Online Puzzle And Math Games

If you are bored and you are looking for a fun activity to occupy your time, then you can choose to play a free online flash game on the internet. These games are absolutely free and you won’t even need to install anything because you can play them directly from the internet browser (Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Opera or others).

These games are usually very funny and addictive, and there will be a game for everyone. If you like sports then you can play one of the many sport games, if you like adventures then you can play a fighting or an adventure game, if you like cars then you can play a racing game and so on. But not all the games are funny or silly, there are also some games that are more serious and they require some concentration and intelligence. And there are even some educational games from where the kids can learn all sort of things (learn the alphabet, learn math, learn how to count and so on).

So today we are going to discuss about some puzzle and math online games. First let’s talk about a puzzle game. A game of this kind is usually one that requires just a few clicks on the screen, that will trigger all sort of actions that will lead from one to another, and this way you will be able to solve mysteries or make your way through the game. One game of this kind is the one called “Abuba the alien”. Here you must click on objects from the environment to trigger different actions, so that you can help the cute little alien called Abuba. If you are not sure what to do next you can use the “Need a hint” button. But we suggest to not look at all the hints, and try to discover the actions yourself because it is much more fun this way.

And now let’s discuss about a fun math game, and we’ll take the Coolmath’s Crazy taxi M 12 game. This is a fun game that combines driving and math, and that will be very useful for the kids because they will learn some math while driving at the same time. Your goal will be to bump into some of the cars, while avoiding others. Each car will have a number written on it.

And before each level you will find out in which of the cars you have to bump in. For example you will have to hit only the cars that have numbers that are multiples of 2 or 7 or 10 and so on. If you will be asked to hit into the multiples of 7, then you will have to bump the cars with these numbers: 7, 14, 21, 28 and so on.

In case there are more cars that are matching the description in front of you, try to hit into all of them, to get even more points. If you bump into a wrong car, you won’t be able to go any further and you will have to move away from that car. And when you do this you will lose a lot of time, so try to hit only into the correct cars. There will also be other obstacles in your way, so jump over them using the space bar. And use the arrow keys to steer your vehicle. Good luck!
