News Around the Kingdom: Celebrating Independence Day

by The King

Greetings Comics Royals!

Hear ye! hear ye! If you have free time on your hands over the weekend, the doors are now open to the newly expanded Puzzles Palace on Comics Kingdom. We welcome you to step on in and enjoy free access to more than 50 of the best games from King Features, Conceptis and Arkadium, including such massively popular favorites as Crosswords, Sudoku and newly added Mahjongg! 

A note to our Royal Members: Individual puzzles will no longer be included in Favorites or email delivery. In addition, advertising from our partners will be included in Puzzles Palace. We hope that you enjoy the great new selection of free-to-play games while the rest of Comics Kingdom remains ad-free.

Get ready, set and PLAY games at the enhanced and expanded Puzzles Palace!
