Netrek made its way onto PCs also and I remember playing it in probably 1994/95 when it was about the only game our crappy rural DSL could handle. Tons of fun and the requirement for strategic teamwork was probably only rivaled by RTS games.

The "black and white Mac" implementation of Risk made it such a breeze to play that I could barely tolerate the physical setup and teardown of the actual board game after it.

To this day I'm still looking for a good large electronic game-board touchscreen. (I know there have been some stabs at this... PlayTable?)
