I was playing the 'other' game - OZWIN - on 36k for some years
(how? - I don't know: but I do remember much earlier connecting to
CIS by acoustic coupler - maybe 45 bps if you were lucky)

OZWIN was another forum on compuserve and it played a game that
was very similar to dixonary which was on the Tapcis forum. Ozwin
was sort of dedicated to forum control but of course when
compuserve went AOL-like there was no need for such software.
There were apparently multiple “other” games. I got started on the CompuServe MPGAMES forum, and was referred to the TAPCIS version from there. MPGAMES eventually merged with GAMERS and that community still lives on a website called DreamLyrics which maintained a version of the “other” game until a few years ago.
But the original TAPCIS version is what lives on here!

Back in the early
days I learned a lot of new words, and I am not talking about
the ones provided by the game.
