Wharton professor Ethan Mollick asked Claude to create a modern version of Rescue Raiders, the 1984 Apple II abandonware game he loved as a kid, with new graphics, goals, and tech trees. Claude iterated back-and-forth with critic and art agents until the result was fun to play. He also linked the original playable version on ClassicReload.com.
