Bloons - Today's Time-Waster


In the game Bloons, your goal is to pop all of the balloons on the screen by throwing darts at them. In each of the games 50 levels the balloons are arranged in a different order. With each level you are given a specific amount of darts to throw at the balloons (sometimes just one) and a target number of balloons you'll have to pop to move on to the next level.

Levels get progressively harder as you go on and start adding things like a bouncing wall, and walls you have to break through to get to the balloons. You also encounter "special balloons" which start effects such as giving you a boomerang rater than a dart to throw, or giving you the ability to throw three darts at once.

Double Wires- Today's Time Waster


Double Wires is a Spiderman type game where your only goal is to not fall down. You have two extendable wires that are released by clicking your mouse on the area you want tem to connect to. The man has a bit of a swing to him, so you have to watch out for missing your target or moving so quick that you have nothing else to grab onto. Simple, but addictive.

Shrink - Today's Time Waster

In the game Shrink you control the red ball. Your main goal is to avoid the black balls that come flying at you from every angle. Sounds easy enough right? The catch is that the red ball keeps getting smaller. You can make the red ball larger and earn points by touching a larger blue ball. The blue ball is also floating around making it difficult to hang on without accidentally getting in the way of a black ball and dying.

The black balls multiply after each level making it even harder to hang onto the blue ball and avoid shrinking into nothing. Difficult and totally addictive. Give it a try.

The World's Hardest Game 2.0 - Time Waster

So, just how good at time waster games are you? Think you've got the stuff? Well, The World's Hardest Game 2.0 doesn't think you do. Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place. That is, until I tried the game. The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...
