Nothing can be more frustrating than sitting at your desk with an empty inbox and your work for the day complete. However, you cannot leave early and wonder what you can do to pass the time. Help is at hand with many online games available to keep you occupied when you need to wait out the clock. After all, why not enjoy yourself at the same time? Here are some ideas:
Runescape
If you are not too worried about your boss looking over your shoulder at your computer screen, try playing Runescape. The original version of this game was released in 2000, but it remains popular to this day.
Runescape transports you back to medieval times, where your character and other players must work together to make weapons and equipment needed to fight off an army of monsters or complete missions for rewards. Make sure you have plenty of time to kill before starting a Runescape session as it is harder to stop than you might think.
Online slots
If you are lucky enough to live in a state where online slots are legal, such as Pennsylvania, Delaware, or New Jersey, head to your preferred website to play video slots. Some states have also included sports betting as part of their online gambling offerings.
Gambling sites are optimized for mobile use so you can discreetly use your phone to enjoy a game of blackjack, poker, roulette, or baccarat if that is your fancy, or choose from thousands of slots games.
Match three games
While many of us do not want to admit it, match-three games are the perfect way to kill time when you have some. So, top up your reusable coffee cup and get ready for some fun.
There are hundreds to choose from and one to suit anyone’s preferences. People tend to prefer games with some additional interactivity, where rewards from each game are used to complete tasks like Gardenscapes. Candy Crush remains a firm favorite since nothing is quite as satisfying as watching those bombs go off and clear the board.
World’s Biggest Pac-Man
Yes, you enjoy your work, but that does not mean you do not like a bit of downtime. Harking back to the dawn of video games, those of us who grew up with Pac-Man find playing this game a nostalgic trip down memory lane.
It is gaining favor with younger players too, maybe because their parents introduced them to it. Played on a browser, World’s Biggest Pac-Man reintroduces players to its predecessor’s famous mazes. There are hundreds of thousands of them, and players can also design and publish their own.
