Game 39: Zilch

There's something wildly addictive about dice throws. It feels like there should be a skill to it. There MUST be a skill to it. Why do we keep failing then? Why haven’t we got 'the knack'.

String together a sequence of dice throws. Pick when to bank the points. Build your score up as quickly as possible. Break the 10000 mark first. Hope your opponent fails. There's even going to be a play online option at some point.

Like the brutally addictive 'real world' game Yahtzee - you WILL lose days to this!

Follow the on screen instructions, but all you need is your trusty mouse to win at this one.

Don't get cocky... if the comp gets a couple of 1500 scores on the trot it can all go pear-shaped.

Game 15: Risk

Take over the world in this 'puterised version of the classic board game.

For those of you not geeky enough to already know the score here; You're the General, and it's your duty to invade neighbouring countries and defend your lands against enemy attack. RISK has always been a secret geeky addiction of mine, and this online version is definately a decent recreation. Use your mouse to choose territories and roll the dice. Protect and invade in an effort to dominate the world!
