The games are playable, but there are a few shortcuts you can enable to make them run quicker. I think some of those require the starter packs.

I wouldn’t call other game crippled without the packs. > On Jan 25, 2015, at 7:52 PM, Charles Rivard <wee1s...@fidnet.com> wrote: > > How did you find the games playability before the starter packs? > > --- > Be positive!
