Game Cheats List

There used to be road sign bingo and car bingo.
These would have sliding doors and when you spoted a make of a car you moved your door closed, same with road sign bingo.

Also magnetic checkers and chess.

Also now you can buy some fairly inexpensive hand held electronic games.

I think I'm giving away my age, yes before Game Boy and Atari Lynx even existed, I used to go on trips with those games I mentioned above, oh and the triangle peg game I remember that, try to end up with just one peg.
Luckily I'm not that old I had my Atari Lynx, my Game Boy and my Sega Game Gear when they all came out.
Before those I had the games like you can get now pretty cheap, and they are better now than what I had, so you should find somethings without breaking the bank. KB Toy has games and so does Radio Shack, also K-Mart.

Here are some games I've played on the road:

The alphabet game:

Each of you has to find every letter of the alphabet, in order. The first one to the end of the alphabet wins. You get the letters off billboard and road signs (you have to decide ahead of time if you want to count license plates and sides of moving vehicles). "Q" and "Z" are usually pretty hard to find, so if you know a Dairy Queen or Zaxby's is coming up, try to get to that letter. ("X's" are easy, cuz of all the Exit signs.)

HORSE

This is a fun word game. One player starts with any letter. Then you alternate turns. You must have a word in mind each time you add a letter, but you do NOT want to end a word. Here's a sample:

Player 1: d
Player 2: du
Player 1: dut
(Player 1 is thinking of "duty," and thinks Player 2 will now have to finish the word with a "y.")

Player 2: duti
(Player 2 was too clever, and is going for "dutiful," which player 1 will have to end.)

Player 1: dutie
(Ah! Player 1 is thinking of "duties," which Player 2 will have to end.)

Player 2: duties. Ends word, gets an H. The next time she loses, she gets an O. First one to spell HORSE loses.

If you say a letter and are challenged, you have to come up with a word, or you get the HORSE letter. For example, if your opponent says "S" and you say "J," she can challenge you and if you don't have a word that begins "SJ," you get a letter.

Celebrity Initials

There are two versions of this. One is the 20-questions game. One of you comes up with a celebrity, and gives the initials to the other. The other gets to ask 20 yes-no questions to discover who the mystery person is. The celebrity can be real or fake, human or otherwise, but the celebrity must be someone you're reasonably sure the other has heard of. So, Buggs Bunny (fake non-human) is okay, but your second grade teacher is not. The best strategy to play this game is to go from the general to the specific. For example:

If the initials are J.D.

Is this a human being? Yes
Is it female? No
Is he living? No
Was he a politician? No
Was he an entertainer? Yes
Was he a singer? Yes
Was he in a band? No
Performed solo? Yes
Did he play an instrument? Yes
Piano? No
Guitar? Yes
Did he die within the last ten years? No
Did he die within the last 25 years? Yes
Did he die a natural death? No
Did he die in an accident? Yes
Was it a car wreck? No
A moving vehicle accident of any kind? Yes
Plane crash? yes
John Denver? Yes

Some questions can be tricky, like if they had asked if the person was an actor. John Denver did act in "Oh! God!" but he wasn't known for that. Likewise, if someone did Sonny Bono, they'd have to say he was a politician.

The other celebrity initial game, you two find letters, like on signs and stuff, and shout out two that are in a row. You'll have to do the whole word, two letters at a time. The first one to come up with a celebrity with those initials wins the round. For example, you see a sign that says "CAUTION" and someone says the word. You go through it:

CA: Christina Applegate
AU: Al Unser
UT: Uma Thurman
TI: Rapper T.I.
IO: I'm stumped.
ON: Ozzie Nelson

(Btw, I play this game in my car alone during heavy traffic. Another game is to try to make words out of people's license plate letters. The words have to have the letters in the same order. So, if you see LVT, your word could be Levitate or Alleviate, etc.)

Another fun game, although this is better as an ice-breaker for a small group of people who don't know each other, is "Two Truths and a Lie." But you and your friend can play it, too.

Two Truths and a Lie

One of you tells the other two truths and a lie about yourself. Your friend gets to ask you three questions about each, and has to decide which is the lie. Your truths can be shockingly revealing, or mundane. For example, your truths could be, "I once left a restaurant without paying," or "I slept with your husband." Your lie can be anything, but you want to fool your friend into thinking it's the truth, so don't say something too outrageous. You also want to be careful you don't pick a lie you know nothing about. Like, don't say you're a black belt in Karate, especially if your friend knows anything about Karate.

And of course, there's always the cow game. You each get one point for each cow you pass on your side of the car. You accumulate points throughout your trip, but when you pass a grave yard, whoever's side it's on loses all their cow points and has to start over.

Have fun, and be sure to stop and see the Corn Palace out West!

The Supreme Court, Harvard professor Gates' arrest, the mother in Texas who killed her newborn, Bill Gates getting off of Facebook because he had too many friends, the economy, China's visit to Washington last week. My husband and I talked about these things over the last week.

I Love this Video and also I checked out your Channel. Very interesting! If you need any help getting this Video and your Channel exposed to where it is on top in all the searches. I found this site called tubeviews.(net) that has took my breath away. I’m working on my 4th Channel now, this one I just made. My Videos are getting so many hits now. Check it out and keep in touch.

Lets Go Raptors, Finally Back On Track.Everyone Is Pitching In, Especially Bargnani. I Dont Care If The Raptors Dont Make The Playoffs, As Long As They Play Hard Like They Did Today.!

How about as you are driving divide the car into sides….driver side is the left side of road, passenger side is right side of road. Driver side start with A and find a road sign that starts with A, then passenger side do the same….you can't move on till you find your sign. whoever finishes first….wins. Or, starting with A name songs whose titles start with the letter…A is America the Beautiful…..then you have to sing a few bars……next person gets B…..you can do this with Bands also. And finally, my friends favorite is give someone two options……cats or dogs? No rules, no suggestions….whatever the individual brings to the game is what they bring. I might say dog cause i love dogs or i might say dogs because I hate dogs. it gets really crazy the longer you play, sometimes a little naughty and always very funny.

what r u talking about he was still playing

Hah. Been there done that. I got sick pretty easily. Laptop runs hot, makes you sweat. Lighting makes it hard to see. Single player games. I'd go for Diablo 2, Diablo 1, Rollercoaster Tycoons, Blockland.

Bargnani has arrived!

triano made bargs sit in the last minutes.. why??

For kids or adults? Card games and those travel chess/checkers games are often good. Singing can be a lot of fun with kids. "I Spy" is a classic for kids, too.

The Band Name Game.

The first person says a band, the next person names a band beginning with the last letter of the previous band and so on..

For example: Aerosmith… 'H'… Hedley…'Y'… Yellowcard
and so on, as people can't think of a band name with that letter they are disqualified until there is one person left.

the laughing game
* one person tries to make the rest laff
* whoever laffs first has to be the person
* try it in teams
OK it's weerd but strangely fun

Raptors RLZ!
