Hey, A Black [or do you prefer 'zzo38'? :-) ], we're going to need some good programmers and some good software around here pretty soon, I suspect. Best of luck with your endeavors.

Of course, there are good things about Zillions as well, but some things I don't like. Now I will tell you the thing I do like about it: I managed to make a modification of Senat game so that the Red player (usually the computer player) gets to choose the dice rolls, I played that game, and then I told my brother to play that game and he said 'O, they're just getting lucky'. But, when I said is not a good program I meant it is a good program, but it isn't a good program perfectly as well. But I still like to make a open-source one instead (to make it better). Even Hero Mesh I try to make open-source in PHP also.

What happened to the Zillions server? It seems to be down.

I was trying to unlock the full version and purchase an unlock key online.  However, after the first screen and I click Next, it reads "URL not found" regardless of which browser I try.  Anyone know about this?  Is Zillions still around and working?

The website is still around. I bought my unlock key many years ago, and I'm not in any position to answer your question. You should contact Zillions-of-Games directly about this. Even if you can't get an unlock key, you may be able to buy a used version of the software on CD.

Thanks for the advice.  I did actually e-mail them yesterday but have yet to hear back.  I'll have to see about getting a CD somehow.

Has anyone been able to unlock Zillions of Games to the full version?  I didn't hear back from them when I e-mailed the support team.  Guess they haven't been keeping their URL up to date, regarding the unlock order/purchase online.  Unfortunate, as there are some newer variants I wanted to try on the full version.

I tried a few weeks ago and could not.  :-(

I was really looking forward to playing a few against the computer, too.
That said, I've been having a great time with game courier!
