No thanks to MaximumPC (Those assholes), I just found a list of amazing flash games that they call “Worth getting addicted to”. The sad part is that most of them I’ve tried. I’ll save you the read which is lengthy at 5 pages and give you the names, game type, and link after the jump.

I think this game took me about 10 minutes to beat but I found it creative and neat none-the-less. A series of stages encourages you to move an elephant through a single level towards a mario style pipe… Seems easy at first, but notice the lack of directions? you’re left to figure out all the levels on your own. See how well you can do on your first try. Hit the jump for my screencapped final score.

I’ve been linked to another flash game that has somehow managed to steal nearly 2 days of work away from me… I hope my employer doesn’t read my blog! OH WAIT HE DOES!

Its another tower defense game with a twist. You get gems to activate a tower, and can redeploy as often as you feel you need to, with nothing more than a slight time delay. Unlike most turret defense games out there, this one actually takes a while to figure out the right patterns and schemes to successfully stop the waves of baddies. Give it a try if you find you’re bored or have a few days to devote to a stupid flash game… <sigh>

A few years ago I starting hosting a javascript game on my members page here at WritheM and found that it was getting plenty of attention… I guess because its so addicting. Today I received a link to it from a co-worker challenging me that I couldn’t beat her score. I promptly beat her score and even sent her the above screenshot… That’ll learn them to send me links to my own website! *grin*
There are plenty of places this has appeared to be hosted on the internet… so give it a try if you havn’t already.

PS. If you get anything higher than 35 seconds, you’re a cheater. If you actually beat my score (without cheating), post your time in the comments.

Escapa!

So I’m not sure if you ever played Bridge It for the PC, but this flash game reminded me greatly of it. The idea of the game is to create bridges that dont suck so that you’re critters can cross from one side of the screen to the other. Its a cute addictive game with a lot of engineering lessons embeded into it. Give it a try…

A friend linked me a game and it all went down hill from there… oh so pun-ny! The object of the game is to make your little penguin get as far from the ramp as possible before touching the water. For each jump you do, you’ll earn money which you can then spend to buy aids that will help you get farther. There are levels with different degrees off the ramp and acheivements for each level. It takes the basics of many flash games from the past, and adds an RPG element to the game. Even more enjoyable than i would have thought… Give it a try!

The History Channel has put up this game to promote their new series Jurassic Fight Club premiering on Tuesday, July 29th at 7PM MTN. now excuse me while i go play as T-Rex some more! Hit the jump for another screenshot and a link to the game… In every sence of the word, this game is EPIC!
