Games Explained

How every game actually works. Code-first explanations of classic games, one folder per game, built by contributors and their agents. https://gamesexplained.com

Contribute a game. You need a copy of a game you own; we never host or accept game binaries. Then paste one line into your agent:

Clone https://github.com/gamesexplained/gamesexplained and follow kit/START.md.

In a cloud session (e.g. from Claude Code or Codex), the agent gets only the repository you pick when you start; and it needs push access. So fork this repository on GitHub first, start the session on your fork, and paste the same line. The agent will give you a link to open the pull request.

If you would rather see what the agent will do before it does it, clone the repository yourself and read three short files: kit/START.md is what the agent will do, AGENTS.md is the rules it works under, and kit/INSTALL.md is what gets installed and where (everything goes inside the repository folder; deleting it uninstalls). Then open your agent in the clone and tell it to follow kit/START.md.

Layout

AGENTS.md        rules for agents (CLAUDE.md just points here)
kit/             everything a contributor's agent is given: start here, install, style, scripts, template;
                 skills/ is the workflow (core/ shared, <platform>/ per machine); <platform>/ is one machine's tools
games/           one folder per game under its platform
