Big Walk Signal Planner

Big Walk Signal Planner is a free browser tool for groups preparing to play Big Walk. It helps friends agree how to represent a choice with a small set of signals before they need to communicate that choice. The planner is part of Big Walk Guide, an independent English and Chinese fan resource, and opens without an account.
Start with the number of possible answers the group needs to distinguish. Then choose the available signalling channels and the maximum number of repeats. The page produces a gesture table when those settings can represent every answer. For example, four options with two channels and two maximum repeats produce left once, left twice, right once and right twice. These are suggested labels for the group to agree on, rather than commands sent to the game.
A practical use is a short planning session before a co-op puzzle. Decide which person sends the message, what left and right mean, and how the receiver acknowledges it. Read the generated table together, rehearse a few choices, and agree on a pause between messages. The page can create a shareable configuration link so friends can refer to the same settings. Whether to consult the accompanying walkthrough material remains the group's choice.
The tool also explains a yes/no approach. If four signals are insufficient for five options, the page switches to a yes/no ladder and reports at most three rounds. This gives the group a concrete alternative to discuss instead of assuming a larger repeat count will always be comfortable. The underlying capacity calculation is a planning aid; it does not measure human performance.
The planner does not connect to Big Walk, read game state, solve an unseen puzzle, or verify that another player can see a gesture at a particular distance. Groups still need to test their chosen signals in their own situation. The accompanying guide material is AI-assisted and distinguishes source information from its own suggestions. Big Walk Guide is unaffiliated with House House or Panic. The calculator is offered as a small coordination utility, with no subscription or purchase required to use it.
