What Is Game Core?
At the heart of games such as chess, draughts and noughts-and-crosses is a process that searches for the best legal move within a reasonable amount of time.
Game Core provides you with a version of this process that helps you to write simple and highly absorbing board games. Three such games (3D Noughts And Crosses, Reversi, Pentagon) are provided ready-made with Game Core, together with a fourth one (Don't Be Greedy) that is explained in detail as a tutorial model.

The documentation discusses:
- Game trees and strategy
- Speed of program execution
- Coding of boards, moves and pieces
- Variable usage
- Game Core routines
- Game-specific routines
- Writing a new game-playing program
- Suggested products - "Don't Be Greedy"
