Last night, Buzzfloyd and I played a board game based on the works of H P Lovecraft. The game was called Arkham Horror, I believe, and mighty Cthulu showed up more than once! It occurs to me that there are a number of great classic games that often get unofficial computer versions produced for playing online. There's also knock-offs and official games that are hosted on major websites. Yahoo! has a version of scrabble called Literati. Games.com has actual bonafide Monopoly. I think we should expand our gameplay group a bit. if any of us can figure out how to play, we might even want to throw together a weekly bridge game. This is just an idea for rigth now, but if anyone would like to make suggestions, please do. More importantly, if anyone has or knows of any good/cool internet friendly versions of funky board games or similar, suggest them!
I'd be up for a bridge game (and any other card game and most other games for that matter). I'm not that good, though. Edit: little mistake that sneaks in and ruins my day (well two minutes of it)
Would there be anyway we could play the Pirate game whilst online Clay. I miss kicking all your ass's at it, especially Rinso's. And even Doors feet couldn't destroy that game.
There is, to my knowledge, no computer version of the Pirates of the Spanish Main card game yet. There are a few games of a similar theme, if not a similar nature. Might be worth checking out. If someone wanted to check the Underdogs website for any interesting looking [b:2ec910395c]freeware[/b:2ec910395c] multiplayer games, I'm sure something could be found.
Yay, found a thread where this would fit. "Casey and Andy"'s creator made this nifty piece of software: Gametable Might be interesting for your Online RP-Group?
Been testing it out, and have had nothing but headaches. the program seems functional, but no one can connect to me when I host. that's probably not a good sign :cry:
really? where? how? what's the rules even? but besides that yahoo has more than just literati...usually I play Go on it but there's lots more: Board games: Game No.of plyrs Backgammon 4,078 Bingo 358 Catan - Checkers 1,735 Chess 11,336 Chessmaster Ch… - Chesster - Chinese Checke… 64 Dominoes 9,273 Dots 100 Emperor's Mah … - Go 294 Jigsaw: Great … - Jigsaw: Landsc… - Jigsaw: Medley - Jigsaw: Pets - Jigsaw: Wyland - JigWords 124 Literati 10,968 Mah Jong 107 Mah Jong Adven… - Mah Jong Garde… - Mahjongg Fortu… - Mah Jong Jade … - Mah Jong Medle… 52 Mah Jong Quest 13 Mah Jong Tower… 177 Midas Mahjong - Naval Command® 127 Reversi 92 Saints and Sin… 70 Super Mah Jong - Word Slinger - Card games: Addiction Soli… 297 Aloha Solitair… 457 Aloha TriPeaks 74 Ancient 4 in 1… - Ancient Hearts… - Ancient Tri-Jo… - Ancient Tripea… - Blackjack 648 Bridge 1,342 Canasta 5,907 Cribbage 1,485 Deuces Wild 247 Double Down 90 Euchre 3,647 Five Card Delu… 6 Freecell Solit… 194 Gin 2,090 Go Fish 94 Golf Solitaire 87 Go Stop 57 Hearts 2,517 Hold 'Em Poker 3,207 Honey Combo - Hotel Solitair… - Klondike Solit… 140 Pinochle 2,365 Poker Supersta… - Pyramid - Pyramids 6,233 Sheepshead 175 Solitaire 13 230 Spades 7,939 Super Solitair… - Super Solitair… - Tornado 21® 215 Turbo Solitair… 117 there's also puzzle games, word games, arcade games and 30 other (?) games...http://games.yahoo.com/games/front hope this doesn't look like a commercial, just trying to be helpful
