Hey all,

I'm in need of some ideas for games which I can play via email.

I've browsed google but only found PbeM games which are definately not what I'm looking for.

I've tried the following:

Add-On story game, where each player adds a new line to a story.

Replacement game, where you replace titles of films or books with a word, eg. sausage.

Sudoku, where each person does say, 9 squares each, then passes on to the next player.

I've also tried to make my own turn-based strategy game which could be done by email, a bit like Advance Wars for gameboy, but it ended up having such a complex way of keeping health points and attack points that it just gave everyone a headache.

If anyone has any bright, easy to play ideas, please share!

:D

Chess.

Checkers.

Battleships.

Really just about any kind of board game based on strategy rather than dice rolls...
