Full Moon

Full MoonHere’s another short but enjoyable puzzle game by Bart Bonte, called Full Moon. The idea is to make the bunny get to whatever it wants at that time (carrot, pear, apple) in each level (there are only 13 of them). In case you get stuck, I wrote a complete walkthrough for it below. Have fun! Read more

Oiligarchy

OiligarchyIn Oiligarchy, you explore the land for oil reserves and start drilling when you find them. If the locals don’t allow it or if there’s too much fancy wildlife around, you’ll have to deal with this “problem”. This is where politics comes in handy: by supporting presidential election campaigns, you’ll get the man in the Oval Office to work for you and eventually be able to drill everywhere. In the meantime you’ll get filthy rich! Enjoy and be sure to keep up with the oil demand or you’re out of business.

Oiligarchy

This game has been created by the people over at la Molleindustria.

Crossblock

CrossblockCrossblock is a nice puzzle game by Hexaditidom (D.J. Trousdale) over at deviantART. The aim of each level is to clear it of all blocks by drawing lines through them horizontally or vertically. The tricky thing however is that you have to remove a certain number of blocks at the same time this way (this number changes throughout the game).

If you’re really stuck, scroll down for my walkthrough below. Enjoy! Read more

You Have To Burn The Rope

burntheropeAfter much consideration, I’d like to present to you the best web game of 2008: You Have To Burn The Rope (YHTBTR) (alternative link). It’s an amazingly superb little platform game and has everything that makes a game great. It’s unique and highly original. Enjoy it! Over and over again…

Congratulations and many thanks to Kian Bashiri, Christian Dryden, Henrik Nåmark (for the great music) and everybody who contributed to this little gem! There’s also an interview with Kian Mashiri, who’s responsible for the design, code and graphics of the game.

Auditorium

Auditorium is an interesting audio visual puzzle game about the process of discovery and play. There are no right or wrong answers; there are many ways to solve every puzzle. In every level, you try to redirect or control ‘The Flow’ which is a stream of audio visual particles that will create sound when matched with the audio container of their color. The aim is to fill up all audio containers so you hear the music completely, you’ll see (and hear) what I mean when you play it. Enjoy!
