Unfortunately the classic servers for Pogo.com were shutdown a long time ago, and with it went over 150+ legacy games. This exists to get those games working to some degree.

`client-props.jsp`

Unfortunately, all games were entirely configured (layout, asset paths, locale, game parameters) in one single file, config.txt or client-props.jsp's response. Most games are missing this file, so they will more than likely not work correctly or at all. This emulator only exists for those who either:

found a config.txt file
reverse engineered one
wants to play the singular game we have the file for (Perfect Pair Solitaire)
wants to understand how the protocol works so that development can progress

How To Use

Since Pogo still exists today, I'd rather not risk legal issues by distributing game assets (there's a huge asset archive though if you know where to look), so you do need to provide assets. All you need to do is create a folder structure like this where you have the server release stored:

TODO - add screenshots for folder structure here

What Works

Game Initialization
MoTD ("Welcome to Pogo!" server message)
Jackpot Spin Win Condition (requires config in config.txt to work, if you don't want this, rebuild the server with winMet always equaling to false in TCPGameServer.cs)

What Doesn't Work

Chat
'Who's Here'
Pogo Minis
Any Tabletop Games (Monopoly, Battleship, Checkers, etc.)
Downloadable Games (seperate CDL API)
