Have you ever wanted to chat and play games with your friends while they are miles away? Paper Games provides you a means of playing and chatting with many friends all at once...even if they don't have the same smart phone as you!

(more about Paper Games after these images)

Introduction:

Paper Games allows you to create virtual pieces of paper that you can draw on and send to other people to draw on and send back to you. In fact, you can do this with up to 4 people on a given "Game" (whom you can easily chat with).

When creating a "Game", you can select a "Template" to start it with (Dots/Boxes, Connect 4, etc.) and which players to play it with. Not everyone needs to be online at the same time, when it is their turn, if they are not online, it will send them an email notifying them of the game.

A "typical Game" would be like:

Player1 creates a "Connect 4" game then opens the game and clicks in one of the grid spots to make a dot there.

Player1 then hits the "SEND MOVE" button to send the move to Player 2.

Player2 (if they currently have Paper Games running) will be informed that it is now their turn.

Player2 then clicks in another one of the grid spots and hits "SEND MOVE" to send it back to Player 1.

This continues until the players are done with the game.

If either player is not running Paper Games when it becomes their turn, the game server will email them a short message saying it is their turn.

When either player runs Paper Games and it is their turn, the application will tell them it is their turn, flash the title on the game(s) that it is their turn in, and sort those games to the left-most part of the list.

Features:

Multiple Templates (Dots/Boxes, Hangman, Pipe Layer, Connect 4, etc.)

Not all players of a "game" need to run Paper Games at the same time

Includes a "Blank" template that allows you to setup whatever game you like. (if you have a game that you want a template added for, send the suggestion to Support@MichaelRanch.com)

The full version allows 10+ simultaneous games

Up to 4 players in each game (you and 3 others that you name or let the game randomly select)

The players decide the rules...the app just provides the "virtual paper" to play them on

In-game chat with all players in the game

Turn reminder emails for when someone plays while you are away...if you give it an email address when you setup your account.

Notifies you when it's your turn if you have it loaded in either the game you are in, or any of your games if you are at the main menu.

And much more!

Hints and Tips:

If you get a random player that you liked playing with, just enter their name on your next game to play them again.
