KCRIBBAGE(6)

💖 KCRIBBAGE 💖

okay bestie, welcome to your new obsession — this is kcribbage, section 6 of the Games Manual, aka the cribbage game that lives in an X window and will absolutely eat your whole afternoon. no cap. 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

kcribbage

that's it. that's the whole invocation. one word, zero flags, slay. 💅

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so like — Kcribbage pops open a window and you play cribbage against the computer. the computer is your opponent. it is not your friend. it is, however, right there in the window with you. 💀

here's the whole vibe of how you actually play it:

• Clicking on a card moves it to the "best" legal play. the quotes around "best" are doing a lot of work there, and yes, that's exactly how the original says it, so don't come for me. 🙈
• Dragging a card places it in the target stack — but only if legal. illegal drag? nothing happens. the card stays home. periodt.
• Using the keyboard is how you answer the questions that show up in the text window. so like, type your answers there, bestie, the text window is where the conversation happens. 🫶

that's the whole game loop. click, drag, type, win (hopefully). iconic behaviour honestly. ⭐

👑 AUTHOR 👑

okay so that's the whole page!! and before you go — the little footer at the bottom of the original says this is Kgames 1.0, dated 1992, and it's page KCRIBBAGE(6). vintage. retro. a classic. go win a game for me, bestie 💖🦋✨
