# 🐹 Hamster Personalities

## Hamster Personalities

### Personality Types

Hamster personalities fundamentally change how your hamster navigates mazes, creating different strategies and playing styles.

#### Cautious

**Behavior Patterns:**

* Prefers explored paths over unknown territory
* Rarely revisits the same location twice
* Methodically explores all options before committing
* Less likely to get trapped in dead ends

**Best For:**

* Complex mazes with many branching paths
* Players who prefer steady, reliable progress
* Beginners learning the game mechanics

#### Adventurous

**Behavior Patterns:**

* Frequently tries unexplored paths
* Willing to take risks for potential shortcuts
* May make surprising decisions
* Higher variance in performance

**Best For:**

* Mazes with hidden shortcuts
* Players who enjoy unpredictable gameplay
* Potentially faster completion times (with luck)

#### Strategic

**Behavior Patterns:**

* Prioritizes paths toward the exit
* Analyzes maze structure for optimal routes
* Minimizes unnecessary exploration
* Consistent performance across different mazes

**Best For:**

* Competitive players seeking reliable performance
* Time-based challenges and tournaments
* Complex mazes requiring careful planning

#### Random

**Behavior Patterns:**

* Completely unpredictable decision-making
* No consistent strategy or pattern
* Can find unexpected solutions
* Highly variable performance

**Best For:**

* Players who enjoy chaos and surprises
* Experimenting with different maze types
* High risk, high reward playstyle

### Personality Evolution

As your hamster gains experience, their personality traits become more pronounced:

* **Level 5**: Enhanced primary trait
* **Level 10**: Reduced weaknesses
* **Level 15**: Unique special ability
* **Level 20**: Hybrid personality traits

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://hme.gitbook.io/hme/game-features/hamster_personalities.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
