The main way [[Neopoint]]s are rewarded to players in [[Neopets]]: by playing games.
#REDIRECT [[Games Room]]
 
Games are divided in the '''Gameroom''' and into three categories: puzzles, action and luck. With the exception of action games, which all require [[Wikipedia:Adobe Flash|Adobe (formally Macromedia) Flash]] or [[Wikipedia:Adobe_Shockwave|Shockwave]] to play, each of these categories also has some HTML based games which can be played on machines that may be unable to play more processor-intensive games. Many of the newer games, sadly, are made in Flash or Shockwave and these require a one-time download to play. These games also tend to take a long time to download, particularly on computers with a dial-up modem, and tend to run slowly on older computers, often leading to a less enjoyable experience for people on older computers. On the other hand, computers with broadband and modern processor chips experience the benefit of better graphics, as well as embedded sound in the game.
 
==Flash==
 
Most of the games within Neopets are created with [[Wikipedia: Macromedia Flash|Flash]], an animation and creation tool.
 
All flash games have a 1,000 [[NP]] limit per game play, and can be won 3 times per day.
 
===Mouse Controlled===
 
Some flash games require use of the mouse to play, either as a secondary controller our through complete gameplay. Mouse-controlled games include: [[Harry Potter Game: Moody's Magical Eye]], [[Peter Cottontail: Clock of Seasons]], [[Kiko Match II]], [[Limited Too: Mix & Match]].
 
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]], [[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]] and [[Neopoker]].
