40 Column/C64 Games?

I finally got my C64 online and have been dialing into various boards
I've seen online.

Most of the systems I have connected to have had a very limited and
mostly non-functional collection of games.

Were there any good games for 40 column/C64 graphics systems and if
so, where are they currently hosted? I prefer RPG style games, but am
willing to give anything a shot!

You don't mention whether you've looked at BBSes on
[http://cbbsoutpost.servebbs.com/](http://cbbsoutpost.servebbs.com/)
\- this is a collection of C64/128/Amiga specific BBSes.

I'm involved with developing (on-and-off, mostly off these days) Image
BBS, so I'm biased towards those systems. There's an RPG based on Car
Wars for Image BBSes called AutoDuel, you might try that.

There are lots of games on Image BBSes, it just depends on the sysop's
preference for having games available. Any of the Commodore Image or
Wrong Number nodes will have  a decent selection of games. I should
put up a page on my [Image BBS documentation web
site](https://pinacolada64.github.io/ImageBBS3-docs.github.io/) with a
list of games some day.

Thanks! I have seen the listing at the outpost, I think I have
connected to a few from there.
I'll definitely try one of the Wrong Number nodes and check out their
games.

I run the original wrong numbers, my current one Wrong number 4 had
many games and all work. Let me know if you have any issues with any
of them.
