Splitter 2

Splitter 2 is an interesting physics-based puzzle game where the fate of a small, circular yellow smiley face is in the power of your hands. Splitter 2 utilizes properties like physics and very basic mechanical engineering to help this small yellow smiley face reach a pre determined spot on the playing grid. By cutting different wooden structures or objects like strings, natural properties will help this yellow ball slide down different slopes made of wood or metal and hopefully hit the target area. Once the target area for a given level is reached the game will give you a score based on your abilities to solve the puzzle and allow you to move on to the next stage.

There are many different types of stages within the game, and new premium levels have been added as well as player made content. Splitter 2 is quite an addictive little gem that is completely foreshadowed by all the millions of other free games available on the internet.

Splitter 2 has a very "just one more level" feel to it when you begin playing, and by looking at many of the intricacies found on the many different stages it becomes quite obvious that some designers took great pride when developing their levels. Many advanced levels in Splitter 2 have multiple moving parts and require many different moves to help the small little smiley yellow face reach his ultimate goal. If you have some free time on your hands, are a fan of puzzle games, or just want to play something free, you should definitely give Splitter 2 a chance.

Much fun with Splitter 2!

The Arrow of Time: Easy To Use and Fun To Play

The Arrow of Time is a really neat bow and arrow game. It is only a one player game but it is definitely a fun game to pass the time. The object of the game is to guard off enemies that are firing at you. The only weapon you can use is the Arrow of Time. You can choose the range that you want to aim at and everything. The game gets intense whenever many of the enemies start coming after you.

Playing it for my first time, this was kind of overwhelming but after playing it a couple of time, I got the hang of it. I really enjoy the ease of use with this game. I am a firm believer that games should be easy to use for all ages and this game completely is. If you are a gamer that enjoys strategy and fighting off enemies, then this is a great game for you. I will be returning to this website very often just to play this game.

I love traffic game

I love traffic is a traffic game that keeps you on your toes at all times. The overall purpose of the game is to prevent cars from getting into car crashes at the intersection that you are controlling. The way you play the game is simple; you click on the red light to change it from green to red. However, if you want to stop a car from going across, you must make the light turn red in a timely manner or the car will pass.

Each level has a certain amount of cars that you must clear from the cross section. Once you reach the set number, you will then progress to the net level. As you progress into higher levels, the intersection becomes larger and you must control more lanes. You must pay very good attention to all of the lanes in order to anticipate which light you need to turn red to prevent a crash. This traffic game will keep you on your toes and if you begin to slack off, then you will cause a crash.

If you do cause a crash, then you will have to begin that level over again and clear all of the cars. An added challenge to the game involves police cars and ambulances. You must be sure to give those cars priority and try to get them through the light as quickly as possible. Also, if you back up traffic to far, then you will fail the level and must restart the level as well.

I love traffic is a very fun game and can even be played by younger children.

Much fun!

A typical sudoku puzzle begins giving you the correct placement of a few different numbers. It's up to you from there to decide where the rest of the numbers go.

Neon Rider

Above anything else, Neon Rider is a puzzle game and a great one at that. In addition to its puzzle aspects, Neon Rider also incorporates a time challenge where the player has to maneuver their way through the puzzle like levels while at the same time racing the clock to see how fast they can complete the level. The player controls a small race car that drives along different colored lines that make up the different courses. While controlling the acceleration and braking systems of the car the player must also worry about the cars tilt. When taking jumps and hitting bumps in the road the car will change its trajectory and if it is stuck on its back the level must be restarted.

Further into the game the player will encounter different colored track segments. These neon colored segments can only be driven on if the player manually changes the color of the car using the arrow keys. This adds another level of difficulty onto the game making it even more challenging and addicting. Later levels feature multiple paths the driver may pick from to form his or her own route but you will need to have fast reflexes to swap colors accordingly and even then you may not have picked the correct path, or at least the fastest one. The neon art style is simple yet eye catching and will remind you of older arcade games from the 80’s such as Tron. If you are a fan of puzzle games be sure to check out Neon Rider.

Bubble Struggle 2

Bubble Struggle 2 is an addictive flash game that tests the player’s ability to time a sword throw successfully. The player will act as the little devil in the game who needs to pop bouncing bubbles. If a bubble is allowed to touch the devil, it will result in death.

The devil is moved back and forth on the bottom of the screen with the left and right arrow keys. This is important for lining up the devil under a bouncing bubble when it is at its highest. The space bar extends the sword upwards and will pop the bubble. The sword can only be thrown up, not side to side.

Be careful, when a large bubble is popped, it will result in smaller bubbles that each bounce away. Now the devil has to pop the smaller bubbles without getting touched. It is important to watch those smaller bubbles, they do not bounce as high and take a little extra maneuvering to get underneath without getting touched.

Each level of Bubble Struggle 2 has an allotted time for completion, failure to pop all bubbles in that time frame results in the devil losing a life. Each level allows for four attempts before the game is over.

Extra points are awarded if the same sword throw results in more than one bubble being burst. Special prizes may be inside a bubble and can be picked up by allowing the prize bubbles to hit the devil. As each level is cleared, the levels become more challenging.

Crazy Taxi

There are two types of driving games. There are the driving simulators that mirror what it's like to drive a car in reality, and there are what we call "arcade style" driving games where you can fly through the air, drive under water, and not be bothered by those pesky laws of physics. Crazy Taxi is the latter!

In Crazy Taxi you are a fully committed cab driver who will do anything to find customers (fares) and get them to their destination - no matter what. Unlike other racing games where you're constantly looking to the horizon for the next checkpoint, Crazy Taxi places you in an open world environment where you decide how to get to your destination, which provides a freeing, sandbox style feel to the traditional free-for-all driving game.

Easy to pick up and play, Crazy Taxi provides a good excuse to let out a little road rage in the comfort of your own home as other cars, random objects, and pedestrians are all fair game when they get in your way. As a matter of fact, Crazy Taxi encourages it, rewarding you for your reckless behavior. With a variety of modes and options, Crazy Taxi provides a quick, fun, wild driving experience for fans of arcade style racers.

Free Tetris!

Tetris is a game  that is fairly simple to grasp. The object of Free Tetris is to make solid lines using the various shapes that are dropped throughout the game. On the right-hand side of the screen is your level, score, the number of lines you have completed, and what shape will be dropped next.

On the keyboard you use the left/right keys to move your piece, down to speed up it's drop, and up to change it's angle. You start out fairly slow, giving you an adequate amount of time to decide which way you want to fit the piece in. However, the higher you go in level, the faster the pieces begin to drop.

You gain points through creating lines with the pieces. You can gain even more points when you make a cluster of lines. It's fairly easy in the beginning, but when the pieces begin to drop at a greater speed, it starts becoming more and more difficult to angle the pieces in correctly.

Due to the shapes of the various pieces, it's fairly common to have a blank spot in your line. That's pretty easy to remedy; just make a line above it. Depending on the pieces you use, that blank spot should open fairly quickly.
