Tak is a new abstract strategy game, devised by James Earnest (of Cheapass
Games), and Patrick Rothfuss, author of The Wise Man's Fear, where the game of
Tak was first mentioned.
This is a library which encodes the rules of Tak, provides a client for the
popular playtak.com server, and contributes an AI tak bot for the same server.
This package provides 3 top level modules:
Tak encodes the rules of Tak, as a game tree, containing all possible moves.
This tree is extremely large, so be careful not to strictly evaluate it!
PlayTak provides functions for maintaining a connection to playtak.com, receiving
messages, and sending commands. This could be used to implement a
fully-fledged game client, or a playtak.com bot.
PlayTakBot is a framework to make it easy to build a playtak.com bot. It will
maintain a connection, seek games, and create a game tree. The bot implementor
just needs to provide functions to evaluate a game state, and choose the next
play from each game state.
