# I regret to inform you that LinkedIn’s games are very fun

**[The Verge](https://daily.dev/sources/theverge)** · 3 min read · 4 upvotes · 1 comments

## Summary

LinkedIn has introduced three games to its app as an engagement tactic to get users to open the app every day. The games are called Pinpoint, Crossclimb, and Queens. They are similar to popular games from The New York Times. Despite the cringeworthy attempts to evolve into a social network, LinkedIn's revenue and engagement have increased. However, sharing game scores on LinkedIn is unnecessary.
