Despite its old school design, this site provides some fairly decent Java script games that are easy to use and fun to play. So if you have some time, you should definitely take a look.
The Basic Rundown
A Game A Day is one of the simplest sites that I’ve ever had the pleasure of using – no sign-ups, no hassles, no contract statements that involve me selling my future firstborn. It does exactly what would be expected of any good site, and that is for it to do what it is supposed to do. All it takes is for you to head over to the website once every single day to make this whole thing work.
The premise surrounding A Game A Day is that it provides one simple little brain teaser for you to play each day out of the year. Sometimes it’s just a question. Other times it’s simply a puzzle. Typically, these games are not very long seeing that they only involve one single problem, so this is great for people that are on the go. However, some of them actually seem to loop, so you can play once your brain has been fed. Basically, if you can check Facebook once a day, then you can play A Game A Day, too.
Raise The Bar
The games for the month are available at all times, so if you’ve missed a few days (or you want to skip ahead) then you’re in luck. However, if the month has already passed, then you are only able to play for the given month. The games come in two flavors – Level I and Level II – and while the first one is always good for casual players, the second one is just a smidgen harder. Dive in if you have a vast vocabulary and a mind with a knack for complex thinking. Granted, the games aren’t hard, and I believe anyone can figure them out. It’s just that one level might take a little more time out of your day than the other.
Most of the games are word puzzles dealing with antonyms or synonyms with a fill-in-the-blank type of format. However, there are quite a few meant to build up your word, geography, and visual knowledge. Some of the many games are listed below.
- How Do You Say? – Match up a common phrase in five different languages.
- Inquiring Cartographer – Identify countries on small land masses.
- Match Ups – Match symbols or images with their meanings.
- Antonyms – Simply write all the antonyms of the words you are given.
At first glance, the games may seem a little corny or too easy. However, they are great for a simple mind tease once a day, and they can get the brain going.
Conclusion
Like I said, this site is incredibly simple to use, and it serves its purpose well. The games are constantly updating, so you know that you’ll get something different each and every time.

If you’re using this on a mobile phone and need to set limits on how much data you’re consuming with this app, you can set file size limits for all the files you’re transferring whether they going from or to your Android device.
If you’re watching your limits, it’s probably good to uncheck the Instant Upload option, which uploads and downloads changes in any modified files in real-time (pro version only). You can also set Dropsync to sync every 15 minutes, 1 hour to once a day.
