20 Mar 2002 Good No comment.

11 Mar 2002 Poor this is a useless page and it shows no intrest and the facts are whack and your page should be shut down and i will tell people never to go on this page maybe if you could play the games maybe the page wouldn't have been so bad but you can so the page is useless.

11 Mar 2002 Good the page gives good information but when you show the games you sould be aloud to play a mini version of the game and see if it is intresting because from what i read i thought these games look fun and i would like to play a number of them before i download it. thanks for you time.

12 Feb 2002 Poor this is completely in error, chataranga is a four player game pre-dating crist, you dopes.

23 Aug 2001 Good No comment.

25 Jun 2001 None Ok, I've uploaded a new chaturanga.zip, so now it should work. Remember when you extract the files to check the "use folder names" checkbox, and extract the files to your zillions folder. Let me know if you experience any trouble. Thanks. --D. Howe

25 Jun 2001 None I've been warned that this still doesn't work even with the Mammoth graphics.
I will be fixing the Zillions of Games implementation for this game tonight (ie. in about 8 hours). It will be self-contained and not required graphics from other files. Sorry for all the trouble.
--D. Howe

25 Jun 2001 None It looks like the zillions implementation for this game assumes you have the Mammoth Chess graphics installed. You can get the Mammoth Chess graphics by downloading The Mammoth Chess ZRF and copying the .bmp files to the Images/_Custom/Mammoth subdirectory (create the folders if they're not there).
Sorry about this. I'll work on making the ZRF self-contained.
--D. Howe

25 Jun 2001 None I also have problems with the zrf. It seems that the image files the zrf wants to use are not where the zrf thinks they are (the Images/_Custom/Mammoth subdirectory in my copy of Zillions is *empty*). --- Doug Chatham

24 Jun 2001 None In the past, i have tried many times to download your version of chaturanga AND IT NEVER WORKS!! I contacted zillions of games about this and they were unable to help me. I have the zillions cd. Please tell me if it is possible to get this thing working. You can reach me at (email removed contact us for address) oo.com.
