2nd Article. 2nd Marking Period.

Novelgames.com is one of the few gaming websites that isn’t blocked at school. It offers a collection of classic and updated versions of a lot of games. Some of the games include Snake, Tritris, Crazy Taxi, Battleship, and Montris. Some of the games are multiplayer and some are single. Some play against computers and some are downloadable to your computer.
I enjoy Novel Games (NG) because it provides entertainment during those times in school when you just don’t have any work to do. Since they put in the new LightSpeed blocking system on school computers, almost every games site is blocked. NG is one of the few sites I know of that remains unblocked. So, if you ever find yourself out of work to do and bored during school, go to NG.
Now teachers, you may not be all excited to hear about this games site that is unblocked but trust me, some of the games are educational. So, the kids in your class won’t be mindlessly clicking away on some pointless videogame called “Poke the Penguin”, but rather playing a brain-enhancing game such as Word Vine.
“Word Vine?” You may be asking. Word vine is a game of connecting similar words with each other. For example, you may have the three words, apple, sauce and tree. The game asks you to put the words on the vine as “leaves”, connecting words that are similar. So you would make a chain that goes in the order like this: tree, apple, sauce. Apple and tree go together, and apple and sauce go together. The game offers about 60 levels of word entertainment that can make your brain want to explode. Trust me.
So, the next time you’re in class and want to do something because you’ve finished all your work, give Novel Games a visit. Check out some of my personal favorite games such as, Daisy Petals, Crazy Taxi, Word Vine, and Snake. Believe me; you will have a lot of fun. But remember to ask your teachers if you’re allowed to be playing games once you’ve finished your work, because you don’t want to get in trouble.
