Chuck The Sheep

It’s been a while since we’ve posted a good Flash game, but Chuck the Sheep is certainly worth a play. You launch the sheep and move him up and down to land on the balloons. Don’t miss a chance to fly with Chuck.

Ball Droppings

This game may just waste a few hours of your day, but you will enjoy doing it. Try to angle the lines under the dropping ball to create different musical tones. You can adjust the speed and rate at which the balls drop. How did you do?

If you like geeky physics flash games, you’re going to love 1cup1coffee.com.

Here are some of my favorites:

Destroy The Village

Demolition Dude

Multiball

If you try one, come on back and let me know what level you got up to! I have yet to finish any of them, but am really close on Demolition Dude.

Alphabet Shoot Flash Game

Those who wonder why in the world they ever took a course in physics can derive some satisfaction from playing this game successfully; it requires just a modicum of understanding of the basic principles of physics.

Shrink It

Shrink It is a flash game that requires no unusual skills other than an understanding of basic physics principles; you may or may not find that reassuring.

A mouse click shrinks objects; the removed mass is “stored” and can then be added to another object by holding the space bar while clicking.

Those who enjoy this should be reminded that Neatorama has an archive of several hundred flash games.

Smart-Kit: Seriously Fun Online Jigsaw Puzzle Website

Alex — Tue, 30 Jun 2009 12:56:46 +0000

I *love* jigsaw puzzles but haven’t had the time to put one together since I have kids. Who has the time? (Plus, I’m sure that if I even try now pieces would be eaten forthwith by said kids). So, when Smart-Kit asked me to do a review of their online puzzles, I jumped at the opportunity.

First of all, there are limitations to a Flash-based online jigsaw puzzle: the workspace is limited and the pieces are already rightside up. But the benefits far outweigh the limitations for a casual gamer like me. For one, you’d never lose a piece! Pieces virtually snap together when you get the right ones next to each other – and no rotating necessary (so I guess that rightside up pieces is actually a benefit after all).

You can select how complicated you’d like the puzzle dimensions to be: 4×3, 8×6 (the one above), 12×9 or if you like a challenge, 16×12. See the pic above? It took me about 8 minutes to complete – just the right amount of time for a little fun break at work.

We’ve covered Smart-Kit before on Neatorama (they also have many more non-jigsaw puzzles – like the SwizzlePop! and the Hidden Object Puzzle: Find the Bear, for instance), so for a quick online fun, give ‘em a try!

The Ultimate Vending Machine Challenge

Stacy — Sat, 14 Feb 2009 01:07:02 +0000

There’s a little part of me that waits with bated breath every time I buy something from the vending machine downstairs at work. Will the little spirals twist enough to let my delicious snack out, or will it get stuck on the one just before my snack and leave it dangling there, mocking me?

It usually works out for the best, but on the days it doesn’t, you can always vent your frustration with the Ultimate Vending Machine Challenge from Adult Swim.
