theme)

2. ☆ First Across the Line: rush keeps the losers running async

   Student can choose between race and rush — rush returns the first result but lets remaining tasks continue.

   🏗️ Builds: Winner detection: rush over per-racer finish awaits crowns first place while others keep racing for podium spots

3. ☆ The Timing Toolbox: spawn/sync/race/loop together async

   Student can combine all four concurrency primitives into one game-timing structure and pick the right tool per job.

   🏗️ Builds: The full race-loop skeleton: loop rounds, sync starts, race timeouts, spawn monitors (FAILS compile 5 err — the zone's worst-broken load-bearing article; intermediate sibling verse-concurrency-async-race-state-machines PASSES as backup)

4. ☆ CAPSTONE — Coastal Race: ship it devices

   Student assembles all 22 lessons into a complete playable boat-race mode with lobby, synced start, checkpoints, storm timeout, eliminations, kraken NPC, podium, and persistent win tracking.

   🏗️ Builds: The whole minigame (multi-step project article + data/learning-paths/path-west-coves.json record; also fix vehicle-spawner-boat-device FAIL 1 err — the boats! — and lean on race-checkpoint-device + race-manager-device + timer-device, all PASS, as device-track sidebars)
