The Best Free Online (in-browser or downloadable) Games

http://addictinggames.com/extremeheliboarding.html

It would be nice to get past a log for once grrrr

101 free games (with hardly any comments on any of them. there's moaning on a.n.other forum that the list is an amalgam of other lists which were better but...)

gimme new ones

About a month ago, I used the Stumble Upon "online games" channel so often that I actually got a message telling me that I had viewed every single recommended Stumble link on the topic, and to chill out for a while. I haven't played a free online game since. Thanks for fucking up my self-esteem, Stumble Upon.

bloxorz roxorz! Something surprisingly counter-intuitive about it. (Or, I'm dense.)

No one seems to have mentioned these old school platform games yet:

This might be a better place to get La Mulana

No pop ups.

desktop tower defense!

Damn, I forgot all about Cave Story! I can really, really recommend that one. That one was obviously a labor of love for whoever developed it. It also has replay value because depending on the way you proceed, you can get different weapons and endings. A+ would play again etc.

Knytt Stories looks intriguing, I may check that out later today.

It took forever and never seemed to go anywhere. I stopped playing.

The original Knytt is even more low-key than most of the Knytt Stories levels. I'd agree that they don't really 'go anywhere' -- the appeal is mostly in exploring the weird mysterious world and seeing the tiny little sprite animals hop around, which is compelling enough for me but I can see how it could seem boring.

Just going to give it a try.

Kaipuu has a memory leak. (and Seiklus is better)

I couldn't get Kaipuu to work.

God help me, I just discovered Peggle.
Crack.

I really like Peggle and I've considered thought about buying the full version, but I bet it isn't much better than the free one.

thought about

But more levels! MORE LEVELS

o hi dere, its a download, but how does online kart racing grab you http://kart.nexon.net/Download/Client.aspx

I played KongKongSEA for a long time. It is a jump racing game with attack items and tiles on the ground that give you boost and direction changes.

as for rpgs I found:
The Spirit Engine
Triglaw -only works in certain browsers
flash rpgs: Sinjid Shadow of the Warrior, Swords and Sandals 2 (need full version to save), Bleach Training 2

Everyone should play the Knytt Stories level "Don't Eat the Mushroom"

PathPix and more. The demos will take you several hours to complete each.

Question:

Is the music for this game the worst music of all time?

HINT: Wait until the programmer's 15 year old girlfriend starts singing before you make your final decision.

The singing starts about 120 seconds in. Actually, to clarify, it's not the worst music ever, it's the worst Bjork imitation ever, and the worst lyrics ever.

EVER!

It's a real rekkid, not the programmer's girlfriend.

Is Grid Wars the same as Geometry Wars, or does it just look the same?

I've been trying to download the free game Perfect Cherry Blossom, but everywhere I can find it, it's a .lzh file, which I can't get my computer to unzip correctly for some reason (maybe because it's an old file and the new versions of winzip and similiar programs don't recognize it correctly?). Anybody here know what I'm doing wrong and what I need to do to be able to pay this amazing looking game?

Here's a clip...

LZH is a very old archive format rarely used anymore, but Winzip should work. I just downloaded the demo (which I guess you have) to see, it should work with WinRar or 7-Zip. Grab the English patch here if you want to read the hyper-cutesy character dialogue, profiles and such.

Thanks Nhex - I got it to work finally using WinRAr. Pretty crazy shooter on normal - I can't imagine the harder difficulties. The hit point is pretty small, mercifully...

I can't figure out how to get past the 10th level on this thing:

http://www.nekogames.jp/mt/2008/01/cursor10.html

Did I say 10, I meant 15th.

not knowing the perfect score on enclose horse is an interesting dynamic which annoys me. have i done well? have i missed something? the value is, if you look, in the html source. as was tomorrow's puzzle, defined but not playable

yeah it could give you options to try again or to see the optimal solution.

it does show you the optimal solution, but only after submitting (little link under the score)

(today was a relative disaster after 3 perfect days)

Missed optimal by one point today. Had a 5-game perfect streak :(

Finished 45x45 using brute force, now my OCD can take a break.

1715, 134 mistakes, setting myself a mistakes goal of < 300 but i might just pack it in eventually

the mistakes really cascade after a bit in 45x45… my wife saw me playing and now is hooked.. shes helped a lot w cheeses, cocktails and pasta

1800, 245 mistakes, i kinda like how this builds to its conclusion

Score: 1980 Mistakes: 1835

Lo

BTW someone forked it and made with some useful QOL tweaks, notably being able to expand groups you've created to see all items inside.

link?

there's a list of items if you hover the cursor over the groups on the original

https://vessenes.github.io/2025is45x45/

I played on tablet so mouse over isn't possible. The fork isn't that mobile friendly either but it's better than the original.

that looks nice but i'll be buggered if i'm starting again lol

hallelujah just finished 45x45. 212 errors. Probably half of them happened in the final ~200 correct matches.

Final categories were numbers, fallacies, legal doctrines, and programming languages. Lots of brute force and looking shit up

I haven't gotten far in this Type Help inspired game. But it looks promising.

enclose horse now tells you the perfect score before you commit. and now all the jeopardy is gone.

yeah I vastly preferred having to commit to an answer rather than being compelled to actually find the optimal. oh well

Catfishing.net is great though (some mild irritation with subject matter biases & repeated entries aside)

Agree enclose.horse is worse with check score feature. All the results are now compressed and it removes the satisfaction of getting a perfect score

you don't have to click on it!
but yes i see what you mean about the spread

I prefer the new way, I always used to check the source for the optimal score anyway.

wait... the check button has now gone!

yeah, it's inconsistent...

not sure if the "Updates" tab has always been there on enclose.horse but i noticed it today, and there is an accounting if that inconsistency, lol

Mar 11, 2026 NEW
Community feedback: many players want the Check button back - deciding the best path forward
Mar 10, 2026 NEW
Removed the Check button based on community feedback
Mar 6, 2026 NEW
Added a Check button to see how close your score is to the optimal solution

it's lonely at the top

Yeah, just saw that...
I feel like the updates tab is new?
I don't care which way they decide...

just make the check button an option

the same way skins are an option

skins = a horse of a different color?

the skins did fix my three-d-walls in a two-d space anger, albeit not very well (the log graphics are shonky)

well there's my morning gone

Dammit that should be illegal, absolute crack

95 AARGH

i got to mfing 98

i got 8. sometimes not even that.

did enjoy the enclose.horse lovebirds episode with two horses to enclose

(have also realised that the bees are actually only -4 because you get a point for the square. ditto apples are worth 11)

oh, is that energy bar new? i don't remember it being there before and it makes it so much easier. i just got 50 with no effort.

It is new. I had about 70 attempts on the desktop yesterday, then tried on my phone and beat it in 13.

Without the bar.

100!
