Recently I got a new cell phone and it has a cute game on it called Bubble Breaker. For awhile me, my gf and my mom were competing for my phone to see who could score the highest points. Great fun-especially when my mom says, Jane-hand me your phone. You know she’s hooked. Well, gf & I have tried to find Bubble Breaker online to download it for my mom and no luck. But I might be able to find a substitute on Kongregate.

You might have seen that Kongregate won a Crunchie for Best Time Sink Site. Very fitting award! Besides trying to find the Bubble game for my mom, I like to occasionally relax by playing a computer game but I’m not so much into it that I want to buy an Xbox. So this is a great option. It’s free, the games are online and there are plenty to choose from!

For those looking for a community of gamers this is one option. Kongregate has several ways people can connect. Of course there are multiplayer games; developers can upload games; there’s a chat area next to each game so you can chat with others on Kongregate and, newly added, you can find your friends.

You probably won’t see my name on the leaderboard or under the contest leaders, but if you come across my profile suggest a game. Tonight I’m having fun with Fancy Pants.
