Shockwave is a ‘tried and trusted’ online gaming community, owned by the Nickelodeon Family and kids Games Group.
This simple, easy to navigate site will keep them amused for hours in a safe playing environment.

Why is this site different to other games sites? This grades the originality of the site..

All Categories’ of Shockwave games
A searchable database of kids online games.
Shockwave is a simple idea that has been well executed.
Whilst hardly a trailblazer, Shockwave have some simple but nifty features on their site. We liked the timesavers, such as the link to ‘five minute quickies’ for those looking to fill in a few idle minutes and ‘play of the week’ for those looking for a quick selection.
The originality of this site isn’t in the concept or the implementation; its strength, quite simply, is that it considers its customers’ needs. The multitudes of games are organized within unambiguous categories and there’s also a handy search facility.
Clear efforts have been made to help customers find the specific games they are looking for with minimal effort, which really adds to the usability of the site.
Social Option: 7/10

How interactive is this site? Is there a Facebook Group, Twitter, forum, multiplayer options or chat room? We found out..

An online games site without social options would seem ‘old hat’ to today’s cyber-savvy gamers. Shockwave know their young customers well and community
members can set up avitars, join chat rooms, review games, create a profile and invite friends to be part of their social group. There is also a facebook page.

How good are the game graphics? This grades the quality of the CGI graphics and animation of the games feature on the site..

A bright, colorful site with easy to read graphics and text.
If we had to be critical, Shockwave looked a little ‘flat’ and edgy than other sites. However, the best thing about the site is its simplicity and ease of navigation.
Perhaps added ‘techno glitz’ would just be a distraction and our guess is that kids will just want to dive straight into the kids online games anyway.
Fun Factor : 7/10

OK, how fun is this site? Are there games on offer? Does it do stupid things to photos? Run stupid competitions? We gave extra points for craziness..

With a great variety of internet games to choose from, under a wide variety of categories, including ‘Action’, ‘Adventure’, ‘Card & Board Games’, ‘Racing’, ‘Shooters’, ‘Sports’, ‘Strategy’ and ‘Word Games’, no kid is going to leave this site disappointed.
Members can collect tokens, play in competitions, join chat rooms or simply play solo. There is something here or all ages and skills levels.
The choice and fun factor get a big thumbs up.
The ‘Downloads’ section of Shockwave
A novel, ‘try before you buy’ feature from Shockwave.

Can you contact the site with queries? This grades the email support and telephone contacts available to users..
There is a extremely comprehensive FAQ section, offering a range of useful information on technical and general issues. If this doesn’t hit the spot then an email contact form can be used to submit specific queries.

A phone number or live customer support would be even better, but the basics are all in place.

Can you trust this site? This grades the site's suitability for children. Does it give parental advice? Does it link to unsuitable sites? Does it lead to download viruses?.
The chat room has features to report abuse in terms of inappropriate content of chat or to specifically report an individual player. Members can also block friends who turn out not to be so friendly.

What can you play on here? We graded the variety of games, genres, multiplayer games and lots more..
There are two levels on the site.
The basic, free membership does not disappoint, with over 450 games absolutely free.
The second level is for ‘Club Shockwave’ where there are additional, exclusive games and competitions, as well as the ability to participate in some lively social banter.
The site also has a premium service called ‘Shockwave Unlimited’ which offers over 600 advertisement free, downloadable games. Some of these are available online but not in the ‘full version’ and not without time limits.
Overall a decent collection of games with new additions cramming onto the site each week to keep young gamers coming back for more.
Multimedia Options : 6/10

What else can I do here? We gave extra points to sites with real-time betting, video, HD, mobile and audio..

The site offers both online and downloadable games. The chat function includes avitars which can have audio clips uploaded to them. There is also the function to add background music to games.
Overall, nothing stunning but some nice options.
