Looking for a challenge? Do you like to win? If you answered "yes," quit watching the Olympics and visit the expanded games site at ArcaMax.com.

ArcaMax Publishing's games section, http://www.arcamax.com/cgi-bin/news/channel/1058 , now includes hundreds of multiplayer, puzzle and action games — including daily Sudoku and crossword puzzles.

The free multiplayer games have been added so competitors can battle each other for cyberspace supremacy.

"Our multiplayer games are pretty addicting especially if you have a friend you like to match up with to earn bragging rights," said Scott Wolf, ArcaMax Publishing CEO.

The company is also sending out daily updates to the games page by e-mail. Players can sign up for the newsletter on the games page or the ArcaMax Publishing subscribe page at http://www.arcamax.com/cgi-bin/reg . Other family-friendly newsletters include "Garfield," "Entertainment Today" and "Jokes."

A subscriber to "Games" will always be aware of "where the action is," Wolf added.

Other game categories at ArcaMax include sports and card games. Players can choose to download certain games to their own computer, while some games can be played online. The downloadable games offer a free one-hour trial, after which the player may purchase the full version.

Some of the most popular games on the site are advanced puzzle games, featuring a "story" to enhance the experience. Players don't just play a simple matching puzzle; they may find themselves defeating monsters in fantasy worlds, participating in archaeological digs, or running their own restaurant. The variety of gameplay options ensures that players will never be bored, and can always find something to interest them.

ArcaMax Publishing, located in Newport News Va., has also added a free books by e-mail feature with more than 400 titles.
