What games can you play on your computer? What can you play via correspondence on VKontakte. Thanks for your time

What games can you play on your computer? What can you play via correspondence on VKontakte. Thanks for your time

Why do we all love online games so much? First of all, for the opportunity to play together. After all, this is where we can gather a team of friends - or strangers - and go beat some particularly powerful boss. Or, on the contrary, go to PvP and have fun with the characters of other players. Or maybe you want to duel with someone? This is also possible. There are many different MMOs, and there are plenty of options for interacting with other players.

But if you need a game that can be played by two (three, four) on one computer? What should all hotseat lovers play? It’s more complicated here, and the choice, at first glance, is not so great. But nonetheless, games you can play together on the same PC, not so little. And we are ready to provide you with our top 10 such toys.

10. FIFA 15

This game can definitely be recommended to all fans of sports simulators. And to recommend it to football fans... Perhaps it’s simply pointless - they are probably already familiar with it, and very well. It has everything - realistic physics, beautiful graphics, an interesting career mode. There is also a hotsit mode - that is, you can play together with one keyboard or using joysticks. Overall, I highly, highly recommend it.

9. Grid 2

It was impossible not to include this magnificent race from Codemasters in this top. It has everything a good racing simulator needs - really high-quality graphics, excellent motion physics (which is especially good when you fly off the track again), easy-to-learn controls, which, however, are not simplified beyond the necessary. And, as a bonus, the opportunity to tear apart a beautiful sports car almost into parts. And, in addition, there is a split-screen mode, thanks to which the game can be played just fine by two people. In general, play for your health.

8. Warhammer 40,000: Kill Team

Recommended, first of all, to all fans of the Warhammer universe. Or for those who like dynamic action games in which the screen is constantly splashed with something red. Here we have four classes to choose from - two melee specialists, and two marksmen. And we also have a task - to clear the huge ship on which the orcs are flying to the Empire from everything, at least theoretically living. We play in third person mode. The campaign can be completed by two people, and in addition, you can try the survival mode (also for two). It is available on those maps that you have already opened during the course of the storyline, and is designed to test your strength. In general, there are no special frills, but the game is addictive.

7. Galacide

Very funny thing. To be honest, it was very difficult to determine the genre of this creation. It seems that we are controlling a spaceship - but there is no smell of simulators here. Everything happens in 2D. And the gameplay is reminiscent of some strange hybrid of Tetris and Arkanoid, and even with an admixture of classic Lines. And at the end of each level a boss awaits us. In general, I don’t know what to call it. There are several different ships, there is a cooperative. Only for one PC, but can be played by up to 4 people. And despite the weird, vague genre (or maybe because of it), Galacide is fun to play.

6. Magicka 2

It was impossible to ignore this fun arcade game. It can't boast of any incredible graphics, but that's not its main advantage. Here we have a serviceable plot based on Norse myths and sprinkled with a good dose of humor. There is an interesting magic system that can give odds to many other fantasy projects. And there is a great co-op that will allow you to while away the evening with friends. Although, I’m understating it – you’ll spend much more than one evening playing this game. Magicka 2 is one of the few games that are designed specifically for team play. There are too many enemies here for a single person. And all the delights of “friendly fire” (friendly fire, in English) can only be experienced in a cooperative. Have fun playing together!

5. Lara Croft and the temple of Osiris

Another game from the Tomb Rider series, which, however, is done quite well. The plot does not shine with particular originality - after all, only the lazy have not trampled on the topic of Egyptian myths. And in the Tomb Raider series, our heroine goes to Egypt in almost every part of the game. However, about the plot - this time Lara joins forces with another adventurer, Carter Bell, and two Egyptian gods - Horus and Isis. Together they must piece together Osiris and defeat the evil god Set. Lots of references to Egyptian mythology (the developers clearly did not neglect to study this topic) and excellent gameplay designed for several players - all this is Lara Croft and the temple of Osiris.

4.Resident Evil 6

Do we need to introduce this game? After all, Resident Evil is perhaps the standard of zombie games. Here we have beautiful graphics, for which I would like to especially thank the designers, and excellent gameplay, both dynamic and frightening, and a good plot. I must say that the developers clearly liked the idea from the fifth part of the game (you could also play there together, if that), and they decided to go further. Now we have even more interaction with partners, there are also more partners themselves, and in general, Resident Evil has become not so much about single heroes, but about well-coordinated teamwork. And then... then I’ll just recommend that you play this wonderful toy with your friends.

3. Eador: Lords of the Worlds and Eador: Creation

That's right, two games. True, they do not differ that much. To be honest, Lords of the Worlds is the same Eador: Creation, but with more beautiful graphics (in the first part it was somewhere on the level of the second Heroes of Might and Magic, and even without animation), with a shorter campaign and with some additions to the gameplay. The game should appeal to all fans of thoughtful turn-based strategies. It must be said that Eador has one drawback - it is difficult to learn. A huge tree of buildings in the castle (to be honest, even titans like Civilization are nervously smoking on the sidelines), a very interesting combat system (which can only be rivaled by King’s Bounty) - all this has to be mastered long and hard. But an interesting campaign and a well-made hotsite completely make up for this shortcoming. So, go ahead, conquerors!

2. Mortal Combat X

The tenth part of the cult fighting game has appeared on PC. As always, no censorship, only blood and cruelty on the screen. Therefore, it is better to keep small children and impressionable women away from the monitor. And don’t try to repeat all this in reality! But seriously, this game is suitable for co-op with friends like no other. There will be no co-op here - only PvP. And the emotions when your friend destroys your favorite fighter with his fatality. However, maybe everything will be different, and you yourself will wipe the noses of your bosom rivals. In general, I won’t describe Mortal Kombat for a long time, I’d rather just wish you good luck in the upcoming battles!

1. Heroes of Might and Magic III-V

Well, we’ve reached the first game in our top. To be honest, I couldn’t choose one part out of the seven that have been released so far. Heroes of Might and Magic VII was released on September 29, I haven’t played it yet. In the end, I decided to focus on three parts – the third, fourth and fifth. Briefly describe the gameplay? Well, if you are not familiar with Heroes... We choose a castle, rebuild it, gather an army and develop a hero. Heroes develop in battles. You also need to collect resources along the way, capture sources of these resources and enemy castles. And don’t forget about artifacts - they also need to be collected. Well, that's all. All parts of the series have a superbly implemented hotseat, which is why it simply could not be ignored. Oh yes, one more thing - when you gain some experience in the game - tell me which castle is the best, okay?

A lot of cool new products have been announced for this year, and some previously released games are making their way to the top of the ratings at a rapid pace.

Making a list of the best games on PC 2018 turned out to be quite difficult; many interesting projects simply didn’t fit into it!

Quick navigation:

Play by correspondence correctly.

If there is anything you can play over text with a girl, we figured it out.
For guys, it’s a good idea to learn how to communicate correctly with a girl, so as not to remain just a friend with whom you can have fun playing by correspondence. It is better when such a game takes up only a small part of the time, between real meetings, the following article will help you with this: (See.

Boredom is the scourge of the modern generation. People who grew up on computer games and gadgets don’t know at home. Most people don’t even know what to play on the computer. Meanwhile, there are many applications that are worth trying, despite the outdated graphics and outdated gameplay.

Clickers

For those who don’t want to strain their brains, but just want to keep their hands busy, there is a whole special series of clicker games. The idea is simple - you have to click on an object or enemy with the mouse as many times as possible. The main advantage of such toys is that they play with themselves. At a certain moment (usually almost at the very beginning) you get a hero who starts clicking for you. Thus, you can only observe and sometimes help your characters. on a computer from clickers?

  1. CookieClicker. You have to create a cookie production empire. This application is completely browser-based, so you do not need any additional manipulations to install it. Good for those at work.
  2. For those who have Steam, you can offer two options. The first one is Heroes Clicker. It has varied gameplay, many additional goodies, such as adventures, guilds and artifacts.
  3. The second option is more suitable for guys. Sakura clicker will immerse you in an anime world full of half-naked girls.

Of course, clickers cannot be called full-fledged games, so for those who want something more serious, we will look at other options for what to play on the computer.

Strategies

The first genre that comes to mind when talking about boredom. Different people like different genres, but strategy is what allows you to escape from reality and completely immerse yourself in the process. In all subsequent paragraphs, we will start with what to play on a weak computer.

  1. "Civilization". Any parts to your taste. One game can last up to a day; you won’t get bored playing this game.
  2. "Heroes of Might and Magic." To date, 7 parts have already been released, many chronicles and additions. If you decide to study the history of this wonderful world from beginning to end, it may take you more than one month.
  3. Disciples - the second part is not in vain recognized as a masterpiece. And lovers of good graphics should pay attention to the third.
  4. Age of wonders. Three amazing parts of the game with their own unique combat system, spells and economy.

By the way, these four games are ideal if you are wondering what to play together on one computer. The step-by-step mode in all presented applications and the “hot chair” mode will allow you to make moves one by one.

For those who prefer to play something new and alone, we can offer a new part of the game Xcom 2. The release date is scheduled for February 5, 2016. The new series is dedicated to the fight against alien invaders on an enslaved and occupied planet. Judging by the game demo videos, it will be an interesting spectacle.

Shooters

Another way to while away the evening if you have nothing to play on your computer. Unfortunately, shooters are mostly monotonous and can only interest fans of the genre. And the choice here is not particularly large.

In recent years, BioShock, Fallout 4 and Far Cry have been released. The tasks are as simple as the world - run and shoot. This is unlikely to add variety or fun, of course. The exception, however, is Fallout, which, according to experienced players, has become a simulator of a farmer and builder. The game has undergone significant changes, dialogue has been shortened and new economic opportunities have been added compared to previous parts. So experienced gamers will definitely like this game.

Horror

Another genre that has become boring to many over time. There are not so many new products in this area, and many of the old toys have probably already been used by many. Of course, you can recommend what to play on your computer when you’re bored, but it’s unlikely that you haven’t heard of these applications.

  1. Amnesia. You will wake up in an abandoned ancient castle, with no memory of how you got here or your identity. Making your way through creepy dungeons, you will have to restore your memory piece by piece in order to get closer to solving your mystery.
  2. Outlast. A classic in a new wrapper. Mental hospital, reporter and experimental patients. The game cannot be called too scary, but it will fray the nerves of impressionable natures.
  3. For those who do not have a very powerful computer, we can recommend the game SCP: Containment breach. Wandering through the dark corridors of a research center with unique, creepy and dangerous creatures, each of which requires its own tactics, will force you to abandon it many times... Only to return again to die at the hands of a plague doctor or “sculpture”.
  4. Over the past year, the horror classic Resident Evil has also received new life on the personal computer. The HD Remaster of the first part and its prequel, Zero, have finally arrived on the desktop PC, and now every player can enjoy the unforgettable feeling of the inevitability of the zombie apocalypse.
  5. However, it is not only the reissues that deserve attention. Resident Evil: Revelations 1-2 are filled with the spirit of the old parts, but at the same time they also contain a piece of the new. These applications should appeal to both old-school players and completely new players.

Adventures

Another genre that should give players pleasure, but has fallen into ugly monotony lately. Of course, there is something to see here, but everything becomes boring over time.

  1. "The Witcher". Despite its popularity, this series of games receives mixed reviews from users. Some admire the plot and gameplay, while others claim that the reason for its popularity is the large amount of eroticism and nudity.
  2. Assasin's Creed. A toy about which everyone is already tired of the news. There are many parts, but the essence of the plot always remains the same.
  3. The Elder Scrolls. A series of games better known to everyone as Skyrim. If you have already mastered the last part, we can recommend that you go back a little and install the third part on your computer - Morrowind, with the Tribunal and Bloodmoon additions.
  4. You can also add GTA 5 to this list. However, everyone has heard about this game.

Cooperative

Everything we described above were games for one person. But solo games aren't always fun. The real fun comes from those projects where you can have fun together.

  1. We'll start with the not very demanding fifth and sixth parts of the same Resident Evil. Undemanding to the computer's characteristics, they have quite decent graphics and gameplay. A fairly interesting plot will allow you to spend time together and not get bored for a couple of evenings. And additional modes will extend the pleasure for several weeks.
  2. What else can you play together on the computer? Of course, it is worth highlighting the game Left4Dead and its second part. As in the previous version, you can go through the story together with a friend or play individual modes and maps.
  3. Games of the "MOVA" genre are good for playing together. This includes the well-known Dota with League of Legend, and less popular projects, for example, the Russian Prime World.
  4. Shooting enthusiasts can indulge themselves in such projects as Warface, CS:GO and Call of Duty.
  5. If you are against all violence, you can try out a dance game called "Para Pa". Your task will be to quickly press buttons to the music and to the beat. In a cooperative, you get very beautiful paired dances and quests are easier to complete, and the effect of competition gives the toy more drive.

However, even together it’s not always interesting, especially if your partner “pulls the blanket over himself” and tries to control everything, and you are just a doll in his hands. For such cases, there are regular online games where you can chat, and no one will tell you what to do.

Online

Despite the fact that online games are currently being produced in huge quantities, they are all produced as carbon copies and are not much different from each other. But even from this mess you can always choose something to your liking.

  1. First on the list we will put a game that hit the Russian market relatively recently. We're talking about Black Desert. The modern graphics and developed economic system of this MMORPG fascinate and attract many players. The disadvantages include a small number of classes and inflated requirements for computer characteristics.
  2. Despite everything, SkyForge remains in the top in popularity. For fans of the technomagic series, this game can be a real gift. The only negative, according to player reviews, is the need to spend a huge amount of time on dungeons to earn a reputation.
  3. Already fading, but still staying afloat, "Allods" and Perfect World may be of interest to those who have worse computers.
  4. Another series of games that deserves attention are applications from the World of... family (tanks, warplanes, warships). "Tanks", "planes" and "ships" are suitable for lovers of realism and military equipment.

For girls

We will discuss this topic separately. We often encounter questions like: “What should a girl play on the computer?” Yes, the same as for the guy. We are all the same and ordinary people, we like one thing. However, we have some tips.

  1. "Nancy Drew". A series of detective games about a girl who investigates various cases. They are full of interesting puzzles that will take you many days to work on.
  2. "Sims 3". A real life simulator that is familiar to everyone.
  3. Many flash games will work. For example, the Burger Restaurant series. You play as a chef and you need to have time to serve all the customers.
  4. “Farms”, which are popular, by the way, not only among women.

But still...

If you've tried every game you can and you're still bored, try going outside. Or go to the cinema. There's nothing better than live entertainment, even if you're a computer-loving homebody. If you have become uninteresting and bored playing on the computer, perhaps you have simply outgrown this age and this hobby, and now it’s time to find a real hobby.

Have a nice time in a fun company of friends by organizing an unusual championship. Games are important not only for kids, but also for adults, because they can unite us even more. In addition, this is a great way to help new friends join the team, rather than stand alone against the wall all evening. We have selected 10 popular games that will allow you to have a good time. In our article you will find a variety of entertainment that trains the mind and develops the flexibility of the body.

When it comes to games for a large company, many people first of all remember “Mafia,” which conquered the whole world and gained many fans. To play intellectual detective, you will need a deck of special cards, which you can purchase on the Internet or draw yourself. You can also create your own map templates and order their printing in any edition. Well, if the above options do not suit you, take the most ordinary cards and agree with your friends what roles you will give them. For example: spades - Mafia, ace of spades - Mafia Boss, jack of hearts - Doctor, king of hearts - Commissioner and so on. To prevent players from spying on each other, it is advisable to wear masks or headbands as soon as the city falls asleep.



The essence of the game
There are three sides in the game: Mafia, Civilians and Maniac. The goal of the mafioso is to kill players at night and execute them during the day, posing as good heroes. The goal of the Citizens is to find and execute the Mafia. A maniac is a willful person who kills everyone indiscriminately.
Characters
The classic version has active and passive characters. The leader is a passive character who does not influence the course of the game, but coordinates the actions of all its participants.
Evil characters: Mafia (consists of the Boss and his henchmen), Maniac.
Good characters: Commissioner, Doctor, Peaceful Citizens.
Peaceful Citizens are passive players: they sleep at night, but can vote during the day, sending those they dislike to death.
The mafia wakes up at night.
The Mafia Boss chooses the victim to be hit. If the Boss dies, another mafioso takes over his post.
The maniac strikes any player at night.
The commissioner can check any player at night. If the Mafia or Maniac came to this player, the Commissioner's check scares away the criminals, saving the player's life.
The Doctor also makes his move at night and can cure anyone (one player), canceling the murderous move of the Mafia or Maniac.

Progress of the game

The game is divided into intervals - day and night. On the first day, the Host distributes cards to the players, after which the first night begins. On the first night (at the Leader’s command), the players wake up in turn, letting him know who has what role. The Mafia gets to know each other and finds out who got the role of Boss. All players wake up during the day. The presenter briefly describes the events of the past night. For example: “The Mafia struck, but the Commissioner’s visit scared off the bandits. The maniac brutally mocked his next victim all night, but the Doctor managed to save the poor fellow.” These clues allow players to figure out their opponent. This is followed by a vote, during which each player can propose a candidate for execution. By carefully studying the arguments and suspects, it is possible to identify the mafiosi, since they are usually unanimous in the day's voting. However, clever players know how to show off, accusing each other during the day (but only if a teammate is clearly not in danger of execution). After the execution, the card of the murdered person is revealed and everyone sees his role. Then night falls on the city and the active players make their move again. The game ends with the victory of the Peaceful if all Mafs and Maniacs are killed. The mafia wins when it remains in the majority. With a successful combination of circumstances, Maniac can win, being left alone with a passive player.

In addition to the classic plot, there are many different game options. We advise you to choose the most creative friend with an excellent sense of humor for the role of Host. In your competitions, you can use references to various books and films. For example, a story about vampires and werewolves has become popular, where Count Dracula plays the role of the Boss, Dr. Frankenstein cures illnesses, and the Commissioner turns into Helsing or Buffy. The more friends you have, the more characters you can introduce into the game, making it even more fun!

The exciting game “Twister” will give you a reason to laugh at the awkward poses of your friends, and at the same time exercise, because during the game you will have to bend over, reach with your arms and legs to reach multi-colored circles and try to maintain your balance.

Progress of the game

The presenter spins a special arrow, giving each player a certain pose (for example, left hand on the green circle, right foot on the yellow one, etc.). The winner is the player who manages to stay on the field, fulfilling all the orders of the leader. If a player touches the surface of the field in the wrong place, he is automatically eliminated from the game.

One of the most popular youth entertainment abroad is the game “Question or Desire.” To determine the queue of players, you can use pointers (for example, a bottle) or transfer the turn clockwise.

Progress of the game

Player A offers Player B one of two options: a question or a wish. If player B chooses a question, then player A can ask him anything. If player B chooses a wish, then player A can order anything. Married couples are better off not playing, because the questions may turn out to be too personal and tricky. This fun is best suited for single guys and girls.

The detective quiz, which develops ingenuity and imagination, is a variation of the popular game “Danetki”.

Progress of the game

The presenter describes a situation (most often it is a robbery or murder), and you, using logic and imagination, try to understand what happened. The key to the solution always lies in the problem itself.

Examples of riddles

1) The body of a man was found in the middle of the desert, with a backpack lying next to him. The man was absolutely healthy, neither hunger nor dehydration caused death. What did he die from?
The answer: the key to the solution is the backpack in which the parachute was located, and the poor guy died because the parachute did not open.

2) The body of a security guard is found in the middle of the supermarket. The man was not attacked; he did not die from illness. There was only a sign next to him. What happened?
The answer: you've probably noticed signs in stores that say "Wet floor." It is obvious that the guard slipped on the wet floor and hit himself when he fell.

3) Near the sports ground, a man was found who died under mysterious circumstances. There are no visible wounds on his body. Detectives spotted a ball nearby. What happened?
The answer: a heavy basketball, flying out of bounds, hit the poor guy in the head.


This game has many names and you are probably familiar with it. She gained particular popularity after the release of the film Inglorious Basterds.

Progress of the game

Each participant writes a name (a literary character, a movie character, or a real person) on a sticker. The sheets are distributed to the players (the player should not see the words on his sheet) and are attached to the forehead. By asking questions to other participants, the player must guess his character. Questions can only be answered “yes” or “no”.

Example of a riddle
Player 1: Am I human?
Player 2: No.
Player 1: Am I the hero of the movie?
Player 2: Yes.
Player 1: Do I spit fire?
Player 2: Yes.
Player 1: Am I the dragon Drogon?
Player 2: Yes.

Player: What time is it now?
Host: Look at the wall where the clock hangs.
Player: Is there life on Mars?

“Literball” is an adult game in the style of “who can outdrink who.” Historians claim that its various analogues have existed from time immemorial in all corners of the planet. Those wishing to measure their ability to outdrink their opponents appeared as soon as mankind invented alcoholic drinks. They say that the ancient Greeks and Peter I especially liked such games. In the CIS countries, the so-called. “Drunken checkers”, in which instead of white and black checkers they use glasses with vodka and cognac or glasses with light and dark beer. As soon as you “eat” your opponent’s checker, you need to drink the contents of this glass and remove it from the board. More advanced players prefer Drunken Chess. For the game, silhouettes of chess pieces are drawn on the glasses with a marker.

However, “Drunken Checkers” and “Drunken Chess” can only be played by 2 people, so we will consider an option for a more crowded group. We are talking about a student game called “Beer Ping Pong” (or “Beer Pong”).

Progress of the game

You will need plastic cups, a table, a ping pong ball and beer. Lots of beer. Participants are divided into 2 teams. The judge pours the beer into glasses and places them equally on both sides of the table, lining up the glasses in a triangle shape. The competitors take turns throwing the ball into the opponent's glass. If the ball lands in a glass, the player who hits drinks beer from this glass, removes the empty glass from the table and gets the right to throw again. The team with the most accuracy, having emptied all the opponent's glasses, wins.

Attention: students' favorite pastime can lead to alcohol poisoning. We advise you to take smaller glasses, so that later you won’t be excruciatingly painful for your aimlessly killed liver.
