Using socket.io and node to handle different games with different boards and rules

1

Socket.io

Here's the snag I'm hitting. I need the users to have their game boards update on the client side. However, since these are different games, while it would work OK, it wouldn't make very much sense, in the long run, for me to have a function that just checks what game it is, and then updates the board accordingly. That function would get really long. I also tried to have the function in the game controller, but I can't pass a function through socket.io (I tried, and it didn't go through).

I could have a single page (http://example.com) and load/unload javascript files depending on which game was selected (seems unsafe, and I'm not sure if I can even "unload" a javascript file).
