Idea
The main idea behind TapWizard was to develop a game which should renovate the old concept of a parlor game, namely to meet with friends, play a game and have fun together, by making use of modern technologies. The Smartphone surely is one of these technologies and that’s why it is supposed to be the primarily game controller. It comes with the advantage that almost everyone always carries one and thus makes it possible to for users to make spontaneous game sessions. Eventually the decision felt to implement the famous card game Wizard as a browser based multiplayer game. Browser based because of the fact that one is independent from a single operating system and the game can be available on all major platforms without installation (provided that a web browser is already installed).
Development
If you plan to use the project make sure to run
npm install
in the root folder. And
grunt serve
in order to start the watch task which restarts the server on each change.
