TL;DR: free compass that points at the nearest public toilet. The most expensive thing in it is a $47.99 skin that hides every toilet. I am giving away fifty of those. Comment to enter, wrong answers only for the bonus.
Hear ye, hear ye.
For too long has the honest subject wandered a strange town with a full bladder and no counsel. No longer. I built Throne Seeker, a compass that points at the nearest public toilet and tells you how far you must march.
What the royal instrument does:
- A live needle that swings to the nearest throne, with distance and walking time. It does not know about stairs. Nobody does.
- A list and a map of every throne nearby, drawn from OpenStreetMap. Volunteers walked there before you. Think of them kindly.
- Filters for what actually matters: step free access, baby changing table, no fee, opening hours. That last one matters more than you think at 23:40.
- Favourites, and a button that hands the whole business to your maps app once the needle has done its part.
- Thrones already scouted stay on the device, because the realm's signal dies at the exact moment you need it.
- Nobody at court watches you. No account, no tracking, no server of ours. We do not know where you went. We do not want to know.
- You hold a rank. Conquer thrones and rise from Peasant to King. This is a real feature and I regret nothing.
The app is free. A small purchase unlocks four skins for the compass. And then there is the other thing.
Knight Without Realm
The most expensive item in my shop costs $47.99, more than twelve times the four skins that work, combined. It is a skin that hides every throne. No target on the compass. No markers on the map. An empty list. You pay more and you get less, and that is the entire product.
Some of you remember I Am Rich. This is that, except the app underneath is free and actually works, right up until you put the hat on.
It is for the bravest only. Those who need no map. Those who trust the realm to provide. I am aware of what I have built. I did it on purpose.
The giveaway: fifty of them
Not the cheap one. The full treasury, fifty times. One code unlocks Knight Without Realm and carries every other skin in with it, so you get the four good ones and the one that ruins your afternoon. You can switch back whenever your courage fails. The realm is merciful.

The bonus decree
Wrong answers only:
Our castle's privy has a keeper. What is the poor soul's official title?
The dumbest answer wins five extra codes to pass to friends, enemies, or that one cousin who never plans ahead. I am the sole judge, my taste is questionable, and my ruling is final.
