Editing Games Room

{{Construction| reason=Entire article being rewritten/wikified, list of game types to be fully filled out}}

The '''Games Room''' is a section of the [[Neopets|Neopets website]] where users can find and play Neopets themed [[Wikipedia:Browser game|browser games]].  While a few older games are simply implemented in [[Wikipedia:HTML|HTML]], most games in the Games Room require the user to have [[Wikipedia:Adobe Flash|Flash]] installed on their computer. There are also a handful of games that require [[Wikipedia:Adobe_Shockwave|Shockwave]].

==Flash==
All flash games have a 1,000 [[NP]] limit per game play, and can be won 3 times per day. Not all games can reach this 1,000 NP limit, such as [[Usuki Frenzy]] and [[Sponsor Game]]s, due to the low points to NP ratio. This 1,000 NP limit can be surpassed by the daily '''Featured Game''', in which a non-sponsored flash game rewards double the NP to a maximum of 2,000 NP. The neopoints received from games can also be doubled by having [[Lutari Talisman|Lutari beads]] or the [[Premium#Referral system|Space Faerie lucky charm]].

Some flash games require use of the mouse to play, either as a secondary controller our through complete gameplay. Mouse-controlled games include: [[Crisis Courier]], [[Kiko Match II]], [[Meepit Juice Break]], [[Shenkuu Warrior]]. Some games give the player the option to use either the mouse or the keyboard to control it, such as [[Feed Florg]].

==HTML==
The remainder of the games are played through basic HTML/PHP programming. Popular examples of these types of games are [[Pyramids]], [[Round Table Poker]], [[Cellblock]] and [[NeoQuest]].

These types of games are an alternative to users who are incapable of playing flash games because of computer limitations.

While most of the games have specific limits to how much NP can be gained per day, there are a few games which are exempt from the rule, such as [[Guess the Card]], [[Word Poker]] and [[Neopoker]].

==Trivia==
*On March 29, 2007, The Neopets Team updated users high scores ranks to be more accurate when compared to the rest of the gaming community. They also began to edit the NP ratio on a daily basis, based on how much NP a certain game would be giving out.
*On February 26, 2003, The Neopets Team stated that the high scores would be reset on the first of every month.  Before this, they were only reset when they were scores attained while cheating in the games.
*The '''Top Gamer''' [[avatar]] can only be acquired when 250 different high scores are tallied for games. As there are fewer than 250 official Neopets games, playing sponsor games are the only way to gain this avatar.
