Addicting Online Games 22nd September, 07

It’s no surprise to see the emergence of the addicting online puzzle game. These days it seems like they are popping up everywhere. One of the recent games I got hooked on (thanks Ryan!) is the Bloxorz game (via albinoblacksheep). I did manage to finish the 33 levels, but it wasn’t before a couple evenings were lost to the game.

It’s interesting what makes a good game from an average game, and what is the tipping point to when a game becomes truly addicting. Over the years, we’ve seen the snowball game, elf bowling, penguin baseball and even mini golf. I’m sure I’m missing some classics as well.

So, from simple sports to challenging puzzles, these games keep rolling in. I tell you, we’ve come a long way from Lode Runner on the Apple IIe.
