    Can anyone recommend a php game engine for creating simple games? I'm thinking turn based games where you enter info and then click the submit button. Nothing real time or fancy graphics, just simple strategy games etc..

    Why do you need a game engine for something like that? Just use mysql.

    Because a game engine can be reused over again.

    A game engine is traditionally a GUI. You should just write your own classes for a web-based engine and you can use them again yourself. The whole principle behind functions and object oriented programming is to allow for a class or method to be used again.

    You don't need a game engine for a text-based game

    so are classes and objects
