Commuting is always a boring event in people’s lives, but it doesn’t need to be that way. The technological world is expanding with every passing day and with it, the amount of apps that you can download.
Mobile free slots and and social games are just some of the ways in which some people divert their attention on a journey as they are great to have some easy fun with and keep you occupied for hours – or as long as the journey.
More and more game ideas alongside applications are being created with the aim of entertaining a greater number of people on their journeys. So, long commuters, why not take a look at these five?
Name That Song
Rather similar to that classic British TV show Name That Tune, one person says a popular song lyric in their normal voice and the other passengers must guess what song the lyrics come from.
Though it may sound mundane and relatively simple, see how difficult it is to recognise lyrics without the accompanying music. Plus, it is always a laugh to see how weirdly different some lyrics are out of their song context.
People Watching
Everyone loves to watch people don’t they? Well, what better time to do this than when you are bored and in serious need of entertainment?
In a car, on a bus, a train or even a plane, fix your eyes – preferably not in a creepy manner – on a particular person. Think about what they do, where they are going or even things as left field as how many pets they have. Create a story and keep adding to it.
Car bingo
Everyone loves getting a full house at bingo, well, car bingo gives you the opportunity to do just that on the road. If travelling in a car, come up with a list of vehicle types that all passengers will search for. The winner will be, of course, the one that crosses every car off its list. A prize could also be included for the winner.
Spelling Bee
Learn whilst you travel is a good slogan, but it can be done with the spelling bee competition. One person needs to be the judge – preferably someone impartial – and search for words that are hard to spell on their smartphone.
The other players need to spell the words correctly to win. Simple, but effective; if the umpire is competent in their role, the game will be a success.
