It’s been a while since I’ve found such a great, free interactive game site to share with you. There are paid memberships, but you don’t need it to play the games. The free registration gives you access to the high score tables.
There are lots of different categories of games: Logic, Word, Typing, Focus, Memory, Mouse, Math, Search, Card, and Other.
In the Typing section, I found Typo to be fun. This game ‘s basically like a typing test. You try to type the sentence as accurately and as quickly as you can. If you succeed, you get a bonus round where you type a series of words as quickly and as accurately as you can and move onto the next round. It was a lot of fun.
Next I headed into the Search category. I tried Word Zirch, which was a heck of a lot of fun, but I’m a big word search geek. The words float in the middle of the screen, and the word you are looking for appears at the bottom. Click the word when it appears in the middle, and the next word to find will come up at the bottom. I scored a 3000+ at this game and found that I spent a lot of time playing and not writing this article. 🙂
In the Word Games area, it was hard to decide what to play. Hang Mind, this site’s version of Hangman, gets more difficult as the rounds go on. I used up a lot of my guesses in the first round and was sorely missing them in the rounds to follow.
From there I moved onto the Logic area, which had a lot of interesting games. My favorite is Tweak, somewhat like a slide puzzle and somewhat like a Rubik’s cube. As you get further in, you get more puzzle pieces and more time. By the fourth one, I was already addicted and frantically scrambling to finish the puzzle. I had a lot of fun!
Why don’t you take some time and check out the other games that they offer?
