Something like a grand strategy game with teams maybe? Or even something like team online Risk? Seems like it could be a good time.

Something that you can get into for a couple of hours without a massive learning curve, I guess.

Do online team or co-op text based adventures exist?

Thanks everybody for the recs. Lets see how much malware is on game torrents.

    Foxhole is a grand strategy war game with a huge logistics layer. You control an individual soldier and can fight, mine for resources, build trench systems, deploy poison gas, and get shot repeatedly by snipers. The game relies heavily on multiplayer coordination, with large clans driving logistics to gather resources in order to build tanks, artillery, bunker systems, and more. At the same time players will be pushing active fronts to try to conquer territory. It takes a few hours to get the hang of all the systems but if you want to be part of a big, persistent war it's a fun time.

      sounds interesting. I found a torrent for it - If I get it installed in a VM is it possible to play multiplayer? Like do you have to play it thru steam or something to play multiplayer?

        I don't know. I've always played it through Steam. Maybe check their discord out and ask?
