Preface
This is not the first collection of computer games and
simula-tions nor will i t by any means be the last.
However, in many
ways i t is unique.
It is the first collection of games all
in BASIC,
I t is also the only collection that contains both
a complete listing and a sample run of each game along with a
descriptive write-up.
Educational Value of Games
Educators have widely different opinions as to the educational
value of games.
There tends to be agreement that games are
highly motivational and frequently very addictive.
Most
educators agree that games generally foster learning by
dis-covery--i.e., the player .doesn't sit down at the terminal with
the purpose of learning a principle of logic but after playing
BAGLES three or four times he most assuredly has learned
some-thing about logic.
Newton's second law is probably the furthest
thing from the mind of a person sitting down to Play ROCKET.
However, when the player finally lands his LEM successfully on
the moon, the chances are very good that he has discovered
something about gravity varying inversely with the mass of the
LEM and the distance from the moon.
The main objection to games as a learning tool seems to be the
fact that i t ' s largely unguided learning and potentially
waste-ful of computer time.
Art Leuhrmann of Dartmouth joked that
some computer center directors might be willing to pay to not
have the book sold on campus because of the computer time that
would be burned up by playing the games; however, the educational
value of games can be enormous - not only in their playing but
in their creation.
The majority of games submitted tend to simulate a sport, card
or board game, a game of chance or something which already exists.
only a few games begin to use the logical and computational
capabilities of the computer to come up with something new and
truly un ique •
Some tha t do are STARES, BULCOW,. ROCKET ,and
LIFE-2.
Certain games are, of. course, more popular with game authors .that
others~
There were no less than ten versions of NIM submitted,
nine versions each of HORSES (HorSe Race) and TICTAC (Tic-Tac-Toe),
and eight versions of CRAPS.
Other popular ones were simulations
of baseball, basketball, football, blackjack, and hangman.
Families of Games
A word about the title of the book.
The astute,
quantitatively-oriented reader might notice that there seem to be
mor~
than
101 games in the book.
In fact, there are 108 individual games;
7 are different versions of another game.
There are 101 separate
write-ups; thus, the title of the book.
Perhaps i t is a disease of using the computer or perhaps it is
just a compulsion of man that he must categorize things.
The
games in this book could be categorized by level of difficulty
as is often the case in collections of puzzles.
They could
also be categorized in an educational sense, for example, those
that could be used to teach logic principles, those that foster
learing by discovery, those that require the user to solve an
algebra problem, etcc
In the first two groups, Number or Letter Guessing and Piles of
Objects, you will probably get more enjoyment if you play the
games in the numbered order as there is a definite sequential
nature to their difficulty.
In the other fourteen categories,
the games may be played in any order; one does not generally
build upon another except in a few cases.
In particular, you
should
play~
BAGLES before BULCOW
HI-Q
before lCHECK
BATTLE before SALVO
GUNNER before SUNERI
ROCKET before ROCKT2
HMRABI before KING
Equipment to Play, computer and Otherwise
Most of the games in this book require no special knowledge, tools
or equipment to play, except, of course, a BASIC-speaking computer.
Four of the matrix games will probably be more enjoyable if you
use a grid or quadrille paper to play.
Unless you have a
photo-graphic memory, QUBIC almost certainly requires a diagram.
There
is a page included as Appendix B which contains some supplemental
diagrams; you may wish to reproduce it if you become addicted to
the games on
it.
with few exceptions, the games all run in "standard" BASIC.
Any
exceptions are noted in the write-ups under the heading, "computer
Limitations."
The major difference between various computer systems
appears to be in the handling of alphabetic strings.
On Digital
systems a subscripted string variable. for example, A$(8) or Cl$(15),
refers to a variable in an array or matrix.
Other BASIC compilers
may not have string arrays.
On some systems, in particular, Digital's Edusystems 20, 25, and 50,
strings are limited to 6 characters.
Several strings may, or course,
be combined in an array to permit longer than 6-letter words to be
used.
Many programs use the RANDOMIZE command to start the random number
generator at a random point.
Some BASIC compilers do not recognize
RANDOMIZE and i t must be removed in order for the program to run.
Digital BASIC permits more than one statement on each program line.
Statement separators on the line may be one of three characters

ACEYDU
ACEY DUCEY CARD GAME
Description
This is a simulation of the Acey Ducey card game.
In the
game, the dealer (the computer) deals two cards face up.
You have an option to bet or not to bet depending on whether
or not you feel the next card dealt will have a value between
the first two.
Your initial money
(Q)
is set to $100; you may alter Statement
170 if you want to start with more or less than $100.
The
game keeps going on until you lose all your money or interrupt
the program.

DRAW A MAZE
Description
This program will print out a different maze every time i t
is run and guarantees only one path through.
You can choose
the dimensions of the maze--i.e. the number of squares wide
and Iong-.
computer Limitations
The amount of memory available will determine the maximum
size maze that may be constructed.
An
8K
EduSystem 20
initialized for one user can draw a l3x13 maze.
RSTS/E
can draw a 23 (width of paper limit) x 50 maze, even larger
using virtual memory.
Experiment on your system with the maze dimensions in
Statement 110.

ANIMAL
COMPUTER GUESSES YOUR ANIMAL
Description
. Unlike other computer games in which the computer picks a
number or letter and you must guess what it is, in this
game you think of an animal and the computer asks you
questions and tries to guess the name of your animal.
If
the computer, guesses incorrectly, it will ask you for a
question that differentiates the animal it guessed from the
one you were thinking of.
In this way the computer IIlearnsll
new animals.
Questions to differentiate new animals should
be input without a question mark.
IMPORTANT:
At the end of a playing session, to the question,
IIARE YOU THINKING OF AN ANIMAL, II you must respond IISAVE II
in order that the computer save all the new animals you have
introduced.
To that same question, at any point in the game,
if you respond IILIST,II the computer will tell you all the
animals it knows so far.
The program starts originally by knowing only "FISH II and
IIBIRD.II
Additional animals are stored in the file IIANIMAL.GME. II
Computer Limitations
This program was written for a DIGITAL RSTS-ll and uses several
unique features, in particular, multiple user access to a
common data file and several advanced string handling functions.
It has been converted with some minor changes to OS/8 BASIC
and could be adapted to other systems as well.

Your
HOME
AWARI game is played with seven sticks and thirty-six stones
(beans) laid out as shown above.
The board is divided into six
compartments (PITS) on 'my SIDE' and six on 'your SIDE'.
In
addition, there are two special PITS at the ends: 'my HOME'
and 'your HOME' •
A MOVE is made by taking all of the beans from any (non-empty)
PIT on your own SIDE.
Starting from the PIT to the right of
this one, these beans are 'SOWN' one in each PIT working around
the board anticlockwise.
A TURN consists of one or two MOVEs.
If the last bean of your
MOVE is SOWN in your own HOME you may take a second MOVE.
If the last bean SOWN in a MOVE lands in an empty PIT, provided
that the opposite PIT is not empty, all the beans in the opposite
PIT, together with the last bean SOWN are 'captured' and moved
to the player's HOME.
When either side is empty, the game is finished.
The player
with most beans in his HOME has won.
In the computer version, the board is printed as 14 numbers
representing the 14 PITS.

The PITS on your (lower) SIDE are numbered 1-6 from left to
right.
The PITS on my (the computer's) SIDE are numbered from
my left (your right).
To make a MOVE you type in the number of a PIT.
If the last bean
lands in your HOME, the computer types 'AGAIN?' and you then type
in your second move.
The computer's MOVE is typed, followed by a diagram of the board
in its new state.
The computer always offers you the first move.
This is considered to be a slight advantage.
There is a learning mechanism in the program that causes the
play of the computer to improve as i t plays more games.
computer Limitations
This program is written in DIGITAL PDP-II BASIC.
The only
unusual feature is that an IF statement may have the form:
IF (CONDITION) THEN (STATEMENT)
Whenever the IF condition fails, the program branches to the
next line.

BAGLES
NUMBER LOGIC GAME
Description
The computer picks a 3-digit secret number and you attempt
to guess what i t is.
You are allowed up to twenty guesses.
No digit is repeated.
After each guess the computer will
give you clues about your guess as follows:
PICO
FERMI
BAGLES
One digit is correct, but in the wrong place
One digit is in the correct place
No digit is correct
You will learn to draw inferences from the clues and, with
practice, you'll learn to improve your score.
There are
several good strategies for playing BAGLES.
After you have
found a good strategy, see if you can improve it.
Or try
a different strategy altogether and see if it is any better.

BANNER
PRINTS A LARGE BANNER
Description
This program creates a large banner on a terminal of any
message you input (up to 54 characters in length).
The
letters may be any dimension you wish although the letter
height plus distance from left-hand side should not exceed
6 inches.
Also, the letter height should be somewhat more
than the width.
Adhering to these rules will generally produce
a very attractive banner.
computer Limitations
BANNER was written for a DIGITAL EduSystem 50.
For other
computers, the character string line input (LINPUT) statement
at Line 240 would have to be changed.
