摘要：This article presents a software that parses the server-client communication log files (called GameSafe) generated by the experimental economics software z-Tree (Fischbacher, 2007). The program parses the file and writes to a spreadsheet that includes the experimental parameters and a complete timeline of subjects' decisions. It can be used to recover data from an experimental session in case of a computer crash, as well as to reconstruct experimental datasets any point in time during the experiment even if variables are overwritten later.
