I'd like to get into gaming, recommendations please

Hi,
I'd like to get into gaming. I'm a newbie so be gentle. I have a Mac and an iPad and ideally would like to game with others. Are there any free games/websites I should look at? No idea what I'd like at the moment so would like to figure that out before I spend money. I'd really like to get involved with a community and get to know people.

We've got a few members who are into gaming, so I'm sure someone will have a recommendation for you. Have you had a look through the app store to see if anything catches your eye?

I like a game called RuneScape which is an online game with a community. You can do all sorts on there from chopping trees down to crafting clothing to killing monsters.
If you can find it on the App Store on your Ipad, also have a look for Minecraft, it's a bit kiddy but ideal for first time gamers.
Great thread.
If you have an iPad I would suggest browsing the App Store, tablets have loads of free games that are fun to play. The store will likely have a category for games, which you'll be able to filter by genre.
If you want to play games with others, the popular one at the moment is Among Us, my partner plays that one very frequently with her friends.

Nope! I'm not very good at resting at the moment so when I can sit still for 5 minutes I'm determined to start as my new distraction hobby.
I'd like to take you up on that when I finally find something! I'm hopeless
