The companion wiki, the searchable Q&A, and where every raw file lives.

This Code Bible has three companions, all built from the same source. Use them the way that fits what you are doing:

The companion player wiki

Where the Bible explains how the game is built, the wiki explains how it plays — the roles, the tour routes, the economy, the scoring. Good background before diving into a subsystem chapter.

Wiki homeOverview and quick facts about the game.
Getting startedThe goal, the flow of a run, a first playthrough.
Characters & crewThe 7 roles, the 6 van-mates, and the build mods.
The tourThe 10 tour years, campaign mode, the Peak, the finale.
Resources & the roadThe 8 stats, a driving leg's costs, shopping and hustles.
Van & gearVan upgrades and their buffs, consumables, creative mode.
Taping, scoring & the HallThe taping mini-game, tape quality, badges, the leaderboard.
Architecture (player-side)A high-level tour of how the game is built.

Elsewhere in this site

  • Function map — the load-bearing functions, each linking into the code.
  • Any code excerpt’s trace ↗ link opens the full source file at that spot.

The raw files on disk

If you want the underlying material outside this site, it lives in the workspace under data/documents/:

  • terrapin-trail-wiki/ — the wiki pages as plain markdown.
  • terrapin-trail-qa/qa.jsonl — the full Q&A database (one record per line, with source citations), plus qa.md to read it and build_qa.mjs to regenerate it.
  • terrapin-trail-import-summary.md — how the game came into this workspace.

The game’s own source and its in-repo docs (README.md, ARCHITECTURE.md, SUBSYSTEMS.md, DATA-CATALOGS.md) are under data/uploads/terrapin-trail-vercel/.
