There were a bunch of 90s BBS games that worked like this. All the players had so many "turns" (maybe better described as "action points") which they could use for different activities in a given game. They reset each day. It was more of a mechanism to keep connections shorter because most BBSes only had a few phone lines, or even just one, so the number of simultaneous users was extremely limited.
