Readme

Three games that might run as CGI script in a web server: Connect Four, Rows&Columns, Mastermind. Additionally there is a CLI-only game: Das verrueckte Labyrinth.

Check running versions at http://www.henning-thielemann.de/VierGewinnt and http://www.henning-thielemann.de/ZeilenSpalten.

You can build an example web server by installing with

cabal install board-games -fbuildExamples

Then start the server with

./dist/build/board-games/board-games

and play the games in your browser at the URL http://localhost:8080/.

Currently the games use German texts. I wanted to use gettext, but this is not thread-safe.
