I have tried online gaming sites before and usually had a problem with them freezing up on me. The games also were not that much fun. On a recent trip to Cape Cod a friend showed me this site and we tried some of the games. I came right home and went to the site for myself and started looking it over. You need to get a user name and password to use but that takes very little time. The very first game you play each day takes a bit to load but all other games after that load quite fast.
There is nothing to download on most of the games. I have become hooked on one called word whomp. It is set up with badgers popping out of holes and there are letters given for you to make 3-6 letter words out of. There are three skill levels to choose from. Even if you don’t get all the words if you get enough you get a bonus of tokens. They have cash prizes and you accumulate the tokens. There are several word games, trivia games, casino games and also places to get free things. In between games there are 35 second intermissions in case you need to go grab a cold drink or something. The games are timed so you don’t want to leave in the middle of a game. I have become so hooked on this that as soon as I check my e-mail each morning I head right over to Pogo to play for awhile. I read all my alerts from Mouthshut and back over to the game and back and forth I go all day. I never thought I would get hooked on something like this.
There is a chat feature where you can talk to others that are playing and sometimes I will chat a bit during intermission so it isn’t a very long chat. I would recommend this site to anyone that likes fun games. There are at least 50 to pick from. Give it a try and you might get hooked too.
