A NEW ADDICTION: HYPER-BACKGAMMON FOR PC CD-ROM

Imagine playing a game similar to backgammon against a computer that knows
the right move for over 32,176,875 different checker and doubling cube
combinations. ROMTIME, a California based CD-ROM publisher, has released
just such a game. HYPER-BACKGAMMON, played with three checkers and a
doubling cube, uses the same principles as the original game of
backgammon, only is much faster and in many ways more exciting.

HYPER-BACKGAMMON was developed by Hugh Sconyers, a two-time world team
backgammon champion. To provide the data, Mr. Sconyers programmed a
computer to calculate all the equities for every possible combination of
men and doubling cube when playing HYPER-BACKGAMMON. Two years later, the
computer had determined the best play for over 32 million scenarios and is
accurate to within plus or minus 1%.

HYPER-BACKGAMMON is for players aged 7 to 107. Since fewer playing pieces
are used, the basic offensive and defensive strategies of the game can be
easily grasped. Within a short period of time, a player can learn how to
set traps and barriers, take calculated risks, and test his gambling
instincts with the doubling cube. For more experienced players,
HYPER-BACKGAMMON is an excellent way to improve skills and perfect the
game.

System requirements are a CD-ROM drive that supports the ISO-9660 standard,
interface card, cable and software, a minimum of 640K RAM with 400K
available, DOS 3.1 or later, VGA card and VGA color monitor. The suggested
retail price is $39.00
