Lucky Ben10
Once again, entering into the Kids Games realm is like plunging into the unknown; a bit like diving into the Twilight Zone, for adults such as me. In this case, my journey throughout the section left me with one definite question: who the heck is Ben 10? Furthermore, why would he be worth my time? Well, it [...]
Ninja Times
Today’s four action games are dedicated to a special topic: Ninjas. I know, we probably should have had that one covered when I reviewed the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game a while ago, but, er, no. It turns out the number of ninja-themed games is impressive, so I set out to review only four of [...]
Flash Olympics (Sort of)
The Sports Games featured today can easily be divided into two categories. The first two have to do with Track and Field Athletics. The last two, with Archery. All of them, of course, have to do with the Olympics; but then, most Sports (Games) do. Sprinter is a game similar to World’s Strongest Man, which [...]
Racing Reruns
The funny thing about flash games, video games in general, is that depending on the kind of elements featured in a game, the kind of character that may star in it, you can go from one end of the classification to the other without really changing the concept, or the premise. That is precisely what [...]
Shooting Varieties
Today’s shooting games take on different topics and modes. Conquer Antarctica, for example, is a classic representative of games that require a good eye for measuring distance. This is basically a penguin version (and by ‘penguin’ I don’t mean ‘abridged’, I mean the animal) of Presidential Street Fight 2008, which was reviewed the last time [...]
Puzzling Puzzles
Among games in general, I am not ashamed to admit that I enjoy the most those that demand a bit of a mental effort. This may or may be not due to the fact that I was always a completely uncoordinated person, which means that my only hope at succeeding at playing games lied in [...]
Featured Board Games
Ships, magnets, gems, blocks. These four things, and many others, have in common the BGames Board Games section. It shouldn’t surprise us, really: after all, we can find almost anything in here. Everything can be turned into a decent flash game. It only takes a little imagination. Take, for example, MagnetiBall. This is a simple [...]
Featured Fun
Today’s selection of games, based on those featured in the main page at BGames, is more eclectic than it’s ever been, I dare say. We have a sports game, an action game, a racing game and a puzzle miscellaneous game of sorts. There are zombies, martial arts, guns, speed, and some time (and need) for [...]
Tales of the Jungle
I laid my hand on the very first cell phone I owned almost by accident. Everybody had one, but I wasn’t really interested, really; it seemed like too big an investment, one I didn’t think would pay off. That was when my dad finally took pity on me, and showed up at home with a [...]
Fun at Random
Due to our continuous efforts to provide comprehensive reviews for the games found at BGames (and I do include you guys who rate them, otherwise this wouldn’t be possible), today’s games tell tales of madness, adventure, morality and happy endings. Er, right. As a matter of fact, this selection couldn’t be more heterogeneous if I [...]
