Can Nanny Cope in Nanny Mania?

by onlinegames @ 2008-05-14 - 15:21:49

How would you fare in Nanny Mania?

So basically, there is a new family in town, very prestigious and everything. The father is the town mayor and the mother is the mayor's wife, a very proper role indeed. She has a lot to do and then when her baby arrives, things get even more hectic. There is so much going on in her busy life that she decides to hire a nanny to take some of the flack away. But this baby is quite a busy baby and you have to see in this game whether you - the nanny - can handle it all.

Lots of tasks to complete in Nanny Mania

Basically, you - the nanny - are given a lot of tasks to complete. Not only do you really have your work cut out for you in terms of housework, etc., like in the real world of nannying or just caretaking in general, there is a limited time in which to do it all. So the first thing I had to do was clean up the mess. But before that, I had to locate the mess (I was told that it would have a yellow trim to it). So it requires fast eyes to find the mess. To clean them up, you click on them. Sounds easy enough but when you have to do this in a limited time (just like in real life), it is not really so easy at all and can indeed (just like in real life) be very frustrating indeed. To complicate (and excite) things further, there are other people walking around. There is basically a lot going on in a mayor and his wife's life, so you have to clean around it. So do not get distracted by everything; just get on with what you have to do.

After that your task is to change the baby's diaper. Again, you have a limited time in which to do it and there are other things going on. And so the game goes on.

Nanny Mania is a cute game with fun graphics. It is a nice and novel idea for a game too. And it shows those out there who are not keeping house just how much more they should appreciate the people who are keeping house for them.


 
 

Get Rich With Dice Mogul

by onlinegames @ 2008-04-23 - 13:20:36

Manage Your Money Well In This Game

Have you ever thought of really trying to make it big, financially speaking? Have you ever thought of perhaps making money by buying property, or perhaps you are just starting off on the property ladder yourself? Well, property is often thought to be the way to make money so why not try your luck at Dice Mogul and see if the property game is for you in real life? That is what I decided to do. I had always wanted to be my own boss as I was so fed up of working for other people. My late grandfather had actually made some money (not a ton, but he had done okay) in property, so when I read about the free game Dice Mogul and saw how it was set up, I decided that I might want to give it a try. It is very much about how you manage your money as you see the different properties and determine which ones you are going to upgrade, but the more you get accustomed to working with this kind of thing, the better aware you will be of whether it is the kind of thing you want to go in to seriously, in terms of business.

How The Game Works

So you are faced with a circular grid. There are four different players (I was blue, but there is also red, yellow and green). You press your button (the dice) and see how far you go and what you will land on. The first time I played, I won $500! Two dice are thrown and that is what your piece moves. I actually thought I was doing well until the other three.

Buy as many properties as you can afford and upgrade them so you will be making a profit from your competitors. Bonus capsules can be very helpful. The way you upgrade the properties is by simply clicking on them with the mouse button.

Beat The Ants At Their Own Job With Ant Buster

by onlinegames @ 2008-03-03 - 16:59:07

Bust the Ants Like You've Always Wanted to With Ant Buster

The ants in Ant Buster are trying to do what they know how to do best - get a piece of food (in this case the cake) and take it with them to the ant hill. We have to try and stop them doing this. What is great about the game is that there are so many visual and practical aids to help you in your task, like the cannons. The cannons will definitely really piss the ants off and push them off track by immediately shooting them, but use them sparingly as they are few and far between. Everything comes at a price and the cannons are no different (costing $30 a piece), so be aware of that.

Practice Makes Better In Ant Buster

When I first started playing Ant Buster I really did not know what I was doing. My greatest problem in the game was trying to aim the cannon correctly. I actually wasted a lot of cannons (as well as money) trying to aim them at the ants. I realized after some time of play however, that it would take time. So I kept playing and playing, despite seeing the cake being consumed very quickly by the ants. The more I played, the better off I became with getting the cannons to do what they should be doing and thus not wasting any of them or spending so much money on them with them not working. So I was happy about that.

It is definitely a cute game and very realistic as you always see ants making their way to their little hills with tiny bits of food. It's funny though as you wouldn't expect them to be running around with huge pieces of cake like these ants seem to manage!

Get Dumbo To Shoot a Hole in One

by onlinegames @ 2008-02-17 - 16:09:48

Play Golf as a Big Hairy Elephant

So finally I get to be a big hairy elephant. And no, before you say anything, it was never a deep fantasy of mine. But still, it is something I have never done before. But that is the thing with these cool free UK games online - you get to be pretty much anything. So with Dumbolf, you get to be a big hairy elephant. And not just a big hairy elephant, but a big hairy elephant who is trying to play golf and shoot a hole in one.

The graphics are very cute. You are faced (well, you being the big hairy elephant) with a mini golf course with trees and hills, golf carts and flags. The elephant's eyes even blink! You then have to place yourself on the correct side of the ball to be able to putt it in the right direction (the first time I tried this game I forgot to move myself so putted the ball right off course immediately). Obviously, each hit gets more difficult as you have to find strategies that will work with more difficult moves. But what is nice about the game is that it lets you mess up as much as you need, in other words you get a lot of attempts to putt the hole the correct way.

Learn The Controls Before Playing Dumbolf

A good piece of advice with Dumbolf, from one who knows (I've played the game a lot of times) is to make sure you work out how to angle your golfing stick before you play the game. Or, for more fun, just try, try and try again until you see that you are actually getting somewhere and aiming correctly. I found that even though I kept trying to play the game and aim differently to get further up in the holes, I never quite managed to leave part (the gauntlet) but I hear the other parts just get more challenging and thus more fun!

Ant Run Pro Junior

by onlinegames @ 2008-02-05 - 16:05:02

I have no idea why this game is called Ant Run Pro Junior as there is nothing junior about it. Maybe the younger generation finds it easier to play this game.

Ant Run Pro Junior can be found in the puzzle section of the Games2Go UK website. It is totally free but very frustrating. Ant Run Pro Junior can be considered to be a building exercise as well as a game of skill and speed. Basically you have to try and build a maze with existing pieces in order for the ant to pass through. The maze is already there but there are different configurations of the path and it is not always easy to guess which way the ant is going.

In order to turn the different sections of the maze which are divided up into a grid image, you have to click on each square. By clicking you rotate the pieces but sometimes they do not rotate in the direction you want them to and your little ant reaches a dead end. There are no extra lives here; if it is a dead end then the game is over.

Ant Run Pro Junior is a game that I believe I will be coming back to again and again to see how far I can get. The more I play the game the better I get and am able to get my little ant a bit further each time. Ant Run Pro Junior demands skill and quick thinking and is a great game to try when you are in the middle of a boring task; it gets your brain cells moving again!

Bunch

by onlinegames @ 2008-01-22 - 10:06:57

Bunch can be found in the Games2go website of UK online games under the puzzle section. As games go, I cannot say hand on my heart that I will be playing this game time and time again.

Bunch is very similar to many other games that can be found in arcades and over the internet. The basic aim of the game is to join together three colored circles by moving other circles. There are seven different colors on the board which is made up of 64 randomly placed balls. In the classic version you are playing against time and need to get as many balls out i.e. three in a row or more as possible. For every 100 balls that you get out, you go up a level. In this version there are 5 levels.

The game is not exactly enthralling although it does have an addictive side to it. Basically you are playing against yourself each time, trying to better your score. At the end of the game, you hear the beeps of a clock advising you that your time is running out. For every group of same colored balls that you manage to maneuver, you get some extra time. There is no help as with other similar games and no music in the background which I think would help the atmosphere of the game.

Bunch is quite boring and monotonous but good for a quick break and definitely keeps your brain cells active. There is another version that you can play within the same framework, called puzzle. For Bunch puzzle, you are not playing against time but against logic. The board gives you patterns that you have to try and match by only going certain directions; the more you match the more you get to do. It is a bit like an intelligence test at school and not something that I would do for fun as I did not get any satisfaction. The same goes for the Classic game of Bunch, I can't say that I will be running back to play it again!

Snipe Out All Colored Balls

by onlinegames @ 2008-01-03 - 10:13:44

This is a fun game that requires some strategic pre-thinking and planning. You get three different colored balls (in level one - each level and each round there are more balls of different colors added to the mix to make it more difficult). You also get some gray balls. With the gray balls you have to try and move the colored balls into their homefield. This is not so easy as it is a case of working out how you are going to move the gray balls so that they will bounce correctly around the colored balls in the accurate way. If you just push the gray ball to let's say a pink ball, it will not necessarily move it to the pink corner. So you have to be able to work out what move is going to result in which ball move.

Improve Strategy in Snipe

One way to improve your strategy and success in Snipe is by looking at the green lines that will be activated once you have dragged and dropped a gray ball to a colored ball. The green line indicates the direction of the shot and if that line turns red it means that the power has reached its full potential. I found that the more often I played the game, the more I learned about which direction the balls would fall and thus how I could ensure greater accuracy. It's a fun game to play but also has a kick; the game can definitely be quite challenging at times.

Enjoy Different Levels and Challenges

There are 3 levels in Snipe. In the first (easiest) level each goal is worth 50 points and you will not encounter any difficult challenges. The second level uses 100 points per goal but if you pass the colored balls to the incorrect colorfields, they will evaporate. At the third (and hardest) level you will get 150 points per goal and all balls will evaporate if you make any mistake by passing them over an incorrect colorfield.

Pay Nothing, Win Lots, at Online Slots Tournament

There is a new online slots tournament at All Jackpots Casino. What is really special about this one is two unique features. One: it is absolutely free to play in the tournament. Two: the prizes are huge and many. There is a $50,000 first prize, and hundreds of other prizes. In other words, you pay nothing but you have a chance to win a lot. I call that an ideal combination.
