There’s a good mix between the average candidates for compilations of this type, like Backgammon, Chess, Checkers and Dominoes, and more obscure games such as Parcheesi or Chinese Checkers. Even though they don’t bear their original names, every game is perfectly modeled to the exact rules and restrictions. Battling Ships replaces Battleship, Chutes and Ladders becomes Snakes & Ladders, and there’s always Yacht, also known as Yahtzee. Parcheesi is one of several more exotic games, supporting a maximum of 4 players.Though some of the games are renamed to avoid lawsuits, it’s obvious which board game each one imitates. Here you have quite a cool collection of such classics, all in one package, and with just the right amount of added glitz and polish to make them a permanent guest on your hard drive. It might be their intrinsic simplicity or sentimental value (everyone who’s played a real board game has done so with friends or familiy), but they’re all great fun all the same.
Sierra takes us back to the classics.Some computer games cost millions to make but lack that inherent charm that board games always seem to have.
