CGSuite is a computer algebra system for research in combinatorial game theory. It implements the Conway algebra of partizan combinatorial games and several related systems. CGSuite has a built-in library of well-known rulesets such as Clobber, Toads and Frogs, Kayles, and Wythoff Nim, and it includes a custom-designed scripting language, CGScript, that can be used to create and explore new ones.
A working knowledge of combinatorial game theory is assumed. An introductory CGT text, such as Winning Ways by Berlekamp, Conway, and Guy or Lessons in Play by Albert, Nowakowski, and Wolfe, will provide the necessary background material.
This is free and open source software.
