Just Words is a take on the classic game of Scrabble. Players will have to form the best words with the tiles denoting a single letter with a point value. Score the double letters and triple words by placing your word on the high-score slots. The game can be played against the computer, with a friend, or even by oneself. 

Set against the backdrop display of a garden, Letter Garden is an online game that’s any teenage word wizard’s dream come true! The goal of the game is to clear the objective that’s shared at the beginning of each level, per board, within the time limit. Words can be made in any direction by dragging the arrow across the tiles. If you're a fan of timed word puzzles, this one's for you!

Does this online game need any introduction? The traditional board game is available online both with the classic board as well as a themed board like winter, Halloween, Christmas, etc.The game can be played against a computer or another person as public or private games. Play and find out how many gammons you gather before the game is over!

Since the time Windows games were the only way to beat time, Spades has been the go-to game! Teens will need a partner to play Spades on their computers. The goal of this online card game is for each team to win the minimum number of tricks they bid on before play begins. The trump is the titular spade for the players to clinch a win!

If you’ve been a fan of Bejeweled, now there’s Bejeweled 2 for you. In the ‘classic mode’, the rules you've always played by apply.  In the other ‘action mode’, you must fill the slots continuously as they are always running down. A good score unlocks the other game-play modes which are just as brilliant!

How many of these online games have you played? Try your luck with all and unlock a new experience of gaming!
