h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I like playing card solitaire and word games. Can anyone recommend any *free* online solo games site please? (Oh, and preferably without having to download)

Try this site:

http://www.addictinggames.com/

or this one:

http://www.2flashgames.com/f/f-220.htm

And also google "Free Flash games" which tend to open up from your net explorer.

http://www.miniclip.com

I'd particularly recommend their puzzle games section

Alfster and Orcus

Orcus,

I have just found Robotrage and Runescape on miniclip...I can feel my lfe ebbing away.

Runescape... must mine coal.... must cut wood ... must fight hobgoblins...

Yahoo has a load of games

http://uk.games.yahoo.com/

A variety of strange games here:

http://www.milkandcookies.com/topic/32/

and possibly the most relaxing site on the net:

http://www.ferryhalim.com/orisinal/

Another victim!

There is Shockwave.com - which you probably already know about. They have Text twist (recommended).

Mousebreaker.com has some interesting games. UKcentric too, which is nice if you're in the UK.

Not forgetting:
http://www.onemorelevel.com
http://www.eyemaze.com
http://www.neodelight.com
http://lightforce.freestuff.gr
http://www.teagames.com
http://www.killerviral.com

Hmm, note the Professional Network Administrator has a list of freebie on-line games close at hand...



Always knew IT professionals were overpaid

Actually I thought it might have something to do with the on site list of mad links and games I update on a Monday evening.

As for overpaid, I wish!

Well, after a fun evening of playing free games I am selling my PS2 who needs it with all the simple but fun stuff on the net.

Aye

Trouble is, it gets a bit irritating that they're largely demo versions after a while.

Thanks everyone, lots of choice there

Maybe I should have asked for favourite free online games sites, (that you don't need to download) anyone want to add anymore.

Scrabble at

Word Association online

Try 'Fruit Salad' on:

http://www.mousebreaker.com/index.php?page=all

http://www.littlefluffy.com

Trust me, it really is a games site!

my favorite site is www.gadball.com (games link) - you *can* upgrade to membership, but there's no need to... lots of games that are absolutely free and a blast...

Santa Balls 1 & 2
Miniature Golf
Chicktionary

are my faves....
