Arantius.com He who wishes to walk a safe path must do so slowly. - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe Games Popular games Bubble Shooter Field of multi colored bubbles, shooter at the bottom. Aim and shoot, get the colors to match! MahJongg Technically a tile game, not card, but close. A classic. Solitaire The wasting-time-on-a-computer classic, solitaire. I prefer 3-card draw, but this is the nicest version I've been able to find. 8 Planet It's Japanese, so no instructions, but it's loads of fun. High quality graphics and sound, too! Makos Yes, those crazy game makers are still finding ways to make it fun to put 3 like-colored pieces next to each other. This time with cute graphics and terribly enjoyable sounds. Hangaroo It's hangman. Except, it's a kangaroo. Nice graphics and sound. Tower Blaster Gold Miner A very simple game to play, takes just two buttons. Time it carefully so you can grab the big gold pieces, or if you're good the diamonds. I could play this for hours. Bubble Shooter Color matching Tetris Arcade Ringmania Color matching Metaphysik Ball Revamped Action Action games Bakuhatsu Panic A version of the classic Kaboom! game where you are catching falling bombs. Boomstick Run around with your shotgun, shooting enemies out of the air. Hit more than one with a single shot to win bonuses. Bubbles Vertical scroller. You're a bubble, and you have to grow by assimilating other bubbles floating past. But don't hit the spiky things! Cyber Mice Party The mice are having a party, but they're too dumb to find the cheese. Help them find the way. Max Breakout We've all heard of Breakout. Bouncing ball, paddle, busting blocks. But in this version, you have paddles on all four sides. Action packed! Metaphysik Ball Revamped Fight gravity as a floating/falling ball, and find your way to the exit PlasticBalls Think arkanoid, but round. Gotta play it to get it. Snail and Pace Racing snails! The excitement! The speed! Squares Get the black squares. Stay away from the red squares! Tontie A kind of whack-a-mole game, but using the keyboard. Sound and graphics are great. Starts out slow, but trust me it gets action packed quick! Zed Zed is an android. But unlike other androids he has always had a very special dream - to sport a space suit entirely made of gold. Run through this platform game collecting gold pieces for Zed, but avoid the monsters and traps! Arcade games Blob Lander Gyro Ball It's Marble Madness. Don't fall off! Insane Orb Sheepteroids A variation on a true classic. Smashing A great Arkanoid clone. Bounce the ball off your paddle into the blocks on the screen, and clear it all! Super Bobby World As it's name implies this is a bit like Super Mario World. It's a side scroller type game, run through the worlds collecting coins, but avoid the bad guys! Tetris What games section would be complete without tetris? Uchuforce 2 Retro style shoot-em-up. You're a space ship, flying around shooting the bad guys. Action packed! Card games Ace High Blackjack Flash Poker Nice video poker game. Includes a "Double Up" round where you can bet on a random card for double or quadruple your winnings. Very nice graphics. MahJongg Technically a tile game, not card, but close. A classic. Solitaire The wasting-time-on-a-computer classic, solitaire. I prefer 3-card draw, but this is the nicest version I've been able to find. Color matching games 12 Swap A classic color-matching game. Offers both move-based and time-based playing for whatever mood you're in 8 Planet It's Japanese, so no instructions, but it's loads of fun. High quality graphics and sound, too! Blockular After finding three-or-more tiles of the same color, pick them to be eliminated, and choose the direction the pieces to fill the space will come from. Manipulate the board to move the special tiles to the right places to advance. Bubble Shooter Field of multi colored bubbles, shooter at the bottom. Aim and shoot, get the colors to match! Makos Yes, those crazy game makers are still finding ways to make it fun to put 3 like-colored pieces next to each other. This time with cute graphics and terribly enjoyable sounds. Ringmania A strange combination between bubble shooter and tetris. Spin the board to get the colored rings to fall in the right place: three or more together will disappear. Clear the board to reach the new level. The first few are boring, but then they get action packed! To enter a level code, just type it at the opening screen instead of clicking play. Number games Sudoku It's sudoku. Mouse driven, which is nice for idle play. Tower Blaster Other games Chasm Help Joe save Chasmton from a drought! A very engaging puzzle game. Reminds me a bit of Space Quest / Kings Quest. Chinese Checkers We all know the game, move your colored pieces to the other side of the board. Flamingo Drive A nice variation on the popular yeti sports game, this one involves some challenge and skill. Gold Miner A very simple game to play, takes just two buttons. Time it carefully so you can grab the big gold pieces, or if you're good the diamonds. I could play this for hours. Golden Gate Drop You're a worker on the Golden Gate bridge. You're bored. Throw water balloons at passing cars! Minesweeper Yes, the windows classic, in flash reincarnation. Peasant Quest If Chasm reminded me of the later Space Quest games that were mouse based, this reminds me of the earlier text based versions. In fact, it's a faithful reproduction of the genre, very nostalgic. Warthog Launch A simple game that can really satisfy your destructive urges. Pile a bunch of explosives underneath a warthog tank. Make it bounce around the screen to hit some funky looking alien creatures. Try it, I dare you! Puzzle games Animal Bridge Save the monkey! Build a bridge for him across shark infested waters. Nearly impossible, but I have done it. Blobs This is a variation on the classic peg game that in my childhood I knew as "Hi IQ." In this version instead of pegs, there are blobs. Jump one blob over another to clear all but one from the board. Comboling Given a field of squares, connect all the squares together with straight lines. Frog Mania Happy Pill My House Move crabs around the board to get them all home at the same time. Orbox Just like road blocks, with a few more nifty bits. Move your block around the screen, bounce off of other blocks, don't fall off, and get to the goal! Road Blocks Fun puzzle game, move the ball to the exit, but don't fall off the board! Higher levels have fun twists. Shuffle A deceptively simple game, the goal is to knock your opponent's balls out of the square playing area without losing your own. A lot like pool, with good physics simulation, this game gets hard quick, as you get fewer and fewer balls of your own to work with. Simulation games Dumbolf It's mini golf with Dumbo, the elephant. Challenging, but fun. Mini Golf 1 Mini Golf 2 The 'play' button is invisble, but it's in the top-right of the white area. Mini Golf 3 Parallel Park Strategy games Dicewars A simple but very engaging game similar to the board game Risk. Territories battle to take over the world.

Buy and sell real estate until you can afford the mansion at the end of the block. Moebius Syndrome Rotate pipes and elbows to create loops, which clear from the board. Very difficult.

Tower Defence Hordes of monsters are rushing to attack your tower. Build turrets to defend it. Word games Hangaroo It's hangman. Except, it's a kangaroo. Nice graphics and sound. Solingo Just like the GSN game show Lingo...
