 - Monkey Spank clones its required submodules recursively and stops installation if cloning fails.
 - Shared downloads try `curl` first, fall back to `wget` when available, validate archive payloads before install, and reject obvious HTML error pages for unknown file types.
 - `download_named()` shares the same cache validation path as `download()`, so resolved asset URLs must still produce a valid payload for their file extension.
+- Wickets resolves the latest stable GitHub release on each install/update, extracts its Linux x64 tarball into staging, and overlays `${installPath}/Wickets` while preserving `saves`. A `.lgm-version` marker records the release installed by the manager.
 - If `.launch/<game>.game` exists and `.launch/<game>.sh` does not, the manager creates a symlink using the repository root, even if the installer changed directories.

+- Wickets requires an existing installation, refreshes release metadata even with cached archives, and exits after an up-to-date notice if `.lgm-version` matches. Its own in-game updater is also available from 1.2.0 onward.

 - Keep scripts robust when sourced in the manager shell.
 - Clone games with required submodules using `git clone --recurse-submodules` and stop installation on clone failure.
 - Launch games that load relative assets from their own directory. Monkey Spank uses `${installPath}/monkeyspank` as its working directory and removal root.
+- Wickets shares install/update logic in `.includes/wickets.sh`; its versioned tarball has one top-level directory, and portable saves must survive updates. Always refresh GitHub release metadata rather than reusing a cached latest-release response.
 - Avoid introducing unnecessary colorized output.
 - For edited bash scripts, run shellcheck and fix all errors.
 - If `shellcheck` is not installed, prompt the user to install it first (see `references/tooling-prereqs.md`).
