Nowadays, defense strategies are the responsibilities of political leaders and military officials. However, if you want to experience the thrill of defending your own territory from an army of attackers, you can always play flash strategy defense games like Flash Element TD, for example.

Flash Element TD is categorized as a tower defense game. This means it is one of the many games wherein you have to purchase or build towers then position them strategically along a designated path, just like the secret level in Warcraft 3. These towers come in different types and have different ranges, as well as varied intensities and speeds of attack, some dealing out greater damage than others, though these of course, are more expensive.

As you go through the game, you have the option to add more towers or upgrade the ones you already have, although the waves of enemies also get tougher.

Another example of an excellent tower defense game is Xeno Tactics 2, although it is a bit more challenging than Flash Element TD, especially since you have more towers to choose from, more routes to protect and a time limit.

On the other hand, in Flash Element TD, you only have to choose from three basic towers which you can later on upgrade to elemental or combo towers. In spite of its simplicity, though, it remains fun and addicting, with just enough challenge to keep you going.

Indeed, it is a good place to start if you are looking for good strategy defense games, and if you get tired, there is the sequel, Flash Element TD 2, as well as dozens of others tower defense games guaranteed to give you loads of fun.

Have you ever wished that you were someone other than the person you are now? That you had different looks or maybe a different job? Well, these are what simulation games are for, just like the flash McDonald’s Game.

In the McDonald’s Game, you play the role of the owner of the McDonald’s company, and as such, you have four locations you can go to. You can go to the agricultural section where you can grow cows; the feedlot where you can take charge of feeding the cows; the fastfood where you can hire employees and serve customers; and finally, the company headquarters, where you can take a look at stock reports and launch advertising campaigns.

Your objective in the McDonald’s Game, of course, is the same as the responsibility of a business tycoon in real life – to make more money as the months and years pass (and you have to do it quickly since time passes quickly, too). This can be difficult since you have cows to raise and feed, and employees and bills to pay, but as long as you keep bringing customers in to buy your burgers, you’ll be fine.

Don’t put too much pressure on yourself, though. After all, the point of the McDonald’s Game is to have fun even when you’re someone else’s shoes. Like in any other simulation game, the role you play and the responsibilities you have to fulfill may not be real, but the fun and excitement certainly are.

Have you seen the Matrix movie? There’s no surprise there if you have. After all, the Matrix film is popular for its quizzical plot, its amazing visual effects and most of all, its astonishing fight sequences. Do you want to join the fight? If so, you might want to play Bullet Time Fighting.

In Bullet Time Fighting, you are pitted against a formidable enemy ninja in a one-on-one combat, whom you must defeat in order to proceed. You have your own moves, of course. You can punch. You can kick. You can throw a deadly knee in the air. You also have a gun so you can shoot at your opponent. You can slow down your enemy, too, and even run up walls so you can dodge your enemy or prepare for a special kick.

You have three modes to choose from in Bullet Time Fighting, too. You can stick to Normal Mode, go for the 300 Bullets Mode or rely solely on your martial arts skills in the No Bullet Mode. You can even make your own rules or grab a friend so you can engage each other in a Team Battle.

Of course, the controls can be very tricky, especially if you’re a beginner, but at least you can set your own keys so you can use your special combo attacks better. It shouldn’t take a long while for you to get used to the fight, too, and you’ll be enjoying every second of Bullet Time Fighting before long.

If you play with fire, you’ll get burned, or so the saying goes. Indeed, playing with fire can be a dangerous thing but it can also be a fun way to pass the time – the flash game Playing With Fire 2, that is.

Playing With Fire 2, just like the initial Playing With Fire, is based on the classic game Bomberman, only better. Like the original, the objective is simple – find your enemy and destroy him before he gets to you first. This involves blasting through a maze of blocks by placing explosives in strategic places while avoiding the blast yourself.

Like the first Playing With Fire though, you have power-ups to help you get through the game. For example, there are golden trainers which enable you to run faster. There are also lightning bolts which increase the extent of the damage from your bombs, which in turn makes it faster for you to reach your opponent. Playing With Fire 2 even has an extra power-up – the fast hands, which allows you to throw your bomb across block to your opponent. This way, you can blast off your enemy from a distance.

Indeed, Playing With Fire 2 is a simple enough game and a very fun one that it’s no wonder many get hooked to it. You can even choose to play against a friend if you’re tired of taking your chances against the computer, since there a 2 player mode.

So if you’re after a thrilling experience, stay away from the matches and play Bomberman, Playing With Fire, and the best of them all, Playing With Fire 2, or all three and you’re sure to have a safe – not to mention fun – time ahead.

Every action has a corresponding equal and opposite reaction, according to one of Newton’s laws. Sometimes, however, it is not just one reaction but a series of it – a chain reaction, like a row of falling dominoes, like the ripples across a watery surface, or like in the flash game Boomshine.

Boomshine is a simple and fun flash game with 12 levels, each with colorful circles bouncing all around. The goal is to eliminate as many of the circles as you can to meet or surpass the quota for each level and be able to proceed. How? By causing a chain reaction.

As soon as the edge of one circle touches another, it bursts, becoming larger and eventually disappearing like fireworks. The key, then, to getting a high score in Boomshine, is to know where to strategically place your first circle so that it comes in contact with many other circles and so forth. You don’t necessarily have to put the circle in the most crowded area or the center of the screen. You just have to put it in the path of many other circles.

This can be a challenge, which is why it’s a good thing you get unlimited chances to try per level. Still, like any other game, Boomshine eventually gets easier and you eventually get the reaction you want – fun, fun, and more fun to chase all your boredom away.

Do you sometimes wish you could drive through the freeway for hours, weaving through traffic without stopping and without worrying about the numbers on your speedometer? Well, we can’t all be race car drivers or drive like the Cullens in Twilight, but we sure can pretend, by playing games like Crazy Ambulance, for one.

Crazy Ambulance is just like the game Crazy Taxi and in a way, it is like the game Rampaging Creek, too. Only the vehicle differs – you have to steer an ambulance instead of a cab or a raft. The same rules and controls apply.

All you have to do is race to the finish line of each level before your time runs out in order to proceed and the best way to do that is by avoiding the obstacles in your path, which, in the case of Crazy Ambulance are other cars.

There are only two ways to avoid these obstacles. You can either jump over them, in which case, you will need a fair amount of speed for leverage, or you can steer clear of them entirely by changing lanes. You don’t always have the second option, though, since all three lanes are occupied most of the time.

Simple, isn’t it? And yet that only makes Crazy Ambulance more fun and addicting. And the best part – other than the absence of noisy car horns and the snide remarks of angry drivers – is that it’s free to play at Rival Saga Minigames so you can feel the exhilarating speed anytime, anywhere.

I like shooting games, especially first-person shooting games. Why? I enjoy the thrill of pulling the trigger, of the kill (though of course that doesn’t mean I’d like to shoot people in real life). I especially like games where I’m an assassin, a sniper, like in Tactical Assassin 2.

In many ways, Tactical Assassin 2 is just like the original Tactical Assassin. After all, you’re still an assassin and the main objective is still to eliminate your target, usually and preferably with one headshot. You still have missions and you still have briefings in order to ensure you do your job right.

The main difference is that in Tactical Assassin, you’re a hired gun. In Tactical Assassin 2, you’re paid to kill. You have funds so you can choose and buy your own weapons and upgrade them with a sophisticated array of accessories, which makes it more similar to classics like Metal Gear Solid and NOLF.

There are other assassin games I enjoy, like Arsenal, for example, which lets me choose which assassin I want to be. In fact, there are many others for me to choose from so I don’t get bored, and I certainly don’t.

After all, no matter what the critics say about violence, being an assassin is an appealing role and since it’s not a role I can play in real life (not that I want to), assassin games surely provide an exhilarating experience.

Let’s face it. Animals are not the only ones who are protective of their territory. We are, too. We hate it when our parents invade our rooms. We get annoyed when others get our favorite seats or spots in public places like the park or a restaurant. We usually just let out our anger or let it go, though. On the other hand, when you’re playing the mini game Territory Wars, you have to do everything to protect and defend your territory, even if it means to kill.

In fact, the mini game Territory Wars is mostly about eliminating the enemy in order to keep your territory. It has a turn-based warfare, and during your turn, you have two options – to stay or to move to a better position. Either way, you’ll have to attack, which means you have to choose your weapon.

If you want to deal a lot of damage to both your enemies and their territory, you can choose the grenade. If you’re directly across someone, you can use your gun. And lastly, if you’re close to the enemy, you can choose the boot and kick your enemy out of the way.

No matter what weapon you choose in Territory Wars, what matters is that you’re the one with the last man standing, even if he only has a little health left. Otherwise, you’ll lose the war and you’ll lose your territory and that’s something you don’t want happening in this mini game.

Nowadays, there is hardly any home without television sets. In fact, most homes have more than one, which just goes to show that TV has become an important part of life. It has become one of the main forms of stress relief, especially after work, one of the best sources of information in and outside the country and most importantly, one of the best modes of entertainment. Still, there are times when you just have to turn the TV off and do something different…such as playing flash mini games like TV Madness, for example.

Like most flash mini games, TV Madness is just simple. All you have to do is make sure you turn off a TV set as soon as you see a monster appear on the screen. In a way, this game is similar to the classic arcade game where you have to hit bunnies or crocodiles with hammers as soon as their heads pop up. The key is to be alert and be quick enough – both mentally and physically – so you can beat the timer. Otherwise, the monsters end up absorbing all your mental health and its game over.

True, TV Madness is just a game, and not even the most maddening one. (I can think of dozens of other games that have frustrated me more or driven me mad in more ways). However, there is a lesson to be learned from it. Watching too much TV can drive you insane, so make sure you turn off that TV once in a while before you start giving in to the madness. Or would you rather wait until monsters start appearing on your screen?

Do you love surprises? I do and I think everyone else does, too. In fact, December is my favorite month of the year because of the gifts I get to give and receive during Christmas. Of course it’s not only during Christmas that everyone gets to have gifts or surprises, though. There are many occasions a person may be given one and sometimes, you don’t even need an occasion at all.

Inca Box is a flash mini game wherein you can enjoy getting surprises every time you open the box. You can choose from three modes – survival, easy or hard. At first, the box contains just a single item but every time the box closes, another item is randomly added. The rule of the game is very simple – you simply have to point out which item was placed last.

It may sound so simple and easy and that’s exactly what I thought the first time I played Inca Box. I thought the items were easy to remember since they were in forms of jewels and gems of different colors. After getting twenty items right, though, I was stunned because I just couldn’t remember which were the old ones and which item was the latest one. It just simply seemed to me like a huge bunch of jewels.

Indeed, Inca Box will put your memory to the test. This new game which evolved from other memory puzzles is set to determine how far you can go depending on your memory. Similar to Button Sequence, Inca Box is one of the most mind boggling flash mini games I have ever played. But who knows? You might just have better luck with it – or a better memory than mine.
