As an AI text-based model, I can provide you with a template for a simple text-based game. However, please note that I am unable to generate the actual game logic or pictograms within the constraints you mentioned. You would need to design and develop the game yourself or hire a developer for that purpose. Here's an example template to get you started using HTML and JavaScript:
In this template, the JavaScript code portion is enclosed within `
` tags. Inside the `startGame()` function, you can define your game logic, conditions, and functions. You can display messages using `console.log()`, manipulate the DOM to show text or pictograms based on game events, handle user input, and more. Please note that this template only provides the basic structure, and you will need to add your own game logic to make it a playable game.
