Game Courier supports many different games. Here is one picked at random:
Accessory Chess (with Divaricator) - Drop chess with external piece. The Divaricator can capture by withdrawing in an oblique angle (+zrf)

Emperor of China

If you had a Java-capable browser, you could play Emperor of China here.
Keys "s"=save "l"=load "b"=back once

Chess-Halma hybrid. Win either by checkmating or by moving all surviving units to the opposite corner. This is tricky, since if you capture an opposing unit, you make completing the move across the board that much easier. By my cyberfriend Vincent Everaert, 2003; vincent.everaert@club-internet.fr
