$5,000 Welcome Bonus
Have you found your favorite game online yet? There are dozens of childhood classics available to play. Have a look at this list to know where to find them.
Did you know there are board games online? Nostalgic memories of Christmases with cousins barely seen can be enjoyed online with your favorite game that won’t collect dust or won’t have pieces missing.
Scrabble
Ah, the game that has every family pulling out the dictionary. Many a divorce lawyer have witnessed the tale of “YOLO is a word. I can use it in a sentence” in the days after Christmas.
If you go scrolling through the app store, though, you might come across the much cheerier Words With Friends. With a reputation for creating relationships rather than destroying them thanks to a couple of viral stories, Words With Friends is the therapist to our family crisis.
Invite known friends to play or be matched up with a random player and see what you can make of it.
At least online there’ll be no board to flip, but with the final word being that of the app, maybe a phone or two might take a flight out the window.
Blackjack
It turns out you don’t need to go all the way to Las Vegas to get the blackjack experience. Whether it’s on your phone or computer, you can find online blackjack almost anywhere on the internet.
Play a programmed game or live into a casino to enjoy the thrill of the game.
There are even themed games with the Monopoly man ready to play, speaking of…
Monopoly
There is already every type of Monopoly: from Disney villains Monopoly to every football club Monopoly and even Trolls Monopoly. It isn’t much of a surprise, then, that the man with the top hat and cane is on the internet.
On the mobile app you have the option of playing against the app as a single player, being matched up with others online, pass and play where you take your move and hand the phone around the room, or online with invited friends.
It is the same infuriating enjoyment you remember of taking fake money from your friends and building your capitalist empire of plastic hotels – and it should really be studied as an element of the human condition.
Plus, if you play against the app, you can set it to easy mode and gain some dignity back from your last bankruptcy.
UNO
The game that sparked a thousand memes, UNO is available online for you to play against other online players or with your friends. And this time the app’s rules go so no; you can’t stack a draw four with another to make a player draw eight.
The app also has a lot of extra modes to make things more challenging if it’s just too easy to beat your friends.
People are still arguing today, what is mightier: the pen, the sword or the four draw cards.
Why not give the online version a try? You could reconnect with far away friends or make some new ones. Whatever way you play, enjoy!
