There used to be some checkers and chess games online where you would open
a game and then wait for, or challenge, an opponent.  I am not 100% certain
that both players could be in the game at the same time but, as they are
games of turns (that people can play by mail), I am sure they would work if
two people were logged on and each were exiting after they'd made their
latest move.

I have a old DOS checkers door on my other board, moetiki.ddns.net:27.

There is also a game called DoorMUD.  It may let you play with others live.
It is fashioned after the multi user dungeon games that were on the early
text-based internet.
