This is a game that is played using a network board server.
BoardServ is a promising game server that has been designed to make networking games easy to implement. This software was created as a personal project and offers an abstract and useful game server for use independently of the game logic or client. With a standalone server package, you can easily import and utilize BoardServ to your advantage.
While BoardServ is not yet finished, it has been tested and found to work in controlled circumstances. However, it is not yet suitable for heavy usage and therefore, it is not recommended to use it over the internet at this stage of development. You can, however, launch an instance of the server and two clients locally to simulate the gameplay.
It is best to use a *nix system for testing BoardServ as Windows systems do not typically perform well with network games. Additionally, it is essential to have Python and command-line knowledge. A small tutorial has been included in the README for your convenience.
One great thing about BoardServ is that it is Free Software released under GNU GPL Version 3. Therefore, you are free to play, modify, and redistribute it as much as you like. The developer is inviting any suggestions for improvements, so please don't hesitate to provide feedback.
