10 Free Games You Should Be Playing

The internets are full of games and game lists for you to look at, and a lot of them are good. Here are my picks for the best of all the lists I’ve seen lately.

1. Desktop Tower Defense This game is unbelievable. Its so simple you can skip the instructions, but don’t let that fool you. Beneath the hand-drawn surface lies a complex strategy game. Place varieties of turrets on a board to destroy waves of “creeps,” using upgrades to maximize damage. Don’t play this if you have something important to do. You’ve been warned.
2. Peggle The makers of Bejeweled do it again with this take on a Japanese fad. Once again, don’t let the cute graphics and cartoon characters trick you, this game has depth. Various power-ups keep the levels fresh and add another layer of strategy.
3. Flash Portal Valve has created what many call the greatest PC game ever with Portal and now you can play an excellent mini 2D version thats just as challenging as its big brother. I can’t seem to beat level 10, so if you know how, help me out.
4. vNES Think of any obscure NES game you used to play hours on end back in the day, and would love to play again for free in your browser. Then go there and play it. This site is amazing with popular games to unknown by many.
5. Marker World Similar to Crayon Physics, you draw shapes to get the ball to touch the stars using very lifelike physics. Check out the video.
6. Command and Conquer Gold You may have heard of this little game called Command and Conquer, no? Yeah, well EA is coughing up the goods, giving away the one that started it all.
7. Puzzle Quest What would happen if Bejeweled mated with a RPG? Awesomeness, that’s what. After playing this mixture of a RPG where you pick a class and level up with xp and a challenging puzzle game I’m starting to thing many more puzzle games could benefit from a RPG makeover.
8. Frets on Fire This is a Guitar Hero clone that lets you use your keyboard or XBOX 360 GH controller. Go here to download song packs via torrents.
9. Flash Warcraft A Flash version of Warcraft, a 2D old-school RTS. Still fun after all these years.
10. Line Rider You draw a line that a stickman must follow by gravity. Bring out your inner bully and let the stickman have it and design some dearth traps.
