I can call myself a gamer, but from time to time, I like to play something. The most I like shooters, and racing games, but I’m always open to something new and interesting. Not a long time ago, a friend of mine recommended me Balloon Race live, and since then, the game has been one of those I play the most often. It’s a very interesting and catchy one, and I can’t spend hours there without getting bored.
