School time Memories are always there to cherish. Playing games on paper while the teacher is present in the classroom is what everyone remembers. This was one of the games I played most of the time with friends. The game is simple yet engaging. You have to connect all the balls (dots on the paper) with a line. The line can be drawn with the use of a joystick. Let's play all the levels and break the records !!!!.
