Chapter 15. Playing Games

Whether you want to while away a break with a quick hand of solitaire, play some chess, or race against rivals, it’s up to you to choose the games you want: Windows no longer includes built-in games. However, scores of games of all types are just a couple of clicks away in the Windows Store. In this chapter, you learn how to select your favorite free or paid games, install them, and play them.
