Earlier, when there were no computers, the main fun of adults and children were games on paper. For fun it was enough to take a notebook and a pencil. The whole evening passed unnoticed for communicating with parents or friends. There are many games that will be incredibly interesting in any friendly company. They are simple and do not require special training and sophisticated equipment. Most of all today, games are distributed on paper for two.

Bulls and Cows

The essence of the game is that one comes up with a four-digit number, so that all the figures are different. Another player must guess this number. To do this, he at each turn calls a new four-digit number. If at least one number is the same, the first player says "Cow". If the numerical designation from the sounded number is in the same place as in the conceived number, this situation is called "bull". Both players go in turn, the one who first guesses the number wins.

Gallows

The game involved two people. The first guesses the word and draws on the sheet dashes indicating the number of letters in this word. A gallows is depicted in the corner of the page. Another player calls a letter that can be included in the given word. If you guess, the letter fits, if it's wrong, then the head is drawn from the gallows. At the next error, the trunk, belly, arms, legs are drawn. If the man is drawn before the word is solved, the first player wins. Next rivals change roles and continue their games on paper.

Corridors

For the game you will need a tetrad sheet in the cage. Playing in order draws horizontal or vertical lines one cell long. The rival, who managed to close the whole cage, puts a point in it and gets a bonus move. The winner is the one who took more cells.

Battleship

This fun is a variant of playing on paper for two players. To fight, you need two square fields, one for each opponent. 10 warships are drawn on the sheets: 1 has 4 decks, 2 consists of 3 decks, 3 - of 2 decks and 4 - of 1 deck. An important rule is that objects can not be located on neighboring cells. After the alignment of forces, one can proceed to war. The first player names the opponent's field. If there is an enemy ship on this cage, he says: "Ranil," and the attacker continues shooting. If the object is completely destroyed, the enemy reports: "Killed." Players take turns shooting at the opponent's targets. The one who has brought down all the ships wins.

Football

Football - a variant of the game on paper for two players. You will need a sheet in the box. In this football field, you need to draw a gate with a size of 6 squares at both ends. The game starts from the very center of the field. The first player makes a move, which consists of broken lines (each 1 cell). Next - the course of the second player. An important rule is that you can not cross the opponent's lines. If one of the opponents can not make a move, another person punches a free kick from 6 cells in a straight line. They play up to 1 goal.

There are different games on paper, for one or for two. But always this is a very fascinating and entertaining activity that develops imagination, memory and thinking at any age.
