I have wandered around the free games section of this website for a while and found some real oddball games. Among them are the games where you play darts, or bowl, or kick penalties.

I myself have to admit that I am not a fan of them, as I find them to just be so odd and pointless. Of course I probably should not be allowed to make this judgement, as I am hopelessly addicted to Hi-Lo (the crack cocaine of online gambling).

Here is an example for you to try: http://www.casinolistings.com/games/playtech/free-penalty-shootout-game

Do you like these games? If so, why? Why not?

I just played this game. I won 2.40 first turn. I think this is a quick way to lose money fast. I didn't even know that game was here. I have played a lot of the games here. I like the animated ones a lot.

The one you linked is not very fun to me. Redundant, boring..... I haven't played near as many games here as LuckyMe, but there are a few that are really fun, including some she recommended or mentioned to me. What I do like about the games here is that I would not have the opportunity to ever play some of them, due to the casinos not accepting U.S. players, so now I know some of what I am missing and maybe what I have to look forward to someday? ~crosses fingers~

I also found it fun when you used the games right here for the Scavenger Hunt, because that introduces members to what is here.

I can't say I am a big parlour game fan. They tend to be sort of one play things - I play it to see what it is like then move on. It annoys me that you have games like darts and soccer etc and you can't really use any skill in playing them.

Always play it safe! Consult our list of rogue casinos and warnings before depositing.

I would get bored easily if there's not that much interaction. Sorry it's not a game for me.

Exactly my thoughts Ubetcha. I really can't see who would play this game, but apparently there is a market as the developers keep making these games.
