If you like word games you will love this game of Chicktionary. The basic idea of the game is to build words from letters that the chickens hold.

In the game of Chicktionary which can be found in the Games2Go website, there are 7 hens. Each hen has a letter and the aim of the game is to build as many words as possible from the letters that you are given. The larger the word the bigger the score. Scores start at 100 points for 3 letter words and go up to 1600 points for a 7 letter word. There is always at least one 7 letter word in each game.

You can choose to play the timed mode or the untimed mode. Whichever you choose there is also the chance at the very beginning before you see the letters to guess how many words you may get and bet on this, therefore giving you the chance to win more bonus points. I tend to stay on the more conservative side by choosing the minimum 8 words which gives me a bonus of 1000 points. Chicktionary is fun and exciting while providing a rare intellectual challenge. Playing with the timer puts you under more pressure but this only adds to the fun and excitement. It is also a game that I could play jointly with others to try and see how many words we can get together.

By either typing or clicking on the letters to build the word you can make the word and press enter when you are done. The board or egg basket at the top shows you the words that you have already found and if you try and duplicate it will stop you. At the end of the round you are shown the words that you missed and have the choice of continuing or quitting. I will definitely be playing this game again to try and better my score each round.

Bowling which can be found in the Games2Go website is so realistic that when I played I almost wished I was there in the bowling alley; I might have got a better score also. The bowling game is a 2 dimensional game that is extremely realistic with sound added also.

Just like with a real bowling game, all that you have to do is line up your bowling ball correctly and click on the mouse to shoot. Of course here you are not really controlling the ball like you think you are. In a real bowling game you have more control over the direction of the ball. Although with practice you do get a grip on how to play this online bowling game and soon you will be knocking down pins just like at a regular bowling alley.

Don't be put off if you can't get any pins down in the first few goes. That happened to me also until I realized that the more power you push off the ball with i.e. press down on the mouse, the more power your ball has and you actually might manage to get some pins down. After playing a few games, not rounds, full games, I still did not manage to get a strike so I am not sure what happens when you do. But, the scoring is just like a regular game with two shots per round. You also have the option of playing with 2 players which adds a nice competitive element to the game making it even more fun. Until I get the hang of it more and get my first strike, I will not be challenging anyone to a game just yet.

This is a cute little game that can be found at the Games2Go website. I consider it to be a glorified version of Pac Man where you are a little energized round sea creature called Nemo who is trying to push all of the energy bubbles into a transporter and therefore win the round.

The aim of the game is to try and get the bubbles into the transporter and get rid of as much dirt as possible before the time runs out. It sounds easy enough but as you proceed from level to level it gets harder and more complicated to get the bubbles into the transporter. There are obstacles in the way all along and in addition you are chased by evil fish that can gobble you up or you can get smashed by heavy stones if you do not move out of the way in enough time.

Moving your little Nemo is very simple and can be done using the cursor arrows. If you want to clear an area of dirt you can press on the space bar and an arrow at the same time. Nemo is nimble and quick but you have to use your head to get far in this game and I suggest you look very carefully at the game before you start moving. A wrong move can cost you a life and end the game early. There are keys in awkward places that you need to get hold of in order to open the transporter and start pushing the bubbles in. Aqua Energizer is a great game to play on a regular basis as there are so many levels and it is rare that you remember what you did in the previous game so it something you can come back to time and time again.

2D Shootout which can be found at the Games2go website is a simple but fun shooting game to play. As an interlude from a heavy work schedule or as an evening pastime, you can quite easily play this easy and quick game.

The game is very simple and based around cowboys and western saloons. All that you have to do is shoot at the nasty cowboys as they pop out from all over the place. The scene in front of you is a standard western saloon of two floors, with windows and a balcony. Of course you also have the regular saloon doors that swing back and forth with the offending cowboys that you need to shoot at.

2D Shootout is all about beating your best score. The game does not last for more than about a minute and in that time you need to shoot as many of the cowboys as you can from where they pop out. Shooting is very simple and done by clicking with the mouse. What is difficult in this game, if at all, is that your reflexes have to be quick in order to get the cowboys. Sometimes two or more come out at any one time and you have to be very quick with your mouse and click on both of them before they disappear. You are not playing against anyone in this game but yourself and it is fun to try and better your score each game in addition to anticipating where the next cowboy will pop out from. This is definitely a game that I will play again!

I normally love puzzle games but after playing the Crazy Boxes game I am not so sure that I love puzzles anymore. I can't decide whether it is a fun game or a silly game that toddlers should be playing.

Crazy Boxes which can be found at the free Games2go website is based around a simple square grid. The aim of the game is to fill the full grid i.e. all of the squares with color. You do this by clicking on different squares which reveal combinations of filled in squares. But, once you click on another square, a different combination comes up on the grid. What you have to do is work out which squares need to be clicked on in order to fill the whole grid.

Crazy Boxes sounds very simple and easy to play but when you actually do start playing it, it can become quite frustrating. That is why I describe it either as a really difficult puzzle or a game for kids. Toddlers or kids would probably just click away aimlessly on each of the squares and at some point manage to get the right combination. If you want help when playing Crazy Boxes, you can click on the solution button and little yellow ticks will appear on the boxes you need to click on in order to make a fully colored grid. After a few games of Crazy Boxes you can easily pick up the methods of the game and it becomes boring and tedious, not a game that I will go back and play again and again.

If you are someone who spends a lot of time on the phone when working or in meetings for hours with many others, then 2D Paintball is the game for you. It can be found under the Sports section of the Game2Go website and is a simple but fun game to play.

The screen is set up as an office with a cannon pointed at the people sitting in the office. The object of the game is to try and hit the Smiley faces that pop out from behind the files, computers and other areas around the office with your cannon. You control the cannon by moving the mouse around the screen and you hit a Smiley face by clicking. The game is very simple; you can choose to play it with the accompanying sound effects or without.

In order to proceed to the next level you need to achieve at least 70% efficiency in hitting the Smiley's. Each level only lasts 35 seconds so you don't have much time. The Smiley's are everywhere and pop out totally at random so it is not easy to keep track of them and catch them all. It took me a good few tries to get to the next level but once I got there the sense of achievement was great! This is a game I will be playing loads especially when I have those long conference calls that just go on and on, at least 2D paintball will keep me busy and happy!

Well we all used to be in awe of technology and its advances, way back when there was the online casino which some of us are still trying to get our heads around. After the online casino, came the mobile casino which meant you could play your favorite online casinos games directly from your mobile phone or hand held device. This was great but there was still the tedious downloading that took time and effort and in most cases you needed to have an existing casino account in order to access the mobile casino account.

Well just recently Spin3 have come up with something that is infinitely better and easier to use especially for those of us who can live without our gadgets and the most updated ones at that. What I am talking about is the 4 incredible casino games which have been adapted especially for iPhones and Android phones. Without having to download anything to your iPhone you can start playing one of four amazing casino games; Classic Blackjack, European Roulette, Major Millions or Tomb Raider. Each game is a phenomenon in itself. But the fact that you can play it directly from the web browser in a specially adapted edition for your iPhone makes it even more attractive.

If you are one of those people who prefers the Blackberry for its solidity, you don't need to get jealous, All Slots casino have also adapted 15 games through their spinware technology which can be played on the Blackberry. Technology is moving forward at such a fast pace but it is still nice to know that we can play our good old reliable traditional casino games even with the newest and best technology.

At first glance this game, Carnival Jackpot which can be found on the Games2go website looks like any other block game where you have to match colors in order to make a line of 3 or more jewels. This is the principle of the game but unlike other games there are different levels here with a time limit for each level. With many different colors and jewels to match up the board is quite busy and it is difficult to find matching colors.

The aim of the game is to find matching jewels of the same color in a line of three or more. You can only move jewels that are next to each other and if you click on the incorrect jewels you will not only lose the go and time but you also lose a life. You are not allowed more than three incorrect moves in a game. Sometimes a row of three will prompt a chain reaction which moves around the jewels on the board to make room for more, other times only the three which you have made a line of will be removed. As each level progresses the number of seconds you have to make a match and remove a line reduces which increases the pressure making the game even harder. As the clock ticks away you will definitely find it more difficult to find matching lines.

Carnival Jackpot is probably not the correct name for this game but once played you will see how fun it is and what a great game to play. It is definitely a game that I will be playing more of to try and beat my all time best score each time.

Playing the game Batman can even be considered more exciting than watching the movie. Here you are Batman, trying to find Batgirl and discover who she is and what her mission is.

Batman which can be found on the free Games2Go website in the adventure section is full to the brim with action and adventure. You are the masked crusader and have to battle your way through many of the enemies and falling objects in order to reach your goal. Movement is by way of the arrows. Jumping is done by pressing on the up arrow, dodging by the down arrow. Movement left and right is by using the left and right arrow keys. When I played the game a few times, it seems the only way to actually get rid of one of the enemies is by using the control key which makes Batman punch out at the enemy. By depressing the space bar, Batman can extend his batrope to get across high buildings or waterways and so on.

This is most definitely a fast action game and you really need to keep your wits about you when playing. After a few games you will begin to notice a pattern to how the shots are fired and the punches are thrown. Getting more points in this game can be done if you pay attention to the timings and always watch what is happening around you. You are given 3 lives to begin with but every time you get punched down or shot at, you lose a life and have to go back to the beginning of that section. This is a fun game but demands a lot of attention and concentration; it is most definitely not a relaxing game to play.

If you are female and think of yourself as somewhat a feminist then you must try this game which is all about female power and cunning. In the game "A Stitch in Time" which can be found on the games2go website, you are a cunning and fast red headed woman who has to make her way through many different levels of adventure and fighting in order to save objects from being stolen in a museum and overcome all of the obstacles along the way.

A Stitch in Time is played using the arrows and space bar as controls. The up and down arrows let the girl jump up and down respectively when she is being shot at. The left and right arrows move her backwards and forwards. By using the space bar, she does a big leg sweep which is more like a judo move than anything else. This game is very fast action and you need to keep your wits about you when you play. By picking up the walkie talkie looking items you can get more ammunition to protect yourself.

I would like to be able to tell you what the higher levels are like but unfortunately I did not manage to get past the first level after playing numerous games. You are timed for each game and once the time is up, you can automatically restart the game with new time or just exit and come back to it some time later. I would like to say that I loved this game as in theory it sounded great but I found it a little boring after a while as how many times can you jump and sweep spin the fighting girl. So as much as my feminism is there I don't think I will play this game again.
