There are many games in the Toolkit. My kids love the one which is
similar to hangman. Spend some time going through the Lesson
Activity Toolkit, especially the activities and the games. You'll
be amazed at all you find.

Yes, only one student can write on the Smart board at a time. But
it is still a great resource. And you can SAVE the examples. You
can also export them as a pdf file and attach to an email or class
website for students to be able to access later. You can also do
the problem yourself using the record feature and play it back step
by step.
