Dev builds a wine-making learning game with Claude Fable 5.2 — 'make a game to learn'
kieranklaassen · x · 2026-11-10
Developer Kieran Klaassen used Claude Fable 5.2 to build First Crush, a game that teaches him wine-making: scrubbing the vat, crushing 250 kilos of fruit, reading sugar with a hydrometer, weighing 15 grams of sulfite and choosing a yeast — with the game explaining why at each step.
His takeaways: the story is surprisingly nerdy and never boring, animations still need work, and the model appears to have playtested itself for hours.
His suggested method: pick something you love, build a game about it, and learn by playing.
