I think a good start would be to add an interface for stepping backwards/forwards through the game that's already loaded, and then to add a way to paste in a game.

The Isopath game object already has provision for undoing moves, so we'd probably just want to add a "redo" stack and a redo function, and then some undo/redo buttons.

I don't know whether it would be worth trying to support arbitrary trees of variations, or just a "main line" and a single other variation, or just basic undo/redo of the main line. I think lichess lets you try out a variation without forgetting what the main line was, but it doesn't keep track of multiple variations at once.
