Howdy gamers.
This month we've chosen a couple games that just might help get you out and about in the real world. After, of course, you hone your skills with some practice against virtual opponents.

Maybe you learned to play
chess years ago, but don't currently have anyone to play against. No worries.
The online option allows you to choose the difficulty level, opt to play as a beginner or pro, and allow threats to show as you're learning to perfect your moves against the computer.

Just click on a chess piece and you'll see the options to make your play. All moves and points scored are tracked on the sides of the game board.
More than 600 million people around the world play chess. Why shouldn't you?

Bridge can be ... a
little complicated. There's bidding, tricks, trump suits and contracts. It's a lot to remember.
So while you're learning, ease the pressure by playing with a virtual partner. They won't yell at you and, in this online game, even the opponents are always smiling.

The game begins with bidding for the number of tricks your team can win. The highest bid is the contract and the person who made the bid is the declarer.
The declarer plays both their cards and their partner's cards for the hand and must earn the number of tricks bid, plus six. That's lots of responsibility, but don't stress. Even if you lose three hands in a row, your virtual playing partner won't change expressions (😁).
Thanks for reading and, as always, thanks for playing.
