How to play an AsciiMason game

To find AsciiMason games to play
Head to the AsciiMason subreddit (which will be created soon) to browse games created by other users. When you see a game you like, download its file. Only download json files (files ending with the extension .json). Json files are text files (the kind you can open in text editors like notepad) which means that when you download json files, there is no risk of harming your computer.

To play an AsciiMason game file

 * 1) Open AsciiMason (click here). This will load in a default game.
 * 2) Click on the game menu button (the controller) in the upper-right corner of the game window.
 * 3) Next to "Load Game", click "browse".
 * 4) Select a json game file on your computer. (the file will end in .json).

If you get stuck in an AsciiMason game

 * 1) To see the controls, click on the game menu button (controller button) in the upper right corner.
 * 2) The game menu will tell you what keys to press to move up, down, left, and right. (WASD keys by default). It will also tell you which key is the action button (E by default). Click "back" in the upper right corner to exit the game menu.
 * 3) You will not be able to move while the dialogue box (at the bottom of the game window) is open. To select options in the dialogue box, click on the gray buttons at the bottom. (You cannot select dialogue options with the arrow keys).
