Words with Friends is another great game that I remember playing way back in college. The game is a take on the classic word game Scrabble, but instead of playing it on a board you get to play it virtually with your friends. In the game you need to fill up the board with words using letters in your tile bag and for each word you play you’re rewarded some points, depending on the letters you use and the tiles on which you place them. The game is a great test of vocabulary and strategy at the same time, and it’s a fun game to pick up whenever you have some free time.

Are you a fan of trivia games? Then you should try out Quiz Planet – a fun trivia game that you can play with your friends. You can choose from a variety of topics and challenge your friends by answering questions based on the topics. Both you and your friends get the same questions and you have to answer these questions in a stipulated time limit. Once you’re done with the quiz you can compare your scores and see who won. The game can even be played when none of your friends are online as the game records your responses and compares them with your friends’ when they finally submit their answers.

Stone Dash is a really simple to play arcade style game in which you have to blow up stones of the same color. The larger number of stones you blow up in one go, the more points you collect. Each level has a leaderboard and your objective is to collect as many points as you can to take the top spot. While you can randomly tap anywhere to break blocks and collect points, you’ll need to strategically build up combos if you really want to land on the leaderboard.

Most of you have already heard of Angry Birds and just in case you haven’t, it’s a simple game in which you have to catapult a variety of different angry birds at some greedy pigs and take them down. Each stage features two different type of pigs, one for you and one for your opponents, and you have to carefully pick which ones to kill or you might accidentally kill your own. The Facebook Messenger version of Angry Birds can be played against friends, making it a much more appealing option than the regular game.
