How is the process of finding out how to modify a game?
How do you find out the format of the files, the scripts, etc?
And in programming do you have to add some logic to make the game "modifiable"?

That is a very broad question. In some games all you can do is change textures or models. Some games have some kind of scripting system which you can use to add your own content (like Elder Scrolls Construction Set). Some games have a community of absolute madmen who reverse-engineer the game code and add all kinds of crazy shit, like Super Mario Maker 64, various Pokemon romhacks, Zelda randomisers etc. Technically you can reverse-engineer any game and add what you want, but realistically you will be dependent on whatever tools the community has.
