Wellll, sort of. In fact, it's a bit further the other way, if you get me. The 
PCR is a random bunch of useful and interesting classes and functions, which 
is great. But you coudn't exactly build a game out of them - rather they are 
useful if you want to, say, make a text-based progress bar, and you want some 
pre-written code to do it.

The Gamelets section is a useful bunch of games, with their own zany and fun 
rulesets, graphics and other specific functions written in, which is also 
great. But they're not all that great for adapting. I'd love to see a few 
"vanilla" games, like a generic boardgame, with classes & functions for 
displaying the board, pieces, moving pieces around, and handling scores, and 
so on.

It'd be good to shove those into one big resource with the PCR code samples. 
Is that clearer?
