Games for togetherness?
March 2, 2009 2:58 PM

Good online game for LDR?

Partner going to law school, looking for a way to have fun together while not physically together.

No MMO / FPS or massive system specs. Computer based, not platform.

Turn based strategy (chess) or word games (boggle) are good, but looking for the wisdom of askmefi.

Thanks!

Diablo II and Lexulous. Those were my LDR games of choice...

Go is fun, and the game space isn't so small that one of you will consistently dominate the other.

How complex are you thinking? I would recommend cyberboards version of Twilight Struggle for instance if you appreciate more complicated strategy.

As mentioned in the previous question linked above, give Quadradius a shot.

ISC.Ro is a brilliant way of playing Scrabble - it's very sexy to see your other half wielding their intellectual might, and there is the option to chat at the same time while you think. It's be better if I knew how to turn off the helpbot chat, though.
