My friends and I used to play VGA Planets (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VGA_Planets https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VGA_Planets) by handing in floppy disks to the kid with the server program at school.
Each school day we would bring the disk with our turn and hand it in to him and he would hand back our disk from the previous turn. It was a blast and great fun given the limitations of tech at the time.

(old 4x ) had native play by email, it was a blast in the nineties, it wasn't easy to play with actual strangers back then and to have internet friends was something weirdos did here in Italy. cables were unheard of so modem sessions had to be short not to interfere with calls. pbm games where perfect for us who lived in this side of the "digital divide"
