The gap
On a phone the finger hides the piece being dragged, so players drop it in the wrong place.
What it is
A touch drag lifts the piece above the finger and shows a ghost where it will land, with the rows it would complete lit up.
How you use it
Unzip, serve the folder and open index.html, then edit game.js; npm test plays it again in headless Chrome.
Source code of a real, playable game to reskin and learn from, with a smoke test whose bot plays it.
Use it when
Built for
All 27 clearing units live in one table, so the harvest check, the ghost preview, the bot and the goal counters share the same code.
The bot tries every shape, turn and spot, then scores the board left behind by holes, room for big shapes and nearly full units, adding the goal of the garden.
Plain JavaScript and Canvas 2D; open index.html through any static server and edit game.js.
A headless Chrome test loads the game, checks the console, presses keys and taps, and lets the built-in bot play a run to its result screen.
