I'm posting this question on behalf of Helen Mandl, Secondary Teacher Librarian in Tanzania. She's looking for ways her school can participate in this year's International Games Day @ your library event, and I know GameRT members can offer helpful suggestions. Thanks!
We are a secondary school in Tanzania and would like to try some computer gaming. We have three older computers and internet access that is not always available. Could you recommend some computer games that could be downloaded for free and loaded onto these computers. Something that doesn't need high end memory, latest operating system etc.
It would be good to have something where there was a score or time at the end so we could have a competition amongst students to see who got the best time/score etc. Something that both boys and girls would enjoy and that didn't take too long for each competitor to complete.
Due to our computer limitations, we haven't really gotten into any computer gaming but would like to try it out on this day.
