Funny Free Stick Figure Games

The internet had developed a lot in the last decade, and today you can do almost everything you want online. You can make money, buy and sell, download music or movies but you can also have a lot of fun. One method to have fun and relax yourself is ti play online games. With time and with the evolution of the internet, the number of sites with free games has grown exponentially. Most of them give you the chance to play directly online, but you can also download some of the games and play them directly from your computer.

The topic of the games are very diversified and you can find anything for everyone. There are both children games and adult games, but also games that can be played by anyone, no matter the age. You can find sport games, adventure games, shooting or arcade games and many more. For bigger fun, the creators of the games also included some popular characters such as singers (Madonna, Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake, Hannah Montana) actors (Bradd Pitt, Angelina Jolie) or politicians (Toby Blair, George W. Bush). But of course most of the characters are invented. One funny looking but famous character is the stick figure. This is a very simple type of drawing made out only of lines and dots and it represents a human. The head is represented by a circle and sometimes it may have a very simple mouth and two eyes, but sometimes it can be all black, so you can't notice any of the details. The arms, legs and torso are represented by straight lines. Generally this is all that a stick figure will contain, it doesn't even need a neck. They are so easy to draw so they were included in many free online games.

A site specially build for funny stick figure games is: http://www.stickpage.com/ Here you will have many games of this type to play and also if has some cool and short movies with stick figures. Some of them are humoristic and other are in the fighting area.

Now let's begin to play! First we'll choose the "stick war game". It is a very fun and also challenging game. You can control each unit individually or the whole army formation. You can also build units, gold mines and learn all kind of strategies. Your goal is to destroy the enemy statue and capture all territories. The game begins with a cool intro, which you can skip if you are really anxious to play :) It is a nice strategy game which will keep you busy for hours.

The next game we'll choose is the "Rage 3". If you play it for the first time and you don't know exactly what to do, it is recommended to click on the "How to play" first. Here you will learn how to control your stick figure, and also how to shoot or release its special powers. You will have a new special power in each level. Your goal is to finish all the levels and find all the keys, and of course to kill all the bad guys that are getting in your way.

As you notice most of the funny stick figure games are based on killing other guys, so one of them is called exactly "Kill crazy Jay". The game is quite simple, all you have to do is choose a death method for Jay. And after that you can lean back and enjoy his death. Some of the methods are really funny, and they are not so brutal or bloody, so this game can be also plaid by the children.

Another game from the site is the "Street fight". Here you have to battle your way through the streets and find new weapons to rid the underground of your red enemies. You will also have to visit the dojo before each mission, so you will know exactly what to do. The controls are simple, and you will be able to see them the whole time at the bottom of the page. The game is really cool and has a great soundtrack with tracks from big names such as Prodigy or Fat boy slim.

Let's choose a slightly different game which doesn't include killing. It is called the "stick trampoline", and your goal is to collect real sticks by jumping up and down on the trampolines. You can also do tricks to gain extra points, but be careful because you have a limited amount of time. The way your stick figure will twist and bend is quite funny, and also when you will fall down, there will be some blood involved. After learning its secrets the game will be really fun, and you will get the chance to go really high with your little stick figure.

We'll play one more game called the "professional sniper". Here you'll be a sniper and have to identify and eliminate many high profile targets. For this you will have to use both your gun and scope. You don't just shoot everyone that gets in your way, you will have to be careful that it is the right person and that it deserves to be killed. You will have useful information at the beginning of each level.
