As a complement to the fine list by Cerebel (see http://www.boardgamegeek.com/geeklist.php3?action=view&listi... for his list), I thought I would do a list of the more easy-paced games, where you log on, take your turn, then wait for the email to tell you to take your next turn. These are great for that quick fix of gaming during the day, for giving that bit more thought to a set-up and just for fun and practice during those times when you are not (supposedly) gaming. They are not for the impatient - often games take several weeks to complete, especially if you have players in different time zones!

*Territories* you can play on www.mastermoves.eu .

In the Piramid, the Competition or the Daily Tournament, or invite a friend on the site by email address.

We started in 2007 and now you can play:
*8Cities* (building like in the boardgame *Isi*)
*Beasty Beach* (on this site only!)
*Bungalow Boss* (on this site only!)
*Dominate* (on this site only!)
*Floriado*
*Gipsy King* (Released as boardgame too, but on the site it's without the double moves, and be aware: the more players boardgame of this game is a very different experience to the 2 players game on the site)
*No Limit* (don't miss this! On this site only!)
*StreetSoccer* (the best version!)
*Territories*

All games on Mastermoves are 2-player-games.

If you're going to list every single game on Super Duper Games, then post ONE entry and list ALL the games, instead of posting entry after entry after entry for the SAME WEBSITE...

But does it really matter? The geeklists a game are in are listed on the game's page, so from the other end, this is really useful. Super Duper's games are exactly the kind of games you would like to know where to play, if you stumbled across them on BGG.
