The full story

A developer gave Claude 3.5 Sonnet the 30-year-old source files of a 1992 multiplayer game, and it updated the code to build and run on modern systems. The story was reported by an AI news site, which doesn't name the game in its summary.

What this is. Real projects where people used Claude to build, fix, port, revive or take apart something, from jailbroken Kindles to rebuilt DOS games, plus the times it went badly wrong. Every build links to where it was shared, and every source is listed here.

How far to trust it. We summarise what people reported and say what each build rests on: a full write-up with code, a short post, or a passing comment. We haven't tested them ourselves. Photos are shown from the original sources with credit. Only modify hardware you own, and back up first.
