I saw someone post about swagbucks earlier and I'd honestly forgotten about it's existence so I'm looking around at it again. Have any of you done the install games and completed any of it? Wondering if it's worth it in my down time to play a game and earn some swag.

I've done a few - Right now I am doing Alice's Mergeland and I've heard MatchTile is worthwhile. I did Merge Gardens but it was a grind.
