157052 2003-07-02 22:37:00 I am looking for some good website addresses with good games for children. freelunchdesign.com has some great ones but my son (age 7) would love some more games to play in the school holidays.

Can anyone suggest any???

157053 2003-07-02 23:23:00 I would recommend you download some classic shareware games for your kids off the net, like Commander Keen, Duke Nukem, Crystal Caves, and other such games which could run on any PC!

They're not high-end on the Visual side, but they've provided many people endless hours of fun!

Search google for them

However, if your kids dont find them very 'playable' games, or get bored easily, you might want to invest in purchasing a racing game of some sort. This way you dont generally have to worry about R-Rated things on a racing car game.

There are others out there if Racing isnt what your kids enjoy.

The Sims even is a great game, that even my younger 5yr, 8yr, 12, and 15 yr old sibblings enjoy sitting in front of for hours on end, Just dont forget to grab the expansion pack's to add to the gameplay ;-) Its great if your kids want to have some friends over, they can all create their own family :-)

Hope this helps

Cheers

157057 2003-07-03 04:20:00 Will your son be permitted to play online games? There is a good selection of old favourites here (www.fhm.com). tommy (2826)
157058 2003-07-03 05:23:00 Warblade is a really cool game and I hate to say it but addictive, would be suitable for any age group and is free.
