Show HN: Card game where players write their own cards that get parsed into code
Also, while not related to Wordbots, Alex has a cool JS sandbox-escape-y game https://alexnisnevich.github.io/untrusted/ (https://github.com/AlexNisnevich/untrusted#license CC-BY-NC-SA 3.0) that I thought was fun and you might, too

The Modern JavaScript Tutorial
I'm currently working on a game[0] similar to Untrusted[1] and I had to use bind (among other techniques like parameter shadowing) in order to "sandbox" player provided code from interfering with other game objects or accessing the global scope. Bind is useful because you can control the meaning of "this" when evaluating user-provided code.

A Dark Room - https://github.com/doublespeakgames/adarkroom
I actually added a JS audio engine to play sound effects, ambience, etc. and it made it into the official browser version of the game.

Newbie to programming, was checking out the github repo for A Dark Room and have a question with likely a painfully obvious answer.
Looking at the files, one of the first files is a browserwarning.html. My question is: in what section of the game's coding is the browser even checked and that page spun out as a result? My suspicion is that it's a Javascript function, but skimming through the scripts I don't see anything that looks like a browser check.
