Potato? I’ve recently put together a GitHub repo to collect together a bunch of neat games that you can play. The twist? They were built using R. Yes, R: ‘a FrEe SoFtWaRe EnViRoNmEnT fOr StAtIsTiCaL cOmPuTiNg AnD gRaPhIcS’. I think R is best suited to either text-based user-input games on the R console, or via a more dedicated interface, like Shiny.
