An awesome game I found in John Forbes Nash (Jr.)'s biography "A beautiful mind". Had been waiting for long to play this game and finally got the chance to do so, a few days ago.
Its called "So long sucker" (although its other name is rather very offensive) and its a perfect game of diplomacy, alliances and backstabbing :) Just managed to play a couple of 3P games online yet (with SA, HA and another friend SB.) Ap has also agreed to play it.
And everyone found it to be completely AWESOME. :) Cant wait to play the next game, especially in 4P. Its a great mind game, and will be enjoyed by all (except the losers :) ) The rules can be found here.
I have been playing so far in Google Docs (Surprise! Surprise! The Indian ingenuity at work here) and anyone who wants the Google Docs version can just ask me at the.original.soni@gmail.com. Others who would like to play this game are even more welcome to mail me :) [As they say, the more the merrier.] For others who would like to play online, we are also trying to make a HTML version. [But no guarantee of it being made. None at all. If I were given a bet, I would be betting against it myself.]
So do try this game. Play once to understand it, twice to love it, thrice to know it, and hundreds more to master it :)
Njoy!!!! Take care... (And this one's for you HA) HD. XD
[My next blog post is in progress, but it will be taking some time to be made. So please be patient]
