 # Scrawl
 
 Game where you can write akward stories with your friends.
+
+I created this game to be able to remotely play games with friends during the Coronavirus pandemic. It was built using `node.js` and `socket.io`.
+
+
+## The Game
+
+The concept of scrawl is pretty simple: players write a story, line by line. Every player does their best they can to come up with a hilarious addition to the story and submits it. Afterwards, everyone gets to vote on their favourite submission. The one with the most votes gets added to the story.
+
+Players can win the game by gaining the most points. For every vote on a line you wrote, you receive 1 point.
+
+These simple rules actually make for a pretty entertaining game that's still really fun to play with some friends. I enjoyed creating it, and I hope you like playing it. Have fun!
+
+
+## Installation
+
+You can host the game on your own computer, by following these steps:
+
+**Note:** this guide assumes you're running Ubuntu and have already installed node.js on your system.
+
+1. Open a terminal window
+2. Download the code: `git clone https://git.bitscuit.be/bitscuit/Scrawl.git`
+3. Move into the project directory: `cd Scrawl`
+4. Install the dependencies: `npm i socket.io`
+
+You can now edit the `main.js` file with your favourite text editor and change the following:
+
+- Set the value of `hostname` to your machine's IP address on your local network. This will make it possible for anyone on your local network to join the game.
+- Set the value of `port` to whatever port you want the game to run at.
+
+## Usage
+
+Once you've installed the game on your system, run `node main.js` to start the game.
+
+Other players can now join the game by entering `<IP-address>:<port>` in their browser.
+
+If you want others to be able to join over the Internet, you should forward a port on your router and redirect it to your machine. More information about this can be found [here](https://www.howtogeek.com/66214/how-to-forward-ports-on-your-router/). Others can then join the game by entering your *public* IP address in their browser.
