If you are a gaming fanatic like me – and I mean the type who works when he is not playing and not the other way round – then you will be very familiar with the situation I am going to describe. Do you not feel that your games get over so very soon, and you have to run to the store to purchase new titles? And there you have to go through that typical period of apprehension when you do not know whether the game will be as good as its cover. Quite a bit of frustration, is it not? What you need is a source where you can actually play your games before you can purchase them. I am not joking, actually! Such a place does exist!

I used to finish my games within about five days, howsoever much difficult they might be. And considering the prices of these games, you can very well imagine the size of the hole they were burning in my wallet. There was my dad – yelling off at my habit, and here I was – so addicted to games I just could not give up. Then, one day, my dad himself called me to him. He asked, 'Sean, have you heard of Skunk Studios?'

Well, my dad had actually taken the trouble to talk to his friends who had game-crazy kids like me to find a solution to this problem. And I must say, it was indeed among the most intelligent things he ever did for me. Skunk Studios is… wow!!! It is a game download site, actually. You know, the kind where you can download games for free, play for an hour or so, and then see if you want to purchase it or not. That is what Skunk Studios is.

But, when I say wow, I mean wow. This one site has as many as 400 games to choose from, and of all kinds that too. You can browse by category, see the pictures of the games as they will look when you play them, and you can read their descriptions. You can also see how many other guys have downloaded or purchased the games. Then, you can make the download yourself. Play on for the demo period – which is absolutely free – and then see if you actually like it or not.

The games on this site are… mesmerizing to say the least. Simply unputdownable (I do not know if that word applied to games or not, so excuse me). I have played Cake Mania thrice over and I can do the whole lot again. And Gutterball keeps me hooked on for hours. But do you know what these games cost? About one-tenth the price of the games I used to purchase earlier from the retail stops.

Then one day, I got the final indication of the popularity of Skunk Studios. When I returned from my school that day, I saw my dad playing Mahjongg, which he has recently downloaded from the site. And dad does not know how to use the keyboard even!

So, what are you holding out there for? It is free to review, go for it.Visit Skunk Studios here and see what you have been sorely missing out from your gaming life up until now.
