A lot of people seem to think that geeks have an encyclopedic knowledge of video games, but that’s not true. Just because somebody enjoys playing online games, that doesn’t mean that they know the name of every single game in existence.
If you are a self-professed geek, then there’s a very strong chance that there are a lot of video games that you have never heard of before. You might be pleased to learn that some of these games could actually earn you a bit of money.
This post will explore some top exciting games that all geeks should try:
Bingo
Bingo is by far one of the world’s most popular online games because it can yield huge rewards. Out of all of the bingo games available online, Bingo Cash is one of the most popular. According to an in-depth Bingo Cash review, Bingo Cash is a game that’s great for casual gamers who want to earn a little bit of money on the side. In addition to being able to play bingo online, it is also possible to play bingo offline. Bingo halls can be found in nearly every town and city in Europe and North America.
Poker
Poker is another popular game, although, unlike bingo, it’s possible to make an absolute fortune playing it. If you are an online gamer, then poker tournaments are a great idea. Online poker tournaments give you the opportunity to play against other poker players. If you are particularly skilled, then you can leverage your skills to win each game. It might be worth doing some research online if you intend on playing poker so that you can improve your skills as much as possible. There are plenty of guides and videos online, explaining how people can improve at poker.
Roulette
Roulette is a popular online casino game. It is a game of chance like bingo, so unlike poker one cannot improve one’s skills by watching online videos and reading online guides. The thing that people love most about poker is that it is possible to make an absolute fortune playing the game, depending on the bets that one places. If you are going to take up roulette and intend on playing it to make some quick cash, then know your limits. Don’t spend more than you can afford to lose. Roulette can be very addictive.
Blackjack
Blackjack is another card game like poker, or solitaire, except it isn’t a game of skill, except it isn’t a game of skill. Blackjack is more of a game of endurance. People who play blackjack and make money from it regularly have to be able to control themselves. It’s a game of pure odds. If you have no self-control, then you likely won’t perform very well at blackjack, because you won’t be able to hold back from hitting when you should be holding. The aim of blackjack is to beat the dealer. You can play it online or offline, though playing it online is a lot more fun and more comfortable.
Video Slots
Video slots are also a lot of fun. The thing with video slots is that they are extremely unpredictable. It’s impossible to hone one’s skills and improve at them, you just have to hit the go button and let them do their own thing. Slots can be a very lucrative way of earning money, but because video slots are purely a game of chance, you should research the specific game provider’s odds before playing. Researching the game provider’s odds will give you a better chance of winning when you play. The more favorable the odds, the more likely that you are to win.

Monopoly
Moving away from casino games and onto other games that you might want to play, Monopoly should be at the top of your list. It’s worth mentioning before continuing that many online casinos have their Monopoly-styled games, but these are not being referred to here. Actual online Monopoly is what this post is talking about, where no money can be won. Monopoly is a lot of fun. You are able to play it online against other people, or you can play it with friends and family. Monopoly is free-to-play online.
Quizzes
Quizzes are also a lot of fun. The internet’s certainly not short on quizzes, there are quite literally tens of thousands of them. If you are going to play online quizzes, then it’s always more fun to do this with one’s friends or loved ones. If you have any friends or loved ones that are into quizzes, then invite them to play along with you. Make sure that you select a quiz that you can actually win. A lot of people choose quizzes on subjects that they know nothing about, which really detracts from how enjoyable they can be. If you don’t have any particular interests, choose a general knowledge quiz.
Chatroulette
Chatroulette is a site that has existed for a very long time. Most internet users are familiar with Chatroulette, or sites like it. Chatroulette isn’t a game necessarily, but it is very fun. It involves setting up your webcam and then talking to strangers. Because you never know who you are going to speak to, the game is compared to roulette (because it’s a game of chance). Chatroulette is completely free to use, although there is a paid version that you can download which gives you greater control over who you talk to.
Video Games
If you are more interested in video games, then you should play them instead. It’s hard to pinpoint specific video games and recommend them because everybody’s interests are different. If you like online quest-based games, then you could consider World of Warcraft or RuneScape. If you prefer shoot-em-up games, then the Call of Duty franchise is very popular, as is Grand Theft Auto. Whatever game you select, make sure that it’s one that you are interested in and will enjoy playing. There’s no point wasting your time playing boring and uninteresting games.
If you consider yourself to be a geek and enjoy playing online games, then it’s always a good idea to broaden your horizon and try out games that you have never heard of before. Many of this post’s games can be used to earn money, so if you’re short on cash, they are a great solution.
