Simon Willison builds Tree Appreciator, a Three.js game, by prompting Claude on iPhone
Overview
Simon Willison says he built Tree Appreciator, a Three.js spot-the-difference game, by prompting Claude Opus 5.5 Max in the default Claude iPhone app's chat mode, not Claude Code.
The game shows two algorithmically generated trees and asks players to find the differences between them, with music, animation and achievements. Willison says Claude took 3 hours and 7 minutes to produce it. He adds that telling the model "make sure it is fun" worked well for him.
