The Triple Play corporation of Lafayette, IN staked its name on an unusual gimmick: selling its games three to a floppy. However, this trio of board game adaptations - based on backgammon, Mastermind, and mancala - failed to arouse much interest, leaving Game Disk Number 1 for Macintosh as the only thing the company ever published.
A MacWorld ad offered "$4000 in prizes in the BACKGAMMON TRIPLE PLAY-OFF," promising more details on the disk, but my copy has no such info. Information about how this contest played out would be welcome.
I haven't tried the other two games, but I was disappointed with Backgammon. Although it has some great features (you can undo one whole roll, ask for suggested moves, see all possible moves, have the last move marked, and save a game), I don't really call something "backgammon" unless it uses the doubling cube.
