* Snooker *
Snooker is my favourite game on the site. There are 20 rooms available for snooker games and at the moment there is 440 players currently playing.
Another feature of the snooker catergory is Snooker Lite. This is basically snooker on a pool table. There are 3 rooms available for this game.
* Tanx *
Tanx is a great multiplayer battle game, where the object is to drive your tank around the battle field and blow up other tanx. Although the graphics are not the best in the world, this game is highly addictive and will keep you busy for days. This game currently has 75 players currently playing.
* Chess and Checkers *
This games are the old classics, with generally good graphics, they give similar versions on the net a run for there money. At the moment there are 732 people playing chess and 76 people playing checkers.
* Reversi *
Complicated game this one, but you have to trap your opponent and replace their pieces with yours. There is 41 players at the mo, but its not one Ive really been interested in.
Other games on the site include Larkinor Quest, Nine Men's Morris, Mahjong, Four in a Row, Gomoku, GemJam, Boulderdash, Swarm, Crimsom Land, Speedy Shooter, Aqua Bubble, Air Hockey, and Richochet.
The best thing about this site is that all the games are FREE!!!!
They do hold tournaments in most games, however you have to be a subscriber, which is generally quite cheap.
$8.99 for 4 months membership and $19.99 for a years membership. The best thing about being a paid member is the adverts disappear, making the gaming experiance a lot better.
Most of the games have ratings points so you can keep upto date with how your doing compared to other people.
The site itself is easy to navigate, and the customer services people are always quick to answer emails.
