Key Crusher
If you're not a touch typist with a WPM above 70, either stay away from this game, or learn touch typing from http://www.typingweb.com/tutor/ or another website. To be competitive in this game, your WPM should be 70 if not higher, preferably with little or no mistakes. If you already have a respectable WPM, let's talk strategy!

The faster you press the key after it appears, the better your score

If the song ends you get 100 points and your highest streak is added to your final score.
The best way to get better at this game is to practice touch typing and play this game a couple times every day.

Regate 21
This is one my favorite games to earn SB on. It is very much luck based, but there are also some strategies involved in it which can help you get the highest score no matter what cards you have. Sometimes the dealer will give you bad cards and you will end up with 100 points, while others, you might get lucky and go on a roll to earn 20,000 points.
First of all, do not rush because the time bonus game doesn't work on Swagbucks. Take your time and think through it.

- Try to always have a deck with 10 and a deck with 11
- Getting to 21 in two cards gives you a blackjack which gives you 15 points instead of 10
- Having 5 cards in your stack gives you the points for that stack
- Bust early if you have to. The later you bust the more points you lose.
- Bust 20s if you do bust, there is only one way to win with a stack of 20, while other stacks you might be able to put some other cards on the stack and get to 5 cards or 21
- Keep playing! This game is very luck based, but if you use these simple strategies and keep practicing, you will win more often than you lose!
Starfish
DO NOT play this game to win SB! Only play it if you think it's fun. To win the 100 SB tournament it usually takes about an hour which means you are earning 1$ an hour. If you do decide to play it though, here are some tips:

- If you hit something it's -50 points which is a big hit to your score
- You CAN touch the bottom of the ocean, it does NOT hurt you!
- Go as fast as you can on easy levels and slow down on hard levels
Trizzle
Trizzle is a fairly easy game to pick up on, but many people fail to score more than 120K. Since the high scores for the Daily Progressive and 100 SB ones are 200K+, you will need some of my tips and practice to compete with those people.

- Think about your first move a lot. Consider where the other dolls will fall and whether you can get a chain going. Ideally you should get around 500 points with your first move
- Likewise, think about your second move as much as you can. Ideally you should get to level 2 after this move so you will have 31 turns left to score as high as you can
- Always try to make the Megamatches somewhere where it will affect 8 of the surrounding dolls. Never do them in a corner! It's better to spend 2-3 moves moving the dolls to the middle rather than waste a Megamatch by having it in a corner
- Always try to go for Megamatches. Ignore the small dolls of other colors and focus on one color to get a Megamatch. When you get one, try to chain them, or make it so after every Megamatch you will have 3 of the biggest dolls on the board to make another one
- Understand how the game works! To those who played Bejeweled and other 3 match games, this game will feel a bit foreign because the pieces don't exchange spots. They move in rows/columns
- Make Megamatches happen near the second biggest dolls so they can grow into the biggest ones and create another Megamatch on the next turn.
- Practice!
PegLand
Pegland is a very simple and fun game, but some people forget that there are some tricks to getting a high score.

- Wait before shooting to give the ball the best chance of going in the bucket. You will have to play through the game a bit, to figure out when that is on certain levels.
- ALWAYS try to get the ball in the bucket on what you think will be your last shot because that is a bonus 5,000 points
- On the 6th level, rack up the 6,000 points as fast as you can without hitting the pegs that show your trajectory until the very last shot. When you get the 6,000 points and you have trajectory guidance, use it to hit one peg and then get the ball in the bucket. If done right, you could get a 30,000 boost from getting the ball in the bucket every time
Swag Memory
Swag Memory is like any other matching game. Play through it on freeplay a couple times to figure out what goes with what on the second level. Then get a piece of paper and a pencil and get ready to write!
I don't consider this strategy cheating, because I know that ALL top players use it because there is no other way to get to 28,000-29,000 every time.

- Make 3 grids, one for every level.
- As you play the level write down the abbreviations or quick drawings for every image you see
- Every time you click on a new tile, look at your paper to see if you already found this tile before, this way you will get 500 points for the new tile, and 400 for the old one
- If you only get 400 points from getting all the matches, and don't get lucky at all with the 500 tiles, you can still get a score of 28,800-100 for time = 27,700 which is good enough to win top 3 in most tournaments
- The scoring works like this: if you match the tile the first time you click on it, you get 500 pts per match, for every other time you have to uncover it, you lose 100 points.
