Title: TeleCards
Requires: 386 PC, 4MB RAM, VGA graphics, 3 1/2" HD drive, Windows 3.1, and DOS 3.3 or higher.
We publish lots of solitaire card games for the benefit of cardplaying fans who can't always find an opponent for the sorts of games that require more than one person. And, on occasion, we've published multiplayer games (card and otherwise) that could be played in "solitaire" mode with the computer serving as the opponent. But, sometimes you'd like the challenge of a human opponent (or just don't wish to seem so antisocial as to always prefer playing against a machine instead of a person). What do you do then, if there still isn't anybody in physical proximity who's interested in participating? Why, just load up Telecards, and get your friend (down the street, across the country, or around the world) to do the same. Telecards will let you play a nice, friendly (or vicious, depending on your style) card game with somebody at the other end of a modem. Play Crazy Eights, or one of the other games supported by this program, with a modem-connected friend (or enemy). Or, you can still play these games by yourself with the computer as the opponent, if game partners can't even be found remotely. The choice is up to you.
