Guest guest Posted October 18, 2009 Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 Jackie, when you get to www.aarp.org-- go to the header LEISURE. Then scroll down, there is an article on Video games--- click on that and a new header comes up-- Choose GAMES. Then you can pick a category-- and choose what you want to play. Bookmark the page where the categories for the games come up, and you can go right to it in the future. Enjoy!

Guest guest Posted October 18, 2009 Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 There are free games on pogo.com as well.. of course they have other games that you can play, but there's a huge variety of games that are just free.. scrabble, monopoly, yatchze, card games, puzzle games.. etc.. I play there alot and its real time games, where u actually get to play one another, just like you're at home visiting each other..

Guest guest Posted October 18, 2009 Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 Tracie, I have a majaang titans game that came on my new computer that I am absolutely hooked on. It really gives my brain a work out. Plus there is a children's game where you match the cards that I play a whole lot too.
