I don’t understand the game.

I tapped the screen maybe 30 times and went through it typing to itself and failing and succeeding at different tasks.

If I kept going would I eventually get to type something?

Who told you it's a game?

This one gets it

The URL starting with "play" (with "Edgar" being the next word, and the title that greets you) gives people the impression that it's going to be them playing a game called Edgar. Yes, technically, "play" could refer to the text animation running, but it's very easy to see how people might have expected a game where you try to convince an AI that the swarm can be made successfully.
