Are there any Tablet PC games or Windows games with Ink support built in?

Thanks,

There are also a number of other games that work well with pen input such as Popcap Games' Bookworm, The Incredible Machine, and most card and puzzle games. While these are not "ink enabled" they are good games for the TPC.

i've been playing Civilization III with my pen. It works great! I'm going to install Simcity 4 on my M1300VA to see if it works as well.

I heard Myst 3 has native pen support. I am going to look into that. Thanks for all the examples. Keep posting them.

With active pen tracking, Baldur's Gate seems to work well, and I'd think the newer AD&D games would be even better (w/ pie menus and more dragging / stroking)

A few board games that work with only pen (mouse) input:
KChess: http://www.arkangles.com/kchess/
MVP Backgammon: http://www.mvpsoft.com/
(Some of their other games may also work, just haven’t tried them)
IsleWar: http://www.soleau.com/
(Similar to Risk)

Blazio,

Me too. The only minor glitch is you can't negotiate gold amounts in trade agreements. I find I use my pen mostly for my developing empire and switch to laptop mode in the later years.

I have Baldur's Gate 2 installed on my M200, works great with the pen. I also have C&C red alert 2 installed, also works great with the pen. Both also work well with virtual drive. They are great in between classes or when a class gets very boring. When I have my tablet in my docking station at home with my external keyboard and mouse, first person shooters work well. I got a few gift certificates to Best Buy for my birthday, so I'm hoping to get C&C Generals and SimCity 4 in the next few weeks.

Morrowind goes rather mental with the pen, cursor darts about like fast darty thing.
