So are the shockwave games you get access to online versions only or can you download the full versions as part of the subscription? Hi Laura, thanks for the info.

It has a portal that costs $60 USD for a year. So for $5 USD/month, you get unlimited game play of almost all their games. You don't get to keep the games after the subscription runs out. With casual games, I find I pretty much master them and don't want to play them much any more after that, though at such a reasonable rate, I'll probably keep my subscription for a while. They have many of the great/popular games that are out, but not all. Though I don't think any of services have all the games. Also, with RealArcade, there are some offers that let you keep the free trial game plus a free Collapse II even if you cancel within the first 30 days. It's worth checking the web to find one of them. Hope this helps! You may want to check out and review Shockwave.com. It has a portal that costs $60 USD for a year.

Luckily I got it cheap with my Real Arcade Game Pass. As well as the numerous types of enemies (airborne, ground-based, and sea-based) and destructible scenery, there were three big bosses during the game. The first and third ones were easy but the second one was really hard and I lost quite a few lives – ho hum.
