In this second part of two online interactive picture games you will test your knowledge of the names in English of more types of non-residential (expect one) buildings and structures.

In the game you will see images of the following different types of buildings and structures: art gallery, bandstand, barn, barracks, concert hall, courthouse, embassy, factory, fountain, harbour, health clinic, kiosk, landfill site, pier, port, power station, promenade, refinery, shed, shipyard, skyscraper, square, stately home & warehouse.

This exercise is aimed at students who have a B2+ level and knowledge of the English language and want to improve their knowledge of vocabulary used in more advanced situations. Students who have a lower level and knowledge of the language (A2 to B1) will find it difficult. For these, consider doing the below exercise instead.

If you haven't done it yet, try the first part of this online picture game where you can test your knowledge on the names in English of commonly found types of building and structures.

How to play it

It's simple. Match the name to the picture. You have 15 seconds to identify the name of the main building in the picture while it is slowly revealed. Click on the name below the picture which you think it is.

The quicker you identify the picture, the more points you get. However, if you guess wrong you won't be able to make another guess for 1.5 seconds. Also, the less wrong guesses you make in the game, the more points you are given at the end.

Press the 'Start The Game' button to begin the game.

Different versions of the game

Although the content (the vocabulary and images/photos) is the same, the version of this game is different between when you play it on a mobile phone and when you play it on a bigger screen device (like on a laptop, a desktop or a large interactive board screen). The game on bigger screen devices has been designed for more classroom environments.
