Universal Library vs ChessCam

This game is a simulation of the universal library described in a short story, "The Library of Babel", by Jorge Luis Borges. The story can be found in several published collections and websites. As described, the Library contains all books of a certain size whose text is any possible sequence of lower-case letters and simple punctuation, even if it is nonsense. This simulation is of an interesting corner of the Library, tiny compared to the Borges vision, but large enough to get lost in. The game is an explorable virtual environment with a few treasure-hunt-like activities leading to books with meaningful content. There is a book that players can erase and rewrite to make into their own "personal vindication", and a book with a practically infinite number of pages. Individual books are searchable. You can mark and return easily to any alcove with an interesting book.

ChessCam helps you record, stream, watch, play OTB online, and analyze physical chess games using your phone camera. Set up your phone so the board is visible, scan the position, and start recording moves from a real chessboard. You can share a temporary watch link so another device can follow the game live, then review saved games later with analysis and export options. KEY FEATURES • Camera recognition — turn a physical board into digital moves in real time • Record & save — keep a full move history of your over-the-board games • Live watch links — let friends follow your game live on another device • Play OTB online — connect your physical board to an online opponent • Analysis & review — step through moves with engine analysis • Export — copy PGN or the final FEN for any saved game • Voice announcements — hear each move called out, hands-free Everything runs on your device: camera recognition happens locally, and game data is stored on your phone.
