Useful Analysis Links
Here are some useful links to tools and information that will get you started with analysing the original games.
The main tools available for static analysis of compiled computer programs are IDA and Ghidra. There are others but they are less developed and useable. The free version of IDA does not provide a decompiler so unless you can acquire a copy of the full version of IDA we recommend Ghidra as the preferred tool. Ghidra requires Java JDK 11 to be installed and due to licensing issues with the Oracle version we recommend you use an alternative such as AdoptOpenJDK.
Can't analyse binaries without binaries to analyse.

ZH Ghidra XML Files
The Ghidra download page also has a short video tutorial to get you up and running with the program, beyond that just doing a search for "Ghidra tutorials" will return links to various tutorials showing how to use the basics to solve simple "crack me" executables and require some reverse engineering to figure out how they work and pass their challenges. If any gold standard guides emerge they will be added to this section.
