games A kind of game where the players use
electronic mail to communicate. This may be done via a human
moderator or an automatic
mailing list exploder on some central machine or it may be fully distributed with each player just addressing his mail to all other players.
This is a natural extension of "play by mail" games conducted via
snail mail.
