FREE Full-Version Games for Download

Indulging in some form of harmless escapism is necessary once in a while just to give one’s mind a break.  I usually play computer games, usually online.  The kids are quite adept at finding downloadable games.  For a while our computer was cluttered with all these Free Trial downloads.  Now that they are older, the kids know that downloading Free Trial games are not worth the time, the disk space and the frustration when the trial is over just when things got interesting.  We only download full version games now, and if they are free, the better!

Well, what Amazon.com is offering are full versions of three FREE games:

• Build-A-Lot
• Jewel Quest II
• The Scruffs

The original Jewel Quest was one of my most favorite games.  I actually bought the mobile version and played it on my cell phone a lot.  Jewel Quest II is a fancier, improved version of it.  I have tried Jewel Quest II on the XBOX 360 and online and the graphics are so much better compared to the original. 

I have never tried either Build-A-Lot or The Scruffs, but I downloaded them as well.  I am looking forward to playing these games this weekend!
