Rocket Golf



Rocket Golf is a fun golf game for Mac, but with a twist. Unlike traditional 3D golf games Rocket Golf is 2.5D. The graphics are 3D but the gameplay is 2D. To hit the ball, you press and hold the mouse button and aim. An arrow shows the power and direction of the hit. When you release the button, the ball is hit. You have to make it to the hole while avoiding obstacles such as water. Don't forget to take wind into account when you hit! The $15 game comes with 2 courses consisting of 18 holes each. You then can purchase the other 2 courses for $5 each. You also can save money by purchasing the full game with all the courses for only $20. When playing you can play with 1 to 4 players. Rocket Golf is a fun game to play to waste time.

Bridge Construction Set


Bridge Construction Set is a very fun, addictive game. It starts easy but gets much, much harder as you go on. The point of the game is to build a bridge across a gap. You are given different materials on different levels. You also have to build bridges that open so boats can travel under on some levels. The games has good physics and is very fun to play. The game comes with lots and lots of levels to play and also lets you create your own. This is a very fun and educational game that I highly recommend.
