What a childish variety of games!

My most favorite games are GONE (Bryx, Score, and a half dozen others). The “new” games seem tedious and dull.

The prizes are few and often cheap (remember three pages’ worth?)

I know we should appreciate that the games exist at all, but I’m not impressed with their value. (I miss the days of the cryptograph puzzles.)

I don’t think anyone is happy with the games, points, or prizes in the HSN Arcade! However, do you know that most of these games can be played on multiple other sites online? Even the ones that have been removed here. You probably won’t be able to win points (what does that get you, anyway?), but you can just play for fun and the challenge. AARP is one site that has games you can play for points, but they don’t always have prizes, either. Just Google the game and check out the different sites to see which one you might want to use. Have fun!

  What happened to the arcade? Flip out hasn’t worked in weeks, Metro Match gone, puzzle winners from well over a month ago listed, etc. Are they thinking about shutting the arcade down completely? Seems like that to me, or they are just very slack.

I agree with everyone. Loved Metro Match, it’s a brain game. Flip out is not challenging enough. Need more brain games.

I agree w/you, Insomniac! Score was one of my faves too and especially miss Bryx! Loved the music and graphics; looked forward every night to getting on late to play. I like Metro Match too for keeping my memory sharp. I agree about the prizes too…it’s so disappointing. Sweet Shuffle was suggested as a replacement for Bryx, but it won’t load! Plus, it looks like Mahjonng Candy.

I agree about the games. I loved Metro Match. It was a simple matching game but challenged my memory which is why I play them. I am older and need to keep my memory active and I was pretty good at that game. I don’t like the childish ones either or so complicated I can’t figure them out. I might have to quit too. I also agree about the prizes. They used to have 3 pages with good prizes. Now it might just be a bar of soap etc.

Also, the points values on these games are not worth the time!!!
