With the daily stresses of being an IMSA student, having an outlet for all those pent-up worries is a vital part of taking care of yourself. This could refer to having a more concrete and steady hobby like scrapbooking, talking with friends or family members, or painting, but sometimes, we simply don\u2019t have the energy, motivation, or a suitable environment to take on such activities. For example, when you\u2019re doing homework in the main building, you might just want an occasional break or brain teaser in between study sessions. This article will go over a few of the incredibly popular computer games accessible right on your web browser!<\/span><\/p>\n

2048<\/span><\/h2>\n

2048<\/span><\/a> is probably the most popular computer game I\u2019ve heard about. It\u2019s a great game to pass time or de-stress and simply let your mind wander for a while. To play, simply use the arrow keys to slide the blocks together and add the numbers together; the goal is to just get the higher sum of blocks.<\/span><\/p>\n

Minesweeper<\/span><\/h2>\n

Minesweeper is another incredibly widespread game. To play, type \u201cminesweeper\u201d in the Google search bar, and the first thing that pops up should be Google\u2019s version of this game. Like 2048 (and the Instagram or TikTok recommendation algorithms), Minesweeper is also one of those programs that allows you to mindlessly manipulate the blocks and is a great time passer when you want a break.<\/span><\/p>\n

Snake: Google Maps Version<\/span><\/h2>\n

This is actually a new one\u2014usually, the \u201csnake\u201d game either refers to Slither.io or another app that has a competitive aspect to it. However, this simple Google Map\u2019s version of <\/span>snake<\/span><\/a> is an imitation of Google\u2019s original version of \u201csnake,\u201d and it\u2019s attracted quite a bit of attention from adolescents. <\/span><\/p>\n

Flappy Bird<\/span><\/h2>\n

Usually, <\/span>Flappy Bird<\/span><\/a> is downloaded on users\u2019 cell phones as an app or software on their computer, but this version of Flappy Bird is actually extremely accessible and fun to play. The goal is to press the space bar to make sure the bird flaps over or in between the obstacles.<\/span><\/p>\n

The (Famous) Dinosaur Game<\/span><\/h2>\n

Although this one is controversial, it\u2019s still one of the most iconic computer games. It\u2019s also the most accessible\u2014simply turn off your wifi, open a new tab, and start playing. (A fun fact is that in this dinosaur game, once the player gets to a certain level, the screen also changes color!)<\/span><\/p>\n

These games are one of the many awesome time-passers for study breaks or when you have some free time. Unlike most app games, you\u2019re not directly competing with anyone else, so there\u2019s no stress in finding a partner to play. However, you can still compete with others by sharing your high score and taking on separate rounds when playing together.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
