For those of us suffering mild overdoses of high resolution graphics and jaw dropping eyecandy, a respite from the onslaught. Kurnik (aka PlayOK) is a free to play online games website featuring classic board and card games.
Tired of facing the screaming hoards on Playstation Network or Xboxlive, then settle down to a friendly game of checkers, ludo, mahjong, perhaps even a racy hand of gin rummy, against a (hopefully) live opponent. Feel like running in the face of copyright infringements, then try Kurnik's version of Scrabble (Literaxx,Literaki)and Monopoly (Blogpoly,Netopol).
Originally a Poish only website, founded in 2001 by Marek Futrega, Furnik now supports over 30 classic games, is available in 34 languages including Japanese, Chinese and Greek and has a current ranking at 10,085th on Alexa. A simple sign up process lies between you and an evening of relaxation.

An amazing discovery dear friend.
Racy you say?
(blush's..) well I did spend alot of time next to your graybox...
I see. It's comparatively racy then. Phew.
Indeed! amazing the fun you can have with a simple deck of cards... gin rummy a little like strip poker but without the disrobing....
...jeech I am getting old...:(
Yes, and it's rather cold for this time of year too. How's the back?
the back is much better thank you my friend :) choice of operation or swiming, so I chose swimming, looked easy.... and I only had to be rescued once!
(shuffles cards...)
Right, that's reassuring I suppose.
(deal cards....)
..well yes, though I suspect my choice of a large yellow duck as a floatation device is an error in judgement.. :(
Aha. Yes, hmm. Judgement. Yes, one can err.
(....)
Frankly, how many 5s are there in this deck?
..why 5 of course, 2 twos, 3 threes.. etc. it's a standard blogger deck...! ?
? wot don't tell me you have all the 5's
(throws down dealt hand...) :(
see your luck hasn't diminshed any... I'll make us a nice cup of tea...
(heads to kitchen mumbling under his breath...)
..with some heavy duty sleeping tablets...
