Text based games are things like rpgs and regular old games :-) My faves are WOTF and BAN!

Re: texed based games?

A Text-Based Game runs on contributers working together. The first post will explain the rules, what the game does, and so on. The contributers/posters read the rules, and play the game.

Here's an example:

Rate the color above you.

The name says it all.  smile  Just rate the color above you, and post a color of your own.
I'll start it off: Orange!

Poster 1: 6/10. Red.
Poster 2: 8/10. Green!
Poster 3: 4/10. It's too empty. Blue!
Poster 4: 10/10! That's my favorite color! Purple.

And so on...

It goes on until the thread doesn't get posted on anymore, and it goes down to the bottom of the list. But don't worry; new games are always being made!

I fall: It's a tragedy. You fall: It's comedy.
Hmph enjoy your fall - I get a lovely spring... without pans of new leaves.
