Zertz and Dvonn implementation for Windows and Linux   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #78 of 95 |
Hi,

I just released a new version of Holtz (1.2.0) which now allows to play
Zertz and Dvonn locally, over network, and against a simple AI. It can
also load PBM and Little Golem games for analysis purposes.

This time I would like to reach a much higher quality level with the
release so I am happy about anyone helping to test the program.

kind regards,

Martin
