Posted: 2007-08-31 11:42:35 Sports Games:
Hockey Rink.
Yep, we have baseball fields, football fields and even cricket. But not hockey rinks. Just find a decent schematic and label the parts…
Soccer Field.
What I said for hockey is the same for soccer. World’s most popular sport, indeed!
Sports Halls of fame.
Could be US only, or world. But see:

Linguistics games:
British / American English differences
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_words_having_different_meanings_in_British_and_American_English
This will take some doing, it won’t be as easy as it may seem at first.
ROT-13 Game.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ROT-13
contains a small table with a number of words converted to ROT-13 and showing how they change. Ex. Terra fl‡ Green. Given one, can you find/guess the other?
Medical Terminology Game.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medical_terminology
Pretty self-explanatory, really.
Miscellaneous Games:
Top 20 Steel-Producing Nations:
A world map and this link:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steel_production_by_country
(There may be some surprises).
Top 10 Onion-Producing Nations:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Onions#Production_trends
And most other commodities could be done. Sure, these 2 production games could be Geography instead of Miscellaneous—either is appropriate.
Cuts of Beef:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beef
This could be one game with 2 pics (US and Brit), or two separate games.
