Hi all,
My Nans been using flash based browser games and really likes jigsaws, but also board games and card games too.

The problem with a lot of these sites it's that they are dirty and advertising ridden.

I've done a bit of googling but can't really find a 'game package' to buy that contains this sort of thing without being some dodgy flash site.

Microsoft store is a mess too so if such a thing exits I'd like to buy a big pc game pack.

Anyone know of such a thing?

Thanks

I wast thinking a steam account, but trying to get her head around how steam works, I think it would be too much effort.

She's 90yo, and I find the steam interface too busy and convoluted so she'd have no chance.

Maybe but she's not going to be able to navigate or understand steam.

I can remote in via team viewer and sort things out so she doesn't have to deal with steam but I'd rather just buy a standalone game package..

Maybe steam is the only sensible choice for the situation.

How about.. it doesn't review well but for less than £2 secondhand might be worth a punt.

If her PC has a DVD drive, I have just what you're looking for.
PM me your address and I'll send you a present for her...

Any chance she could switch to a tablet? iPad's are easy to use and plenty of puzzle games in the app store
