Dogfight 2
Dogfight 2 is one of the best, free online games I have ever played. the graphics are incredible, the gameplay is simple, and it is simply ejoyable. The premise of the game is that you are a WWI fighter pilot and you have to carry out different missions. A lot of the game constists of you maneuvering past other pilots and confusing them with different techniques of dives and turns. The intensity and level of play starts out very easy, but like all games, becomes challenging to the point of obsession. There is no glitches or cutting corners in beating the levels. Dogfight 2 will easily melt away your boring hours at work or home.
dogfight 2 gets 4.5 out of 5 stars.
Snowmaze
“Snowmaze” is found on the addictinggames.com website and was engineered and distributed by tastyplay.com. “Snowmaze” is a skier version of pacman. Zombie snowmen chase your skier through a labyrinth as you collect stars and presents.
The graphics are okay, but teh level of creativity is obviously nil. Yes, the game is enjoyable to play, but overall it does not even come close to any pacman game and is simply a waste of time. You could easily be playing pacman and having a considerable more amount of fun. “Snowmaze” is lame.

Flipside
“Flipside” is one of nitrome.com’s best games. “Flipside” is a unique racing game that requires quick thinking, timing, and a hunger to win. mirroring nitrome’s similar game “ying yang”, “Flipside” requires the racer to often switch to racing on the ceiling.
There is not much of a story line, but the premise is that you are a prisoner and you must race your way out of the jail. The music is somewhat annoying but can be easily turned off.
“Flipside” is an addicting and fun way to spend your rainy days or boring lecture hours on the web.
“Flipside” get 4.5 out of 5 stars
Farmer
Youda games hit a homerun with this strategic/ simulation farm game. The game consists of producing goods and distributing them in the town square to local businesses.
The game, however, gets much more complex than just growing and distributing. You have to manage your time and be quick with your mouse, making the game a tough game for laptop users. The game is a great game for those who love any sort of tycoon or sim game.
“Farmer” is the bomb.
“Farmer get 4 out of 5 stars
Filler 2
Filler 2 is an excellent strategy/ action arcade game located on shockwave.com. Filler 2 is one of the few shockwave games that are mouse driven but easy to play on a laptop.
The aim of the game is to create a bubble in the boxed area without being hit with a red dot in the process. The game does not require much thought and is great for just relaxing with a simple, but challenging game.
The game has great colors and an ocean tropical theme in the background. The music is also tolerable and almost can be called soothing. The levels start out incredibly easy, but closing out the task, in the end, gets tricky as you run out of space.
Overall, Filler 2 gets 3.5 out of 5 stars
Quick Fire Pool
Quick Fire Pool is probably one of the most addicting games ever created. It’s basically a standard pool game with a few catches. One is that you only have two minutes to pot all the balls. Two is that with every ball you pocket you get five more seconds and a score multiplyer. Three is definitely the most annoying catch. Every time you scratch you get 30 seconds deducted from your time remaining. But, time keeps running while you wait for the cue ball to come back onto the screen, so you really lose about 34-35 seconds each scratch. That doesn’t seem to make me want to stop playing though, and adds an extra challenge to the game, since the difficulty stays the same. I have no idea what keeps bringing me back to this game, but I do. It is so simple yet so hard. If you like strategy or pool in general, check Quick Fire Pool out.
Pandemic 2
This game is just plain awesome yet so horrifyingly sick at the same time. The goal of the game is to design your disease from the way its spread to its affects on the human race and get it to infect the entire world population. The game uses a points system to work out all of the buying and selling.
The game starts off with different types of disease types. You can choose between the three main types of Virus, Bacteria and Parasite. Each has its own pros and cons along with a special ability or benefit to choosing the type of disease. It really doesn’t matter much what you pick here, the game works out either way.
In the game there are various types of sicknesses and effects. The first tier of effects are all the kind of symptoms you would expect every once in awhile. Think coughing, sneezing, fever etc. As the game goes on however the sicknesses get infinitely more sick from kidney failure to hemorrhaging to depression and heart failure. The more intense the sickness the better chance the infected populous will die. For example, deploying kidney and heart failure is an excellent way to kill off a continent while coughing won’t do much of anything.
You can also choose how the virus can spread. The upgrades are virtually endless and you can make your disease transfer by water, air, insects and rodents and also give your disease strain resistance to heat, cold, moisture and drugs that are being worked on by the world.
Here are some pointers:
In the beginning the symptoms of your disease work against you. Try to minimize your symptoms and focus more on the resistance and transmission section. Too many symptoms too early will cause governments to catch on quickly, and you’ll have locked up airports and borders everywhere.
Work off what you have. If your disease starts in the Middle East buy resistance to heat. If you start in Greenland, buy cold resistance. You need to work off your surroundings and target traits that work for your starting point and for your desired infections.
The First Tier of symptoms is terrible (except fever) so unlock later ones and buy the most dramatic when you want to start ending the world. Kidney and Heart failure are excellent places to start.
Lastly, take your time and build up your disease slowly. This will allow more time before the world’s government’s catch on and more time for infected people to travel and spread the disease. In the beginning buy very little to save up for debilitating diseases.
