There are so many fun activities that you can do at the computer, such as watch a movie, listen to some music or play a video game. The video games got really complex these days and they have a very advanced graphic and game play. These kinds of games come on CD-s or DVD-s and you have to buy them first. But it not always necessary to spend money to play a video game because there are many free downloadable games on the internet.

Therefore you just copy them, then install them in your computer and then play them. But if you don’t want to spend any money for a game, or spend time installing it, then you can choose a free online flash game. These games are absolutely free and they don’t require any installation because you can play them directly from your internet browser. They have a simple graphic but they can be really fun to play and addictive. They have all sorts of topics and characters, and usually they are sorted on categories. Here are some of the most famous game categories: 3 D games, puzzle games, card games, racing games, shooting games, adventure games, sports games, kids games and many more.

Some of the games are really funny and silly, but others are more serious and require some concentration and intelligence to complete them. And these are the puzzle games. there are two types of them, the simple puzzle games ( that usually require just to use the mouse and click on the screen on different object to trigger all sorts of actions) and there are also the jigsaw puzzle games (that are just like a real jigsaw game).

Everyone knows the rules of those games…you have to combine the pieces together to make a whole image. And the rules are the same for the free online jigsaw puzzle games, and you have to drag and drop the pieces on the screen to make a whole image. But the online version is much easier, because usually the pieces will stick automatically with each other, if you just get the right piece close to the next one. So you won’t have to always try and see where it fits like in a real jigsaw game.  There are many games of this type on the internet, with all sorts of images to make. You can find two of them on the famous site miniclip.com.

And these games are: the “jigsaw – car” and the “jigsaw – ocean”. Their name says it all…in the first game you have to make the image of a car, and in the second one the image of an ocean view. The car is cool red formula one car, and the ocean view is a nice scenery with the ocean, some rocks and waves and also a lighthouse. Like we mentioned before, you have to click on a piece of the puzzle and drag it and drop it in the place where you think it fits.

It is easier to begin with the corners and edges, so you might start with them. Once you get a piece close to its place, it will automatically go there, and remain fixed. And you won’t be able to move it anymore, so you won’t need to bother about that piece. Both of the images are quite easy to make, and you will complete them in just a few minutes. After that you can make the puzzle again, or search for a new image to complete. Good luck!

Whenever you are bored and you are looking for something fun to do, you can choose to play a video game. There are many types of video games…some of them are really complex these days, with a very advanced graphic and game play, and these kind of games usually come on CD-s or DVD-s and they need to be bought. But there are also a lot of fun free games that can be found on the internet.

Since they are free, and since they are made with the flash technology, they don’t have such an advanced graphic and actually they are quite simple. But this doesn’t mean that they aren’t fun to play and some of them can be really addictive. There are all sort of free online flash games, with so many topics. Some of them are sports games, others are fighting games, other are driving games or puzzle games or card games and so on. Some of the most popular ones are the driving simulators. So you can drive day to day cars, racing cars, boats, motor bikes, jet skis and so many other vehicles and you can even drive trains.

Today we are going to discuss about some free online train games. You can find some of them on this site: http://www.realrailway.com . Just visit the site, and then go to the “Simulator” page. Here you will see a list with all the games from the site that you can play. But even though you don’t understand Japanese, you can still play a game. Just click on one of the game images, and in the next page click on the big “Start” button.

It will take some time before the game loads, depending on your internet connection. Some games have many displays (such as time display, speed display, distance display and others) and you can turn the ones you want on or off. The objective of the game is simple…you have to get from one station to the next one in the time limit. So on the screen you will see the station where you start in, the station where you have to get to and the hour you have to be there. You will also see the speed that you are going with, the time that you have left, and also the distance left to that station. To drive the train you can use the keyboard or the mouse. Actually just in some of the games you can use the keyboard.

Usually you have to press the down arrow key to accelerate, the up arrow key to brake and the left arrow key for neutral. While pressing the keys you will notice that one of the handles from the dashboard will move. And that is the acceleration and brake handle, which you can also use with the mouse. Just press on it and drag the mouse up or down to accelerate or brake. While accelerating you will see a green icon with the sign P, and the speed will grow. When you are in the neutral position you will see a yellow icon with the N sign.



When you activate the brake there will be a red icon with the B sign, and when the brake is pressed all the way down there will be the sign EB (emergency break). So just start you train, accelerate, and get to the other station in time. But be very careful when you approach the station, because you will have to break much earlier (especially if you have a big speed). If you over pass the station, the game is over. In front of you (on the front window of the train) you will actually see a real movie filmed on the rail station. Even though it looks like a bad quality movie, the driving sensation will be quite nice and realistic. So enjoy these great train simulator games from the site, and if you know some others that worth playing, tell us all about them. Have a nice day!

There are so many types of free online flash games, and there is a game about anything you can think of. Some games are fictional and they have characters and activities invented by the creators, while other games are inspired by real facts and real persons. So there are games involving real activities  such as driving, cooking, cleaning, playing all sort of sports, fighting and so on.

There are also some games with inspired by real human, such as games with famous singers (Britney Spears, Madonna, Justin Timberlake etc), or games with politicians (Barrack Obama, George W. Bush, Tony Blair etc.) and also games with actors (Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie and others). Some of these games are really silly and funny, but there are also some games that require some concentration and thinking and that will put your intelligence and creativity to the test. And these are the puzzle games.

There are all sorts of them, and they usually have very simple controls (mostly you have to use just the mouse). They are simple to play in terms of controls…but the game play will get more and more difficult as you advance in the game, and they will really put your intelligence to the test.

So now let’s discuss about some puzzle games found on the famous site miniclip.com and we’ll choose the game called Scribble. In this game you must help the Ink Blots get through the levels by drawing bridges, ramps and also caging enemies. The Blots are some small creatures that are made out of ink, and they are forming from the ink that is dropping. They are not so smart, and they never look where they are going, so they will easily fall or get hurt. Your objective is to guide them safely to the end flags from each level by using your special drawing powers.

Just hold the mouse button and drag it across the screen to draw lines, and make path for the little creatures. Whether the line is going up or down, the Blots will follow the exact path showed  by your lines. So you will have to draw lines to make the Blots avoid obstacles, pits or slopes. If you want to block a Blot, and make him turn the other way around, simply draw a vertical line…and once he touches it he will turn back. But you can’t draw as much as you want, because you have just a limited amount of ink.

You will see how much ink you have left in the white bar at the top of the screen, so use it wisely. The lines that you draw will disappear after some time, and the ink bar will refill. So watch out when a line is disappearing and make sure that the Blobs  are always safe. Move the cursor to the edge of the screen, to see the whole level, and this way you can always keep an eye on the creatures. On the flag from the end of the level you will see a number, and this shows how many Blots you still have to bring to complete the level.

If you get that number of Blots to the end, the level will end automatically. And you can also use the “end” button to kill all the creatures left that you can’t get to the flag. This game can be quite fun to play and challenging but also a little difficult because the ink will disappear quite soon, and you will have to move and act really fast. So here was just one free and fun puzzle game from miniclip.com, but of course there are many more other games on this site, and on other sites too. Enjoy them, and if you find some other cool games that worth playing, please tell us all about them.
