Games

Some time ago, during one of our English class, we talked about different toys which we liked as a child. While on this subject, I would like to share with you a few examples of games which I found quite entertaining.
I want to focus on three various games.Their common feature is that you can find all of them on the Internet.

SÅ‚owotokas the name suggests, is a word game, involving the making of words. Rules are very simple. The player, having 16 letters to use, has to create as many words as fast he/she can.
The longer the word finds the player, the more points will be awarded. The winner is the player who collects the most points. By the way, there is a mobile app of this game, that allows you to play using your mobile phone.

Just try - https://slowotok.pl/ ! :)

Another game that I highly recommend is Rummikub, which combines elements of rummy and mahjong. Originally, it was a board game, invented in the early 1930s, but now it is also avaiable on the Internet. It is played with tiles. It's worth pointing out that rules aren't as complicated as it may seem at the beginning. Online version of the game can be easily found on the Internet.


The last game is called Quizwanie, in English – QuizClash. It's a a free social quiz game, which contains more than 25 000 questions. You can check your knowledge in different categories, playing with your friends or with other users. It seems to me that this game is only avaiable on the mobile phone, as an application.

I have discovered a lovley and amusing website some time ago and I just want to recommed it to you. I noticed that it becomes more and more popular, so maybe you have already heard about it.
One thing is certain, browsing through this site you can waste a lot of time. :)

On the facebook profile we can read that it is ''a leading art, design and photography community for creative people”.
The page is divided into different categories, so everyone can find something interesting, The choice of the category depends on your personal preferences. You can choose for example: travel, photography, food art or simply you can view the most popular posts.
Anyone can add something, so the content is created by different users and what's more, all texts are written in English. I hope it can contribute to improve language skills. :)

I recently read about an Australian artist who uses candies to turn rooms into ''sweets wonderlands''. The pictures accompanying the text showed really fascinating effect. (link below).


For me, this page is in some way a source of inspiration. Another advantage is that you can find a lot of interesting and sometimes funny information in one place. As I said, unfortunately it can be transformed into wasting time on the Internet.
