cafeland!
Maybe you can make it so you can browse the site while waiting for your opponent to make their move while playing regular chess.. And you just get a notification when they make their move and it's your turn? So you can take your turn and everyone can take their time and nobody gets bored.. Is that possible?

@Tminus6453: Are you familiar with "Rummy" then?
I believe that Tonk is derived from Rummy, but may be simpler to learn/play.
[quote]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tonk_(card_game)
Tonk, or tunk, is a matching card game, which combines features of knock rummy and conquian. Tonk is a relatively fast game that can be played during brief periods of time by varying numbers of players. In some places it is a popular pastime for workers on their lunch break.[/quote]
[sep]
[b]I have added both Poker and Blackjack to the Poll Options now.[/b]
Please do go ahead and vote on them.
[sep]
We will research more about Poker and Blackjack to help us decide if we think it would be a good match for the site.
And even if we do not make these games right away as one of our first games launched, there may be a high chance of us developing those games months later.

Noticed the low turnout on this post. You might want to consider reposting this every once in a while. Featuring any post really doesn't do much if new users don't know who you are.
This is an observation on my own featured post. Not a complaint. I really don't mind being not popular. 😊

This is just a thought, but I think it would be interesting to add self improvement and gamification games,
Like Habitica
Where people earn points and damage bosses by completing checklists, and users can team up etc

I advise to only include games where users can challenge each other. Add yahtzee, cribbage and backgammon to the list please. And hearts.

You should also have an option to say that "No games are of the slightest interest".

[c=#004A59][b][u]Update:[/u][/b][/c]
Sorry for the previous confusion, but very likely, [b]each game we develop will be playable as a single-player game[/b] as well.
You will be able to choose the game-room settings and customize it to your preferences.
[b]• Public/Open game by Default
• Private/Invite-Only option
• Start a game without others in the room to initiate Single-Player mode[/b]
[sep]
👨👩👧👦 [b]All games will be Multi-player compatible.[/b] This will make things very fun and competitive!
However, [b]each game should be also playable in Single-Player mode as well[/b], which can be used for practice, or simply when you are not in the mood for competition.

@Andrew I want to RELAX :) Zen out and think (a little to barely at all).
I HATE games with competition. NOT for me, and I know, NOT for some of us here on SW.
So[b] please[/b] have games with [u]ONE player[/u] such as Solitaire, etc.
Word games are great. Memory games are OK. Card games are fine too.
[u]We do not need games which are timed or use demerit points: THAT IS A NO-NO.[/u]
Even some kind of easy kid level games are always good; [big][b][c=#002673]people with illnesses don't need more stress. [/c][/b][/big]
[big][b][c=#4C0073]Thank you. 🌺[/c][/b][/big]

@InOtterWords I love this!

I play Joepardy on my phone it's a world wide app called Jeopardy world tour.
It is through UKen and I live in America.
This is a nice app for those who like to challenge their mind.
I've been playing for a few years and I have made alot of progress throughout the years since I've been playing but it's not for someone who is bored with learning anything.
It is a progressive game that questions your educational skills. In a very broad area of study.
I love it, because I grew up knowing the game, but it is similar to Trivia Crack which I suggested when then this poll/question appeared here.
Trivia Crack is an electronic version ofthe board game of Trivial Pursuit.
It's a range of history, sports, geography, science, and lifestyle and more.
If you like word games, or anything relating to learning this is a great challenging game that teaches you, even some useless knowledge. Yet at the same time, it challenges you in skill, knowledge and wisdom, efficiency and sharpness.
Knowing history, studies and understanding of the world that evolves around us.
This game only would apply to anyone who wants to learn.
This is how I learn and challenge myself to what I know and do not know.
I try to exercise my brain everyday, especially in this mundane world that we live in. I try to keep my mind actively learning even on my off days.

Is it similar to the game show Jeopardy! Do you challenge others?

@SimplyTracie Yes it is and it has different stages and levels. You begin in the lowest city, Los Angeles and move up to different city's around the world.
I'm in the city of Tokyo now.

Thanks a lot for your response. I can see that this is all well thought through, more so that I had expected. However, I noticed you said "our hired game developer", which has me a bit worried. You only have one game developer on your team?
I know that making these games in a browser is possible. I've done some browser-based game development myself. But it takes a very long time, and that's a very long list of games, even if you only make a quarter of them, or less.
Regardless of my skepticism, I do hope you succeed and that these games are fantastic, though frankly I would prefer if all of the features promised at launch were on the site before new ones started development.

@RoboChloe: You're welcome.
Thank you also for the concern and feedback.
Yes, we take everything we do very seriously, and this is not an overnight idea we have come up with.
We've done a lot of research before deciding to make these games.
We believe that the current team we have put together is sufficiently diverse and skilled to be able to produce what we are aiming for.
Both Nuno and myself will also be involved in the game development, probably more on the Server/Website side, and will handle most of the Multi-player data sharing, variables, game logic, etc...
While the game developer will handle more of the game mechanics, animations, and will implement the various assets provided to him.
We also have a very skilled professional in each area:
[b]• Character & Object Design
• Artwork/UI/Background Design
• Music Production[/b]
It is a team of experienced individuals, each excelling at what they do best.
This will help split the workload, so that we can produce high-quality games more quickly.

We understand.
We will not stop developing the other features while the games are being developed.
At the same time however, we want to make this site more exciting in the mean time, and a lot of the other pending features may not add as much excitement to Similar Worlds as the games would.

Thanks for the feedback.
Yup, we are aware that PC players may have some advantage over Mobile players in some games, however, with this in mind, we'll be doing our best to make the game-play as even/fair as possible, regardless of the device being used.

Will they be able to be played on a mobile browser or will the app be needed?
Andrew · Admin
@MagnifiqueGirl: They will definitely be playable on Mobile Browsers.
We are specifically making them to be compatible across all [i](95%-99%)[/i] browsers, both Mobile and PC.

Is the game go an option?
It's not really easy to master it, can be very lengthy on a 19x19 board (there is 13x13 and 9x9 as well) and single player is not an option, but the rules are simple and it may be easy to program.

I enjoy solitaire.
There was a word game
(not any kind of cross word puzzle or Scrabble)
and it has vanished from any phone app, so I can't even recall the name.
Boos are very cute :)

Please put the game named "Checkers"
That should be easy enough as there are many different frameworks.....
