Game Courier supports many different games. Here is one picked at random:
Monkey King Chess - Monkey King fights Goblin King on 44 squares board in game with oriental influences

Tiger Hunt

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

This game was invented by David Paulowich. The tiger moves as a knight or a queen. Pawns do not promote. A stalemated side loses.

Thanks to J"org Knappen and Esengo for help with debugging. The game is of course very similar to Maharajah and Sepoys.

2006-12-23NoneThe error involving stalemate has been corrected. Thank you for pointing this out. I could not reproduce the failure of the tiger to move as knight plus queen.View [*]
2004-08-26NoneTwo problems:
  • It says that the Tiger can move as a Queen or a Knight. However, it won't let me move the Tiger as a Knight.
  • It says that a stalemated side loses. However, the game was a stalemate, but was scored as a draw.
