Online games
 

Whether it's on facebook, or a silly flash toy you play, you probably play SOME kind of game online, so this thread is for the posting of game links :D


I've been playing mostly small little games right now:

Mitoza
Silly webtoy that you can play with over and over
Achievement Unlocked
A game that makes fun of the "achievements" offered in other games.
Spent
An "edugame" about surviving on your last $1000

And, just rediscovered this one:
The Asylum
It's a psych ward for traumatized stuffed animals and children's toys. Possibly only so interesting for me as a psych person, but very fun to play with and new patients are added. I have to go see if the little black bird is available yet or not so I can help him!

Peggle-HOURS have been wasted on this game.

Do apps count?

I am addicted to Words With Friends for the iPhone, which is basically online scrabble. I love that there is no time pressure in the game- make a play and then once your opponent makes a play you will receive a push notification. Some games I finish in an hour, while others can drag on for a few weeks.

They just announced that it is now available for android as well.

Sigh... I'm addicted to www.howrse.com
You raise, compete, breed and train your own virtual horses.

Oh man you just relapsed a recovered sporcle addict.

I play Angry Birds and Wordsmith on my Android phone.

OMG I used to have the game on my old phone! Love this game!

Minecraft. No clue why, but that game is SO addicting.

Oh god you are one of those.

No one that plays minecraft understands why. lol.

I play WoW...nuff said. I still play Warcraft 3 online after 7+ years now. Of course I play on the Playstation Network. Currently just ended an 8 game losing streak. Pretty sure 8 of those losses had Sentinel on a team.

Been playing around with

If you've ever played Magic the Gathering or any similar card games, this is an online version and pretty fun.

I've been playing this James Patterson based "Catch a Killer" game on Facebook. You interact with Alex Cross while getting clues, match fingerprints and find DNA matches. I would love it except that it is REALLY buggy. Every single day, while I am playing, I get an "Urgent" message to update the game and restart it and every single day when I do this, whatever I just did gets erased, and I lose a few minutes of play, which means I also lose stuff I accumulated. For example, I needed 2 more energy points to do the next step in the game. You get a point every few minutes so I was waiting it out. I finally get to 22 points and I click to do the next activity. I finish it, and then I get the annoying "Update" message. You can't do ANYTHING but click OK and let it restart the game. So it restarts, I'm back to the step before, and I'm back at 19 points. So now I'm waiting 12 minutes or whatever to get those 3 darn energy points so I can do this stupid task AGAIN. Grrrrrrrrrrr.

If you like solving riddles, this site is fun: http://lautman.net/riddlesofriddles/
