I got the following email about a play by email game, which actually looked interesting - see the web site. Anyone have any experience with it? Hard to believe someone has made this available for "free". Comments?

I checked out the web site and the yahoo group. If it's legit, perhaps they would host a game among NWC members.

Jim, I'll keep you all posted. It will most likely be fine on ME as they said it will run on all Windows Versions. I think it was just an oversight that they didn't mention ME by name.

Hello
It seems it is not a free game. It seems to cost 1,99$ a week. If you don't pay, you don't have all features of the game.
The explanation on the site is not clear though. A won't pay for a site that does not explains clearly what I got for my money.
It is a shame, because this game seems very nice otherwise.
Regards
Stephane
