Playing Facebook Games

Bejeweled Deluxe Version

Image via Wikipedia The Internet is awesome, you can find anything you like, from videos of toddlers falling over all the way to reruns of your favourite episodes. But recently I’ve spent some of my free time playing games on Facebook. There are two in particular that are particularly addictive. One is called Bejeweled Blitz…

Alphabounce

Video Games Live logo

Image via Wikipedia Here’s a great game to try, if you like the idea of a break-out style game. AlphaBounce is this sort of game, but has an added twist. There’s a story behind the game. It’s set in space and you need to explore different sectors, planets and the whole story as you go…

Play games in the Dojo

I was looking for recommendations for games on my new Android phone (the HTC Magic), when someone recommended a game called Cubed Addict. It’s a multiplayer blocks-based game which is really addictive. My thumbs are going to start looking like they took some sort of HGH releasers. You play against players all around the world…

Have you fought my Brute yet?

You might have seen on my other blog that I’ve started playing this cute little online game called Brute where you set up a cartoon character and take part in automated fights against other characters.

Looking for some Bingo?

The days are getting longer and with them the evenings and you know how it is. There’s nothing on TV, everyone is out but all you feel like doing is staying home. And while you’re at home there’s loads of entertainment you can get access to online. So, how about a spot of bingo? The…

Of marbles and magnets

So Santa brought Arthur a brilliant game this year. It consists of a set that needs to be assembled that contains a motor, cogs, marbles and a whole bunch of different things you can use to build a slalom course for the marbles (Arthur calls it his roller-coaster game). It takes around two hours to…

Everyone loves a contest

I’ve just finished running a contest, well, a sweepstake to be more exact on Ugh!!’s Greymatter Honeypot which resulted in Elizabeth from Table4Five winning a Twitter mug, which should be with her soon. I must say, it was great fun and I had some great response from people who took part. I’ll definitely be running…

Use your webcam at the casino

Here’s a cool concept. Lucky Live Casino is an online gaming site that lets you play games like live roulette, blackjack, baccarat, and live poker. And when they say live they aren’t joking, because you can see the dealer right on your screen and make use of your webcam to participate in the proceedings. It’s…

How’s your spelling?

Don’t you hate those words that you always spell wrong? You know, is it acomodate, accomodate, acommodate or accommodate? Well, my spelling checker usually steps in to help me out, but when you’re writing on a piece of paper, it’s pretty important to know which is the correct one. Thing is, it’s not hard words…
