    Here's another one: @i_spy_treasure
    New I Spy puzzle every day, new clue about once an hour until someone figures out the solution. People respond with their solution using @reply. The first one to figure out the puzzle gets a small prize (starting at $10 and accumulating until a daily puzzle is solved) and, perhaps more importantly, the bragging rights.

    Check it out. It's fun...

    DVDQuotes is also kinda fun. You could win DVD's.

    Excellent post!! Twitter is like a breath of fresh air on the Social Media scene. I have been on it for just a few weeks now and I have met several interesting people. It is a platform to network with people you would like to meet in real life. Check me out!!

    People playing games on Twitter? Who knew? o_O

    Personally, I just about have enough time in the day to skim through my tweets. But there is one entertaining application that I will throw in... follow @dailylark to receive a new collective term every day, and feel free to comment back with opinion or alternatives. :)

    You missed a bunch of new word games at http://www.outwit.me - Tweet Quiz, Tweet Words, GuessWord all with Twitter pages. Clues are tweeted to followers.
  • Twitdom · 8 months ago
    Awesome! I'll add these to Twitdom - The Twitter Applications Database. We already list in excess of 600 Twitter Apps.

    We have 9 games listed at http://linkpwr.com/Iu

  • HowWhiteAmI · 8 months ago
    This isn't a 100% twitter game, but fun nonetheless. Find out how white you are at http://howwhiteami.com then compare results with other twitter users.
  • surender · 8 months ago
    Thanks for this tool. I'll try.
  • GoEverywhere Team · 8 months ago
    Oh no! I thought I was on Twitter enough as it was. Now I have games to play :) I love the idea of tweet140 - gives me something to strive for in my Tweets. And tweetbomb sounds hilarious! At least now I know what's going on if I'm ever chosen. Thanks for the tips!
  • Josh Reiner · 8 months ago

    What, no mention of the daily Twitterhood Quiz, already in Round 11 and nearing the end of Series 1? Run by me, @linnetwoods and with the rules, sponsors and scoreboard at http://linnetwoods.com/twitterhood_quiz.html which anyone is welcome to join in with!
  • Mark Kolb · 8 months ago
    Another game is @StoryTellerMe where you create never-ending poems and stories one line at a time. Just started and has several works in progress. Every time a line is added, the community that follows the site gets a reminder tweet to check the story/poem and perhaps add the next line. Never know how the story turns out. It's a shared experience at www.storyteller.me.
  • Cheryl · 8 months ago
    It's not technically a game but @TriviaBits puts out a lot of interesting "Bits"
  • Amolloy · 8 months ago
    I found http://twitter.com/ScavHunt looks like it should be fun
  • Danny Sullivan · 8 months ago
    Amazing. I didn't know that there are games available in Twitter platform. But it makes a lot of sense. I landed in this page through another fantastic Twitter application called BoilingPage ( http://www.boilingpage.com ) that tracks the hottest web pages shared in Twitter. And this article ranks #1 in their home page. Way to go!
  • mikemike · 8 months ago
    ok. thanks
  • aalaap · 8 months ago
    RandomTweet should also prove to be fun! http://randomtweet.com
  • Thiefree · 8 months ago
    I recommend @wordwhale for great anagrams!
  • Tweettery · 8 months ago
    Ahh, I was hoping to see Tweettery in this list, would have been great :)

    P.S. the bomb thing is interesting :)

    Shows you how willing people are to enage in dialogue at different levels. Note the rise of polls.

    I've been working on a Twitter game called ReallyKnow.Me. It lets you test your friends to see how well they're actually following what you say.
  • Jeff Roney · 7 months ago
    I started a music trivia game at noon pst every week day, and people can play on FB, MySpace and Twitter. More and more people are playing everyday. Its alot of fun.

  • Shannon Ramiro · 7 months ago
    A game that I have played on Twitter several times is Wordola. It involves unscrambling a series of letters to create a word. First to respond with the correct word wins. Games are played at various times of the day. Usually only one word is unscrambled at a time but sometimes there is a series of 5 words in play at once. Learn more at http://www.twitter.com/wordola.

    Games to make twittering more fun
  • Eli Owens · 6 months ago
    Word games are fun, but why not try the first Game Add-On for Twitter - www.tweetlord.com - so much more than just word games, it is an RPG for the masses. Start following @TLGame to get updates and start playing! We could use everyone's support to get our game out there and people playing, so please give us a try! Thanks.

    ChessTweets: http://chesstweets.com -- "ChessTweets is the newest generation of correspondence chess. ...". Check it out.
  • colin · 6 months ago
    Some good games here - but tweetbombing sounds as much "fun" as having a load of teenagers suffering from having their first taste of alcohol bombarding you with crank phonecalls.
  • Chris Loft · 6 months ago
    I would recommend the #haikuwordgame - players suggest words to use - up to five - then write haiku containing those words - excellent fun - just search for #haikuwordgame to see previous games, and how it is played.

    another game @GeoMineSweeper.

    The user need to find mine that have been placed all around the world. The user need to reply to @GeoMineSweeper with the location he thinks mine is in.
    For example if I though there was a mine in London, UK
    I would reply to GeoMineSweeper like this:
    @GeoMineSweeper London UK

    And GeoMineSweeper would reply back telling me if I found the mine or not and in this case would tell how far was the closest mine is.

    Looks like the trivia website FunTrivia.com has created a new game, "Quiz of the Day". A new quiz (trivia -- not personality stuff) is sent out and players can compare scores with friends.

    Just follow https://twitter.com/fun_trivia
