    I loved playing mokou 🥺 my only problem was that I was lazy, I didn't even last 20 minutes in the game and I would quit , this would cause quarrels because 😹😹 . They would say now that I've played and enjoyed I quit without giving others the chances to do the same too

    Mantloane pls. If there's any game that taught us family values, marrige, growing up, being dependant and independent it has to be it.

    Unfortunately these days we play with video games and going out to play is no more. Kids play with play stations and all with their online friends
