InterStellar Software presents MacCribbage version 1.0.1. In this game itﾕs you against the Mac in head-to head Cribbage action! Here are some of the many features that we hope make MacCribbage the best Cribbage game for the Macintosh.
･ The ability to save whole series of games in progress. This allows you to see how you stack up against the Mac in a 100 game challenge.
･ Choice of 4 different Cribbage boards: Traditional, N, Spiral, and Snake.
･ Choice of either Automatic Pegging or Manual Pegging (to get the true flavor of Cribbage).
･ Optional Muggins where if you forget to peg some of your score the Mac will gladly take them (suffice to say the Mac will always remember all of its points)!
･ Optional male or female voice for the Mac to call the number of pips played or call GO!
･ User defined Game Length and Lurch threshold options.
･ Complete statistics for the game in progress and the entire Match. Stats include: Total points in both the Play and the Show phases of a hand, points per hand, and total Muggins points for the Mac.
･ Full color and b/w monitor support.
･ Pegging Help: a must use feature for those first learning the game. Whenever there is scoring for you to peg, the pegging help icon will appear. By clicking and holding on the icon a small window will appear describing the breakdown of points that you can peg and why. This will be handy not only for newcomers to Cribbage but for everyone who will wonder why the Mac just Mugged them!
･ Complete instructions for playing MacCribbage.
