fishtool

fishtool is a project for exploring two things:

1. Building a simple cli to play a card game
2. Examining the strategies for games like go fish with weak reward signal

Goals

• The game is implemented in such a way as to make it easy to capture events that occur during game play.
• Having a uniform way to capture game events so that the RL algorithms implemented can be trained on any game which is implemented with the engine.

Setup

Clone the repository and install the dependencies using poetry:

poetry install

Below are scripts run using =poetry='s =run= command.

Testing

poetry run test

Playing Go Fish on the command line

Play a game

To run a game of GoFish between you and 3 computer players with purely random policies use:

poetry run play

Automatic play with random policy

To run a game of GoFish between four players all using random policies use:

poetry run play_random
