The source code that you have is what is used to construct the game. It represents the logic of the game in a way that humans can understand and modify, but that computers cannot run directly. In order to produce a game that you can actually interact with, the source code must be "compiled", which means using specialized software to convert it into a format that computers can run. Unfortunately compiling is fairly complicated. If you don't have an interest in computer programming, I strongly advise you to just download one of the PosChengband forks like FrogComposband that has already been compiled.
