- SOLITILE 3.0
-
- Distribution information
-
-
- This is a game for the IBM PC family of compatible computers.
-
- Solitile is a game of solitaire, played with "tiles". It derives
- from several similar games, such as "Shanghai", "Gunshy", and
- "Mahjongg", which are played with Mah-Jong tiles. Solitile plays
- the same game, but adds new starting layouts and the ability for the
- player to create new layouts and/or modify the layouts provided. It
- has, built-in, "westernized" pictures on the faces of the tiles, and
- can also use alternate tile-sets, and the program includes a tile
- editor so that the user may alter existing tile pictures or create
- entirely new sets. Solitile 3.0 can also read in and use tile sets
- created for use with Nels Anderson's Mahjongg game (of which there
- are hundreds available).
-
- Program requirements:
- IBM PC compatible.
- EGA or VGA compatible display adapter (with a minimum of 256K
- of RAM on the display adapter; early IBM EGA cards
- will not work). It will NOT work on CGA, MDA, or
- Hercules display adapters.
- Works from keyboard or with Microsoft compatible mouse.
-
