Playing Games on Skype
(Hope this is posted in the right forum)

I'm running (what I think is) the latest version of Skype, 5.5.0.124 on Windows 7 Home Premium, 64 Bit (if any of that matters - judging from the site, some of that did).

My brother has "Extras" on his Skype, and we tried playing a game, but alas, to no avail. I don't have extras, and it seems I can't get them.

Any solutions on how to install games, such as Backgammon, Chess... on Skype?

Thanks!

Not an option.

By Tool, my options are:

Apps
Change Language
Accessibility
Share Skype With A Friend
Skype Wi-Fi Access
Options

(and apps doesn't seem to help)

Looks like you need an older version of Skype.
