To access the games on Bing, simply go to the menu (three horizontal lines) in the upper-right corner and click Fun &amp; Games. From there, you can play a game, work on a puzzle, or take one of the quizzes.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-113458 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/bing.jpg\" alt=\"bing\" width=\"350\" height=\"501\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/bing.jpg 350w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/bing-210x300.jpg 210w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The games on Bing aren\u2019t rejects, either. Bing has plenty of beloved classics you&#8217;re sure to enjoy. Before you play, it\u2019s worth noting that Bing often changes the games that are available on the site \u2014 so if you don&#8217;t see a particular game anymore, it may have temporarily been replaced with another one. Also, many of these games play music. However, you can easily mute this feature if desired. Here are some of the classic games you can play on Bing right now:<\/p>\n<h2>5 classic games on Bing you can play now<\/h2>\n<h3>1. Matching cards<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-113462\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/matching.jpg\" alt=\"matching cards\" width=\"700\" height=\"436\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/matching.jpg 700w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/matching-300x187.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This game lets you pick from a variety of different themes, such as animals, houses, or vehicles. Once you pick your theme, you can then choose your difficulty level (easy, medium, or hard). Your game will be timed, and you\u2019ll be given a score based on your performance once you\u2019ve successfully finished the game.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Crossword<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-113460\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/crossword.jpg\" alt=\"crossword\" width=\"700\" height=\"358\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/crossword.jpg 700w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/crossword-300x153.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The crossword puzzles on Bing are a lot different from The New York Times crossword puzzles. Bing\u2019s crossword puzzles start out fairly short, with about 10 questions. They are timed and organized by a specific theme. For example, you might be faced with a series of puzzles that revolve around movies or another element of pop culture. If you find that the current puzzle is too hard, press the refresh button to give another puzzle a go. You\u2019ll also have the option to easily reveal any answers that have stumped you for too long. Don\u2019t see it as giving up \u2014 think of it as building your knowledge base!<\/p>\n<h3>3. Chess<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-113459\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/chess.jpg\" alt=\"chess\" width=\"700\" height=\"433\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/chess.jpg 700w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/chess-300x186.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This version allows you to select from three difficulty levels: easy, medium, or hard. The game also clearly displays a list of how many (and\u00a0<em>which<\/em>) moves are made. So if you\u2019re a beginner and you want to learn how to play chess, this can be a great way to start. And if you\u2019re not satisfied with the way the game is going, it\u2019s very easy to start over and try again.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sc-card-starred-link\">\r\n  <div class=\"sc-card-starred-link__body\">\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-starred-link__row clearfix\">\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-starred-link__col-logo\">\r\n        <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-starred-link__img\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/10\/nintendo-game-boy-192.jpg\" width=\"100px\" height=\"100px\">\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-starred-link__col-title\">\r\n        <p class=\"sc-card-starred-link__title\">How to get Game Boy games on your iPhone in less than 10 minutes<\/p>\r\n        <a class=\"sc-card-starred-link__button\" href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/how-to-get-game-boy-games-on-your-iphone-in-less-than-10-minutes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer sponsored\">Read Now \u25ba<\/a>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <a class=\"sc-card-starred-link__link\" href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/how-to-get-game-boy-games-on-your-iphone-in-less-than-10-minutes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer sponsored\"><\/a>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n<h3>4. Sudoku<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-113463\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/soduku.jpg\" alt=\"soduku\" width=\"700\" height=\"435\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/soduku.jpg 700w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/soduku-300x186.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This classic puzzle is also available to play in easy, medium, or hard versions. There\u2019s even the option to \u201cwrite\u201d your answers in pencil or pen. The pencil is used to make a note of a number you think is correct. The pen is used to write in a definite correct answer. Like the other games mentioned, this game is\u00a0timed.<\/p>\n<h3>5. Jigsaw<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-113461\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/jigsaw.jpg\" alt=\"jigsaw\" width=\"700\" height=\"427\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/jigsaw.jpg 700w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/jigsaw-300x183.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>If you didn\u2019t think you could do a jigsaw puzzle online, think again. First, you\u2019ll choose an image that you want to make into a puzzle. You can choose from a variety of categories and images such as animals, national monuments, movie posters, world wonders, and art, among many others. Next, you\u2019ll choose your difficulty level (easy, medium, or hard), and the computer will then create and scramble your puzzle for you. Just like a real puzzle, you\u2019ll \u201cpick up\u201d (or, technically \u201cdrag\u201d) the pieces and put it together.<\/p>\n<!-- Shortcode [playwire] does not match the conditions -->\n<div
