# `game`

Live objects live on [`player` and `world`](world.md). `game` answers what stays put.

| Function | Returns |
|----------|---------|
| `game.item(id)` | [Item handle](item.md) for that id's default stack |
| `game.items()` | Array of every vanilla item id (`minecraft:` namespace, no air), in registry order |
| `game.translate(key, ...)` | The key translated through the client language; extra args fill `%s` slots |
| `game.has_translation(key)` | Whether the client language knows the key |
| `game.language()` | Language code, e.g. `"en_us"` |

```lua
print(game.translate("block.minecraft.stone"))   -- "Stone", or the localized name

local apple = game.item("minecraft:golden_apple")
print(apple:name(), apple:food().nutrition)

for _, id in ipairs(game.items()) do
    print(id, game.item(id):max_count())
end
```
