College is a time of taking on exciting challenges, meeting new friends, and generally evolving as a person throughout the whole ride. But when you first arrive, things can be a little bit nerve-wracking. You don't know where any of your classes are, you're still figuring out to do the laundry on your own, and can't figure out how to talk to anyone because everyone is just as awkward and self-concious as you.

What games will allow you to play with some other people, while not sucking up so much of your time that you end up flunking out?
