PlayNET

Description

An early online service that laid down the technical framework for the later Quantum Link, PlayNET featured a GUI which (among other activities) allowed for easy play of parlour games against real players in remote locations, all through the very narrow bottleneck of early '80s ~300 baud modems. Thirteen games included on the disk, distributed (in some areas) with new Commodore 64 computers, included:

  • Backgammon,
  • Boxes,
  • Capture the Flag,
  • Checkers,
  • Chess,
  • Chinese Checkers,
  • Contract Bridge,
  • Four in a Row,
  • Go,
  • Hangman,
  • Quad 64,
  • Reversi,
  • and Sea Strike
