You may see people playing on their smartphones wherever you go, but before the phones and tablets become so readily available, most games were played on a PC. Some people still prefer to play games that way, and there are still games that have been played on a PC for years, as well as new ones appearing all the time. Here is a selection of just a few that maybe you might like to try next time you sit down at a computer.

Bejeweled
Bejeweled must be one of the most played browser games ever and a classic to many casual gamers. Originally released in 2001, it is a game that all generations can play, and they have done for many years. Kids that were young at the time often thought of it as a game for their parents, until they started to play. Whole families would compete against each other, and that still happens today. It is a game that always makes you think you will do better next time, and that is part of it appeal. Once you have tried to beat everyone else, you know you can do better and have to try again.
Madalin Stunt Cars 3
There has been no end of browser racing games developed, but Madalin Stunt Cars 3 has to be one of the best. There is a large choice of really cool cars to race in, and you can play on your own or join a multiplayer game. You control your car with your keyboard, such as the spacebar being your handbrake and pressing c to change the view from the cameras. This is a game that will keep you enthralled for hours of fun.
Frog Fractions
Weird, humorous and unpredictable is the best way to describe Frog Fractions. It is a masterpiece that has you passing through vastly varying stages. It can be very difficult and very stupid all at the same time and is a great deal of fun for anyone to play.
Anything From Cartoon Network or Adult Swim
With the advent of smartphones and the development of apps, some PC games producers disappeared. Because of the power of TV and lots of dollars spent on adverting, one survived though and is still releasing new games. Cartoon Network and its Adult Swim promote their shows through their games and they currently have more than 200 of them for you to choose from. It can be very nostalgic to browse the Cartoon Network game site and find games for the programs you used to watch when you were a child.
Slither.io
Eat as many dots as you can to make your snake grow in length, but avoid the other snakes because if you touch one you die. The longer your snake gets the more points you win, and this simple but addictive game will have you trying to reach the top level again and again.
Playing games on a PC might seem dated to some, but they can be a great way to pass an hour or two, without being bombarded on notifications on your smartphone.
