   The only dedicated gaming for Wildcat! is wcCasino.     
      
   In addition to wcCasino most sysops have replaced their older ANSI Side DOS   
   Doors with Multi-player PHP Games.  Any PHP / Perl / Ruby based game should   
   run fine on Wildcat!.   
      
   For single player Games Java based games remain the most popular.   
      
   At present their is nothing native to Wins akin to the Quake/Doom master   
   server platform.
