Free Game Friday: Fragger

I had a lot of fun with Fragger. I played it through the last level, pictured above. It’s a nice puzzle game in which you’ve got to blow up all the guys on the screen, who are often in bunkers. Play Fragger

Free Game Friday: Street Fighter 2 CE

I didn’t expect much before I’d played this flash game version of my old arcade favorite. But other than the fact that you’ve got to play with a keyboard, it’s a really perfect emulation of the original. Check it out! Play Street Fighter 2 Championship Edition

Free Game Friday: Use Boxmen

Use Boxmen is a fun little game, reminiscent of Braid in its puzzles. There’s no time-rewinding, but there are some other interesting mechanics, and some damn hard puzzles. Play Use Boxmen

Free Game Friday: The Aisle

The Aisle is a very different type of game. It’s a text adventure, but the entire game consists of a single decision, and thus takes less than a minute to play. You’re in a supermarket looking at pasta. What will you do? Pick up the pasta? Move away? Eat the pasta raw? Sexually assault other […]

Free Game Friday: Desktop Tower Defense Pro

I’ve been a big fan of Desktop Tower Defense for years – I even bought the DS version, which is great. But it wasn’t until recently that the “pro” version came out online. It’s free, and there are tons of scenarios and levels to play out. Desktop Tower Defense is inarguably amongst the best of […]

Free Game Friday: Bubble Bobble

They call it “Bubble Bobble: The Revival”. All I know is that it’s got the same old music I remember from playing Bubble Bobble on my Commodore 64. If you remember Bubble Bobble, maybe you’ll get as much of a kick as I do from this game. Play Bubble Bobble

Free Game Friday: Hobo

I spent a while longer playing Hobo than I do most Free Game Friday titles. It’s addictive. It’s essentially an old skool beam-em-up wherein you play the titular hobo, running through a city beating up everyone in sight. Your combos include spitting on people, blowing boogies at them, and the dreaded vomit attack. Play Hobo

Free Game Friday Bonus: Daggerfall

Although I’ve already posted a Free Game Friday game for today, I just found out that Bethesda has decided to offer The Elder Scrolls 2: Daggerfall for free download. Since you have to run the game with DOSbox to get it to work, they’ve got a detailed installation guide (pdf) that you can follow. Download […]

Free Game Friday: World of Warcraft Peggle

By now, I’m willing to bet that most people have tried Peggle. While I personally prefer Plants vs Zombies, Peggle is fun enough to hold my attention for a time. If you’ve never played Peggle, now is the time to give it a shot for free. Download Peggle: World of Warcraft edition

Free Game Friday: Garden Defense

I heard this game mentioned recently on a podcast when Plants vs Zombies came up in a conversation, so I decided to check it out. While I don’t think Garden Defense isn’t as good a game as PvZ, it is a fairly good little tower defense game. Play Garden Defense
