Please, Improve This Game! It has Potential!
Pros: *You can play over the internet with other players and the program keeps a rating system. *You can select pre-written messages to send to other players. Cons: *The Most difficult level when playing against the computer is not very difficult. *You can't select to play against a player with a specific rating. When you press play, the program randomly selects someone for you to play with, most of the time you will find yourself playing against someone with a lower rating than yourself or someone with a slightly higher rating. *You can't save a player you just randomly played with to a buddy list so that you can avenge your lost later when he/she is online. Things that can be improved on: *I would allow you to choose a difficulty level and based on that difficulty level I will have the computer generate a live player with the desired rating you can play against. *I would have an option to turn chatting on/off and free form typing instead of preset messages. (Perhaps you can make your own preselected Messages) *When playing against the computer the computer should not take so long to make a move! *It would be nice if there were an option to watch players with High Ratings Play! *Many times a player will have the game lost and the game will not allow you to force the win. Overall the game is good but it does not offer much more than the Free Version.
Very good but.....
No penalty for quitters.
Has potential
This game is o.k. It can be better. I would like this game to have a more realistic look and feel. I don't get how the scoring works.
