On the DE1, being an off-the-shelf generic evaluation board, you need to
re-program the board. And switch SD cards no doubt.

Purpose-built FPGA boards such as Replay and Mist, with their external ARM
processors, generally are able to switch configurations much more easily
(switch, menu etc).

I do believe I've played Donut Dilemma on my DE1 before! ;)
