Mine asteroids, defend your turf in Space Game - Time Waster
by Lee Mathews Feb 19th 2009
Space Game is a fun, addictive RTS where your goal is to extract minerals from asteroids while fending off attacks from nasty space pirates.
There's quite a bit of depth to this one compared some Time Wasters we've shared so I recommend reading up on keyboard shortcuts and enemy ship weaknesses.
Set up your network of mining and power equipment and build up defenses - you'll need them once the red alerts start. Basic lasers and missile launchers provide your firepower, just make sure you've got them strategically placed so you're ready for pirate attacks from any direction.
With nine missions and two addition play modes, you could easily blow the rest of your day playing Space Game. If you'd rather not be totally unproductive, the early levels set on slow speed are easy to play whilst tabbing back-and-forth to applications you use to get real work done.

With Halloween fast approaching, it's a great time to get in some practice defending your territory against zombies. In Graveyard Shift, you take aim at zombies and other creepy-crawlies, blasting them into splatters of cartoony green guts. It's a casual first-person shooter, and it's very easy to get the hang of - use the mouse to aim, click to fire. Graveyard Shift has at least 15 levels, and it might even have some secret stages I haven't unlocked yet.
They key to getting good at Graveyard Shift is learning to use ...
