Chronoton Flash Game
Remember the Flash game Cursor*10, where you get to play with your (temporally displaced) self?
Here’s another one of the same ilk: Chronoton by Scarybug at Kongregate.
It’s about a robot that goes back in time for some reason. (His best friend is a talking pie!). Use your time machine to interact with past versions of yourself in this puzzle/platformer!
Pig Blaster

The aim of the game is to escape from the pig pen using a combination of fart skill and aviation techniques and stay airborne for as long as possible.
Start by using the left arrow. Then all you need is the up arrow for fart power, but don’t fly too high. Keep an eye on the fartometer! Collect beans to replenish it, and avoid the white doves. Link -via the Presurfer

Rollercoaster Creator

Here’s a fun Flash game where you get to create your own rollercoaster. It’s not as easy as it looks. You must respect angles otherwise your cars along with its passengers will fly off the track. A fun game that will keep you busy for a while.

Cog Factory

Cog Factory is a logic game that seems simple, but it’s NOT easy! You must sort the different colored cogs into receptacles, keeping the same colors together. Get three in a row and they disappear. Use the left and right keys to rotate the discharger and the space key to discharge. You can tell from the picture that I haven’t gotten the hang of it yet. Link -via Ursi’s Blog

Cover Browser Puzzle Game
I was skeptical when I saw Cover Browser’s game - where you drag pieces of an image to reveal the full cover of a comic book - but it’s actually kind of fun! (It really should have a little timer to see how fast you can do ‘em)
Link - Thanks Philipp Lenssen!
Doeo Flash Game
ZOMG! This is the funnest Flash game evar: Doeo is a simple yet maddeningly addictive game from Marcus Richert (aka Raitendo).
The game play is simple: collect the Doeos as they pop up - sometimes in unexpected places - to get onto the next stage.

Super Blockquote Smashes Corporatespeak
When HP released upgrades to its high-end workstations, a company official released a statement praising the product that is so chockful of inane corporatespeak that someone just has to do something about it.
So Rob Beschizza of BB Gadgets created a game called Super Blockquote, based on the popular arcade game Breakout, where instead of bricks you get to destroy words:
HP released upgrades to its swanky high-end workstations, aimed at animators and other top productivity bananas. More dreadful than the specifications, however, were the words of John Thompson, vice president and general manager, Workstations, Personal Systems Group, HP.
Boing Boing Gadgets has deemed the standard HTML blockquote insufficient to reveal the expressive power of his business English. Hence, Super Blockquote, which arms you against the marketroid oppression of Thompson’s prose.

Geographic Skills Quiz

Test your knowlege of world geography with this eight question quiz. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch posted it in response to a survey by National Geographic.
Americans are far from alone in the world, but from the perspective of many young Americans, we might as well be. Most young adults between the ages of 18 and 24 demonstrate a limited understanding of the world, and they place insufficient importance on the basic geographic skills that might enhance their knowledge.
I got all the questions right, but I’m not a young American. Link -via Geek Like Me
Stringwave

Stringwave is a seemingly simple physics toy that can keep you busy for a while! Change the settings and parameters and see what your waves and echos are like. This is something my grandmother would call “a play-pretty” and my father the scientist would call “addictive”. Link -via Evil Mad Scientist Laboratories

Magic Pen Flash Game
This Flash game is more fun than it should: the goal is simple - all you need to do is use your magic pen and draw circles, rectangles and other shapes to push the red circle toward the flag.
But the principles of physics, darn them, are always trying to thwart what you’re doing: Link [Flash game] - Thanks CheeseDuck!

The Roslin Station, a Flash Game for LOST Fans
If you’re a fan of the TV Series LOST then you’ll probably like this Flash game, The Roslin Station.
Why, it’s confusing, drawn out, and most people will stop playing after just a few moments, just like the TV show. Oops, did I say that out loud?
In other words, they’ve captured the essence of LOST perfectly!
Link [Flash] - Thanks Yinan Chen!

Puzzle Boy Flash Game
The game play of Puzzle Boy flash game (designed by Atlus) is simple, but the game is maddeningly addictive!
All you have to do is guide the little boy in a blue hat from one end of the screen to the goal by navigating through a series of obstacles. It’s not as easy as it looks …

Dicewar Flash Game
Dicewars is a pretty old game, but I’ve never learned to play it and the website doesn’t have any instruction.
On the umpteenth time it’s suggested to Neatorama, I’ve finally played it for the first time … and I’m hooked!
Here’s how you should start playing it: select the 2 Players mode (you’ll be purple). When it’s your turn, click on a purple area, and then click a neighboring green area that has fewer dice. The computer will "roll" the dice for you and if yours come up higher, then the area attacked will turn purple. You can end your turn at any time, but it makes sense to attack until you can’t win anymore.
If this is too easy, then you can move to the 3, 4, 5 players and so on mode.
Link [Flash] - Thanks (and darn you for introducing such an addictive game) Jerse!
Questionaut

Questionaut is a beautiful click game where you answer and collect elementary-level questions. From the picture, you may have guessed it’s from Amanita Designs (yes, the Samorost people). I wish I had all day to play! Link -via Metafilter

Open Doors, a Flash Game
Open Doors is a neat little Flash game by Kongregate user soapaintnice.
The object of the game is simple: use the arrow keys to move a square box to its destination through a bunch of doors. The trick is, some doors don’t open the way you expect ‘em to.
Bible Fight!

This game, created by This is Pop for Adult Swim, starts off with this little note:
In the beginning, there was a contest of strength amongst the most prominent figures in scripture to determine the mightiest. The role of this great rivalry was thought to be lost forever. Until now. Let there be Bible Fight!
You can choose Jesus, Eve, Mary, Moses, Noah, and Satan (with a mystery 7th player once you’ve beaten everyone) and fight in various biblical locales.

Olla Podrilla Puzzle

Here’s a jigsaw puzzle with people and animals as puzzle pieces. You can turn them around and see how they fit together. When you find pieces that fit, they will stick so you can manipulate them together. I found it quite fun! There are many more pieces than are shown here; the two I put together are just a hint.

Cello Challenge
So, think you can take on Yo Yo Ma, hotshot? Well, take this Cello Challenge from Berliner Philharmoniker and see how you stack up.
The Flash game is quite simple: it’s you vs. Camille Saint-Saëns (um, despite the first name, Camille is a guy, okay? How to pronounce his name is different matter entirely).
Take the bow with your mouse, and move it in rhythm of the music - if you do it wrong, you’ll hear it …

Flash Game: Bug Battle Combat
Bug Battle Combat by FineFin Games fulfills my two criteria for a fun Flash game: 1) it’s easy to play 2) it’s mindless fun!
In this game you’re a square swat paddle that squishes bugs on contact. You’ve got to protect your base from the swarm. If you think it’s easy, just wait till there’s a LOT of bugs comin’ at you.

Finger Frenzy Flash Game
Finger Frenzy is a quickie Flash game to see how fast you can type the alphabet … backwards!
The fastest person is one Ashley B Sivorn, who typed the whole thing in just 1.501 seconds! It took me over 8 seconds to accomplish the feat.
How fast can YOU type the alphabet backwards? Link [Flash] - via Look At This
Retro Sabotage

Retro Sabotage is a collection of classic arcade games with a twist. I would tell you what the twist is, but it’s different for each game. The Pac Man games made me laugh! The Tetris game called Compromise is a challenge I may have to work on for a long time. Link -via Metafilter
