Georganism

Georganism is a quirky game in which you need to make your way through a set of levels with a bunch of odd and colourful jelly shapes. Each shape has its own superpower, but the best thing about the jellies is that you can mash them together to form a new shape and combine the superpowers of the different parts.

Sometimes you will need to combine the jellies to pass obstacles, but other times you will have to split them up to get where you need to be. The jellies are searching for the hidden weapons, which they need to defend their village against an oncoming attack. Can you locate all the different weapons? There is one weapon hidden in every level.

You can finish a level without finding the weapon by ringing the gong, but you will need all the weapons in the end, so keep looking! Play Georganism at Games.co.za!

Cruiser

Cruiser is a great version of the classic board game Battleship. You have to sink your opponent’s battleships before yours are bombed to pieces. But this game is much better than the plastic tabletop version. For one thing, it’s more varied. There are many levels of increasing difficulty, with different layouts and different types of boats to deploy. And each type of boat has a different set of weapons available. Because in Cruiser you can do more than just shoot a single square.

You can buy airstrike forces for your aircraft carriers, torpedoes for your submarines, and missiles to launch a missile strike on a large area. You can buy a radar to scope out a section of the battlefield and search for mines and enemies, or you can buy and exploration unit and look for treasures and depots hidden around the icebergs.

Chickaboom!

In this funny game you have to catch the birds with your bright pink Chickaboom bubblegum. Blow bubbles anywhere in the field and see how many of the birds you can hit as the bubbles float up and away. Each bird you hit will also blow a bubble, causing a chain reaction.

Can you catch all the birds before your bubblegum runs out? You can blow more than one bubble in most levels, but not all too many. You only have a limited supply of bubblegum and air.

Watch out for the big blue bird that passes through the level every now and then. It’s too big to catch and will pop all the bubbles it touches!

Can you complete all the levels of this fun and nicely designed game? See if you can catch all of the birds. Play Chickaboom now at Games.co.za!

Play Angry Birds on any website

Haha, with all the ongoing hype about angry birds, I wasn’t surprised to see a browser addon come out that allows you to play Angry Birds on any website on the Internet.

This experience is brought to us by Nokia, which is awesome to see as I’ve worried about Nokia not getting involved with this sort of thing – well done Nokia, because this is a great deal of fun, and the return on investment from this will be 10 fold!

Here’s an example:

Little Protectors

Little Protectors is a Tower Defence game in which you have to defend the road against all kinds of evil creatures travelling toward your kingdom. Hire little archers, little knights and little mages to keep the road clear of creeps. Sometimes this will be easy, but the evil creatures get stronger and you will have to hire more men and craft new weapons.

Try also to collect resources from your surroundings when you are running low. Your protectors will be quite content to vent their righteous rage on anything you point them towards, even trees, rocks, statues, and crystal formations. You’ll need all kinds of resources to keep your army going, but harvesting them might take a while, so use your army wisely.

Don’t worry if you lose the occasional joust though, because even if you have to withdraw from the competition, your children and grandchildren will come back to avenge you and continue where you left off.

Mahjong Games

The online single-player version of Mahjong is a really popular and fun game to play. The aim of the game is to clear all the tiles from the board. The way to do this is by finding and pairing up all the matching tiles you can find. There’s lots of tiles on the table, but not all of them can be selected! In order for a tile to be playable, it must be free on at least one of its long edges.

Monsters vs Marines

Monsters vs Marines is a fun strategy game that is a lot like risk. You choose your side, monsters or marines, and then you have to try to seize your opponent’s land. The more land you possess, the more new marines or monsters your army gains at the end of each turn. There are 20 rounds for you to win the game in. Try to gain control of all the land before you run out of turns.

The best part is that Monsters vs Marines is a multiplayer game. You can play the game on your own and practice against the computer, but you can also choose to play against another player. Challenge a player in the lobby and invite them to play with you, or wait until someone else invites you to a game.

Pacman Classic 2

Pacman is a true arcade classic. Released in 1980, and having taken the world of arcade gaming by storm, Pacman still enjoys fame, widespread brand-consciousness, and even many remakes and spin-offs today.

Originally developed in Japan, Pacman was known as Pakkuman, named after the onomatopoeic “paku-paku,” which describes the sound of a mouth opening wide and closing with a smack. The game was intended to be manufactured under the name Puckman, but US manufacturers changed this to Pac-man out of fear that people would experience an irresistible urge to vandalize the letter P on the arcade cabinets.

Diamond Hallow

This is a very simple game. All you have to do is climb up and collect the diamonds. You can shoot the slimes and they will explode into a mass of diamonds as well. In the meanwhile you will have to dodge the red bullets and make sure you don’t fall down. Just keep climbing up, that’s the idea.

But this simple game has a feature that makes it quite addictive. You can use the diamonds to buy yourself upgrades after each time you die. There’s many different upgrades, and using these will allow you to climb further up and score more diamond points. You can also try to unlock all of the achievements. Continue reading →
