My Favorite Free Online Games

By: Roy Nanatro

Today's favorite games variety is pretty arbitrary. As a matter of fact, one could argue that lists are always diversed, no matter how supposedly random the items may be: if a gamer is involved in the process, items are always picked following some kind of criterion, that may or may not be conscious. So, allow me to rephrase and let’s see what my subconscious may have in store.

Swords and Sandals 3 was picked out of sheer curiosity, I suppose. There is a whole “Gladiator” or “Spartacus” vibe to this flash games: you choose your own gladiator and fight an undefined group of slaves/gladiators not unlike yourself, until you feel blessed enough to confront a higher-level warrior. However, “choose” maybe too lax a term: you actually build your fighter. You define your avatar’s height, weight, skin color and hair style, among others, and buy outfit and arsenal for him according to your funds. Fights consist in each player taking turns at attacking or taking a defensive stand, which implies the need for a certain strategy in order to win. Something radically different from the usual: just pressing all buttons at the same time, hoping to strike some kind of combo.

was inevitably picked for looking similar to anime series Macross (my top choice). Graphics is excellent, you can alter among different arsenal and improve them, and if you run out of ammo in the middle of a fight, you can always go back to your space station for some more. The real challenge of the game, in my opinion, is mastering the controls, since both mouse (for aiming and shooting) and keyboard (for movement) come into play. In this case, having a laptop may turn out to be a great drawback.

The Pong 2 was probably chosen as honor to its predecessor, retro game pioneer Pong. The flash game has four different levels, with three levels of difficulty, but even the normal/easy one is pretty challenging. The bar is controlled by your mouse, making it extra delicate – and extra fast, which may take a little time getting used to.

When looking at my picks, I realized that in an honest effort to produce a random list, I had come up with a definite pattern: variety. One action flash game, one shooting flash game and one classic flash game. What was I missing? Something completely different.
Rag-doll Goalie is one of the most unusual, utterly fun free games I have ever played. As the name suggests, you control a goalkeeper, who happens to be a rag-doll. That means that you have to literally throw the goalie from one side to the other hoping to connect with the ball and prevent your rivals from scoring. Timing is a difficult thing and therein lies the real trial; however, once you get the hang of it, you can see how many times in a row you can stop the row.
So, maybe mixture is not the only pattern: after all, these are four very different AND very fun free games.
