Σταυρολεξίες του Ζοο.gr is a multiplayer word game where 2 players can play simultaneously. The goal of the game is to form valid words horizontally or vertically based on some of the 7 letters you have at the bottom of the screen. The game board consists of 15x15 slots where you can place letters. The player who plays first must place their word so that one of its letters is in the central part of the board. Players take turns, and there is a characteristic arrow indicator showing which player is playing at any given moment. You have two minutes to choose the word you will place on the board. The total number of letters is 104. At the beginning, each player is dealt 7 letters, which are automatically refreshed as you use them, so you always have 7 letters until there are no more unused letters. Rules You can only place a new word on the board in a valid way if it connects (even through one of its letters) with an existing word on the board. Also, the letters you place must either all be horizontal or all be vertical. If, during the placement of the letters, more than one new word is formed (horizontally or vertically), all new words must be valid. You can also modify an existing word by adding one or more letters to create a new valid word. If the word is invalid or the placement of letters doesn't comply with the above rules, an appropriate message will appear, and you will have to try again within the allowed time. If you fail to form a word within your two-minute time limit, you lose your turn. If you can't form any valid word, click "Pass." You then have the right to replace any number of letters with others, as long as there are unused letters available. Points Each letter has a specific value (1, 2, 4, 8, or 10 points), which is recognized based on the color of the letter according to the model located to the right of the board. When you form a word, you earn points equal to the sum of the values of its letters. If, during the placement of the word, any letter is placed on the 2Γ or 3Γ indicator, the value of that letter is automatically doubled or tripled, respectively, in the point calculation. Similarly, if any letter in the formed word is placed on the 2Λ or 3Λ indicator, the value of the entire formed word is automatically doubled or tripled, respectively, in the point calculation. The 2Γ, 3Γ, 2Λ, and 3Λ indicators are only valid when forming the first valid word. If you modify an existing word that already contained such an indicator, you won't receive the bonus again. If, during the placement of letters, more than one valid word is formed (horizontally and vertically), you receive points for all the newly formed words, along with any possible bonuses from the respective indicators. If, during a turn, you use all 7 of your letters, you receive an additional 50 points as a bonus, in addition to the points calculated based on the above rules.

This is a different quiz game... Each game has 5 question from different categories, all questions have a number as the answer, there are no options to choose from, you have to type the number you think the right answer is. The game is played online by 2 players, the first player (creator of the game) answers the questions of the first round, waits until the second player answers them also, to end the game. The player that has answered the closest number to the right answer increases his score by 1. That means, you don't have to know the right answer for every question to win, you can guess and with a little bit of luck you will be closer to the right answer.
