			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There are many sites for <strong>online gaming</strong> and one of the best is <a href="http://www.miniclip.com">this</a> one.  It has hundreds of cool games which are sorted on categories. And here  are some of the categories: 3D, action, Christmas games, dancing, girls,  sports, kids, learning games and <strong>online gaming</strong> strategies, <a id="aptureLink_z2WVZ4tynD" href="http://www.racinggames60.com/">racing games</a>, political games, puzzle and  many more others. So now let’s choose  random one, and discuss more  about it. Let’s take for example the one called “Ping pong”. It may  sound like a classic game of ping pong where you play against an  opponent, but it is actually different. You will have a ping pong paddle  and a ball, and your objective is to bounce the ball on the paddle for  as many times as possible.</p>
<p>In case you played ping pong, you probably  also tried to bounce the ball on the paddle for a few times, and you  noticed that is quite easy. But it’s not the same in this game, and  keeping the ball on the paddle can be really difficult. First click on  the screen and drop the ball and then it will begin to bounce. Move your  mouse in order to move the paddle as you want and each time the ball  falls on the paddle it will bounce up again. But depending on the way it  hits your paddle it will jump in different directions, and you will  need to follow it. And in case you don’t place it mouse correctly, the  ball can jump far away, and you won’t catch it anymore. The area that  you can cover is just as far as the player can extend his arm. So have  fun!</p>
<p><center> <a href="http://thechallengebase.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/On-Line-Gaming.png"><img src="http://thechallengebase.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/On-Line-Gaming.png" alt="" title="On Line Gaming" width="280" height="280" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1672" /></a></center> </p>
<p>So  now let&#8217;s discuss about another fun game from this site, and we will  choose the one called the “<a id="aptureLink_DRfhDMdKpK" href="http://www.freeworldgroup.com/games4/gameindex/rally.htm">Miniclip Rally</a>”. As you might tell from its  name, this is a racing game, where you will get the chance  to race with one of three Miniclip characters. There are three vehicles  and three tracks, and some vehicles are more suited to certain tracks.  The three characters that you can play with are: a monkey, Zed and the <a id="aptureLink_6ZhV380WkE" href="http://www.miniclip.com/games/3-foot-ninja/en/">3  foot ninja</a>. Each car has its own features. For example the monkey is  better at speed and grip, and has a small acceleration, the Zed is  really good at acceleration and speed, but it is really difficult to  handle, and finally the 3 foot ninja has a really good grip, a moderate  acceleration but a low top speed. The three tracks are: the jungle, the  highway and the Chinatown. During the game you will have to use just the  arrow keys to control the vehicle, and you will see your car from  above. No matter which vehicle you choose, it can still be quite  difficult to control, but the game can be fun after you get used to it.  So good luck!</p>

<p>So here was just one example of a game from the great miniclip.com  site. But there are much more games to play and they are just waiting  for you to try them. So have fun!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>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, <a id="aptureLink_WUMDRp7R96" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Madonna%20%28entertainer%29">Madonna</a>, Justin Timberlake etc), or games with politicians  (Barrack Obama, George W. Bush, <a id="aptureLink_twNWPnkgZo" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony%20Blair">Tony Blair</a> 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 <strong>free online puzzle games</strong>.  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.</p>
<p>So now let’s discuss about some puzzle games found on the famous site <a href="http://www.miniclip.com/games/ro/">miniclip.com</a> 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.<br />
<center><br />
<a href="http://thechallengebase.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/ffrr-online-puzzle-games.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1636" title="ffrr-online-puzzle-games" src="http://thechallengebase.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/ffrr-online-puzzle-games.jpg" alt="" width="98" height="73" /></a><br />
</center><br />
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.<br />
<center><br />
<a href="http://thechallengebase.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/ffrr-online-puzzle-games.png"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1637" title="ffrr-online-puzzle-games" src="http://thechallengebase.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/ffrr-online-puzzle-games.png" alt="" width="355" height="258" /></a><br />
</center><br />
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 of the many <strong>free online puzzle games</strong> 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.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The  world of free online games is really diversified and there are hundreds  of sites and  thousands of cool games that you can play. And the great  part is that they are all for free. All you need to have is a computer  and a connection to the internet, and you can play any game you want.  There are all sorts of topics and all kinds of characters so there will  be a game for anyone.</p>
<p>Among the many categories of flash games there are also the <strong>online puzzle games , </strong>and  about one of them we’ll discuss more today. And we’ll choose the game  called “Pipol smasher” which can be found on the site funny-games.biz.  This is a really cool physics puzzle game in which your objective is to  crush all the people from the level by controlling the cars that you  have. The controls are really simple, and you only need to click once on  a car to start it, and click on it again to stop it. Depending on the  level you can also use all the items that are surrounding you and they  can really help you.</p>
<p><a id="aptureLink_UeWSipQcPI" style="margin: 0pt auto; text-align: center; display: block; padding: 0px 6px;" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video%20game"><img style="border: 0px none;" title="Video game" src="http://placeholder.apture.com/ph/360x320_WikipediaArticle/" alt="" width="360px" height="320px" /></a></p>
<p>The only thing you need to be careful at is not to  drive a car off the platforms. The <a id="aptureLink_5oaaIC0kVh" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game">game</a> can be quite violent, but in a  really fun way. In the first level you will have 2 cars and 2 humans,  and you will need to click on a car, let it drive itself for a few  meters until it hits the human, and then click again to stop it. Do the  same with the second car, and the level is complete. Since the lower car  has a wall in front of it, you don’t even need to stop it, and you can  let it hit the human with full speed. In the second level you will have  one care and 8 humans. Start the car and let it go all the way down, on  the last platform, but be sure to stop it in time. In the third level  there are 3 platforms, 3 humans and six cars. Here you have two options:  you can either activate only one care from each level until it hits the  human, and then stop it…but you can also activate both cars from the  same level, and let them crash into each other and catch the human  between them. This is a much more fun method to complete this level <img src='http://thechallengebase.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> .<br />
<center><br />
<a href="http://thechallengebase.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/puzzle-games-on-line.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1634" title="puzzle-games-on-line" src="http://thechallengebase.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/puzzle-games-on-line.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="180" /></a><br />
</center><br />
In the  next level you have only a car and a human, but you will have to be  careful because the car will go really fast, and jump higher than the  platform. So you will need to drive it really slow, and make it fall  directly on the human that is situated below. In the level 5 you will  drive some kind of a big bus. You can click on it and let it go all the  way, because it will stop into a brick wall. It will then activate the  platform below, and throw it directly on the person and kill it. But you  will then have to stop the car, otherwise it will fall too. the games  goes on and on, and there are more and more fun methods to kill humans  with cars. After all it is a really nice game, and we invite you to try  it. Have fun!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The  world of free online games is very diversified, and there are thousands  of games on the internet with all sorts of topics and characters. Some  of them are really silly or funny, while others can be more serious.  Among the last category there are the puzzle games which require a lot  of concentration, and also the <strong>free online gambling games. </strong>Some  of them require concentration, but most of them are relying just on good  luck. There are sites where you can play casino games with real money  (so you can win or lose real money), but there are also sites where you  can play these games absolutely for free, and don’t win or lose  anything.</p>
<p>The  most famous casino games in the world are: blackjack, poker, roulette  and the slot games, and you can find them on hundreds of sites. The  basic rules of the games are the same, only that the graphic of the game  is different from one site to another. So now let’s discuss about some  of the <strong>free online gambling games </strong>from the site <a href="http://www.funny-games.biz/">funny-games.biz</a>,  and for today we’ll choose the Casino Blackjack. The version from this  site is a really nice one, a game that is really simple to play and also  realistic. The basic rules of Blackjack are quite simple…you first have  2 cards and you will have to sum the value of each card. The number  cards have the exact value written on them, and the other cards (J, Q  and K) have the value of 10.<br />
<center><br />
<a href="http://thechallengebase.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/free-online-gaming-gambling.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1631" title="free-online-gaming-gambling" src="http://thechallengebase.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/free-online-gaming-gambling.jpg" alt="" width="125" height="100" /></a><br />
</center><br />
There is also the A which can have the  value 1 or 11, depending how you want. Your goal is to be as close as  possible to 21, without exceeding this number. The best solution will be  to have exactly 21, and the perfect situation is when you have from the  first hand an A and one of the cards J, Q or K. In this case you have  exactly 21, and it is called “<a id="aptureLink_2gQhglYoGv" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blackjack">Blackjack</a>”. But let’s say that you are not  that lucky, and you have in your hand a 3 and a 8. In this case the  total value is 11, which is quite far from 21. So now you can choose to  “hit” and you will receive another card.<a href="http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcS6uMfmY4gGXFNsscqT27osTUBR98VCJkXBAJtmwsAUUG8HQco&#038;t=1&#038;h=167&#038;w=223&#038;usg=__oBdodmaCuqPlDDoT2ariiZyR_7k"><br />
</a><br />
<center><br />
<a href="http://thechallengebase.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/free-online-gaming-gambling-2.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1632" title="free-online-gaming-gambling-2" src="http://thechallengebase.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/free-online-gaming-gambling-2.jpg" alt="" width="143" height="107" /></a><br />
</center><br />
When  you consider that taking another card is risky, and it will end up in  exceeding 21, then you can choose to “stand”. Also when you have 2 cards  of the same number (for example two 8), you can choose to “split” them.  You always play against the dealer (or the computer), and your  objective is to have better cards than he does. You start with an  initial amount of virtual money, and before receiving the cards you will  have to bet. In the lower left side of the screen there are the chips  with values of 1, 5, 25, 100 and 500, and you can bet as much as you  want, in the limit of how money you have. For example if you have 1,000,  you can’t bet 1,200. If you win you will double up the amount of money  that you bet, and if you lose you will lose those money. So after all it  is a nice and simple game, which is really appreciated by players from  all over the world. In case you don’t have enough money to play it at a  real casino, we invite you to try this free online Blackjack game. Good  luck!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There  are all sorts of fun activities that you can do at your computer, and  one of them would be playing a video game. you can choose to buy a  complex  video game, install it into your computer and play it, but you  can also choose the <strong>online gaming. </strong>There are hundreds of sites on the internet that are offering <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Online_game">free online games</a> and you will find thousands of cool games. They have all sorts of  topics and all sorts of characters so that anyone can be satisfied and  find a cool game for them. Among the game categories you can find:  puzzle games, shooting games, adventure games, fighting games, sport  games, dress up games, role playing games, games for kids, games for  adults, racing games and many more others. Among the characters found in  these games there is practically anything, from imaginary creatures,  robots and heroes to real persons such as: singers, actors or  politicians. There are also many sites with this kind of games, and some  of the most famous are: miniclip.com, funny-games.biz or  freeonlinegames.com.</p>
<p>And for today we’ll discuss about some games from the site <a href="http://www.funny-games.biz/main.html">funny-games.biz</a>,  and since there are so many of them, we’ll simply choose some random  ones.  The games on this site are sorted on categories, and they are:  Arcade Games | Board Games | Card Games | Casino Games | Fighting Games |  Multiplayer Games | Puzzle Games | Racing Games | Shooting Games and  Sport Games. Let’s begin with a racing game, for example the one called  “Freeway fury”. Your goal here is to reach the finish line with your  car…but it is not just a regular racing game. along the way you can slam  into other cars, change your vehicle and gain ultra speed using your  nitro boost.<br />
<center><br />
<a href="http://thechallengebase.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/online-gaming2.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1628" title="online-gaming" src="http://thechallengebase.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/online-gaming2.jpg" alt="" width="146" height="104" /></a><br />
</center><br />
The controls are quite simple, and you will have to use the  left and right arrow keys to steer and the up arrow key to activate the  nitro boost. In most of the racing games the down arrow key is used for  breaking, but in this game you don’t have any breaks. The down arrow  key has another function, and this is to change vehicles. When you press  this key your guy will get on top of the car, and using the arrow keys  you can jump on other cars that are situated close to you. But be sure  to jump on a car that is close, otherwise you will fall on the road on  die.<br />
<center><br />
<a href="http://thechallengebase.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/online-gaming-21.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1629" title="online-gaming-2" src="http://thechallengebase.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/online-gaming-21.jpg" alt="" width="82" height="82" /></a><br />
</center><br />
When  trying to change vehicles the game will run in slow motion, so you can  use this as a method to break when another vehicle is in front of you.  But you can also smash into that vehicle, and this will bring you points  for the nitro boost. But be careful to not hit a car for many times,  because it will break down and you will lose. So try to change the  vehicles from time to time. As we said when you hit another car from  behind you will gain more points for the nitro boost, but this will also  slow you down a lot. So it doesn’t worth to apply this method. There is  a much better method to get nitro boost, and this is to drive on the  opposite side of the road. It is true that this is quite dangerous, and  if you hit a car that is coming in front of you, you will die…but it  will bring you a lot of nitro boost, so it worths the risk. And then you  can get back on the right side of the road, and use that nitro boost to  drive much faster. Jumping on other cars will also bring you points for  the nitro booster. In the right side of the screen you will see a line,  and that represents the track, and your position in the game. there is  quite a long road until the finish line, and from time to time there  will be checkpoints. The game also has a time limit, and you will need  to hurry up otherwise the time ends and you lose the game. whenever you  reach a checkpoint your time will be extended, and if you die you will  be able to start again from that checkpoint, and not from the beginning  of the game.</p>
<p><a href="http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:SFDtc6Ut_Qr8BM:b"><br />
</a></p>
<p>After all it is a really nice game, so we invite you to try it and to tell us your opinions about it. Have a nice day!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Online gaming</strong> appeared almost at the same time as the  internet. Once this technology to bring players together became  available, it gave birth to online communities and provided new means of  interaction between them. At first, <a title="online gaming" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Online_gaming" target="_blank"><strong>online gaming</strong></a> was limited localy then it expanded with the help of internet area  growth, enabling gamers around the world to connect one with each other  and play games. <strong>Online games</strong> can range from browser based text  games which you play with the help of your internet browser up to  complex graphics and virtual worlds populated by many players  simultaneously.</p>
<p>Some <strong>online games</strong> like World of Warcraft, Lineage II or  Anarchy Online charged its players with a monthly fee to subscribe to  their service, while other games offered a free to play scheme while  gaining profits from advertising and offering players extra features for  a fee. At the moment there are thousands of games to choose from, each  differing from the other.<br />

<a href="http://thechallengebase.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/online-gaming.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1612" title="online-gaming" src="http://thechallengebase.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/online-gaming.jpg" alt="" width="121" height="91" /></a><br />
</center><br />
While <strong>online gaming</strong> is considered to be a fun and entertaining  method to make time pass by there are also negative points about this  technology. The main problem is that many teenagers developed an  addication towards <strong>online games</strong>, some of them spending even 15 or more hours per day playing a game. People even created a stereotype for <strong>online gamers</strong>, they believe if you play <strong>online games</strong> you are a teenager with weight problems, higiene problems and you must  live in your parents basement or using the popular terms, a &#8220;basement  dweller&#8221;. That is absolutely not true. <strong>Online gaming</strong> is another  way of socialising and the ages for joining such a community has no  limits, often meeting both teenagers and adults around the virtual  worlds that games provides. Of course some communities targeting more  mature people then others.<br />

<a id="aptureLink_zdkodGowY8" style="margin: 0pt auto; text-align: center; display: block; padding: 0px 6px;" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Online%20game"><img style="border: 0px none;" title="Online game" src="http://placeholder.apture.com/ph/360x320_WikipediaArticle/" alt="" width="360px" height="320px" /></a><br />
</center><br />
Just because someone enjoys the <strong>online gaming</strong> doesn&#8217;t mean  that he has no social life or is different then us, by contrary, he just  uses different means to get to the same result. Most of the persons who  are attracted to <a title="Online gaming" href="http://switch.sjsu.edu/v7n1/articles/cindy02.html" target="_blank"><strong>online gaming</strong></a>,  develops the addiction because of the opportunity that it offers. In  the virtual games you can become something that you could never be in  real life, like a Knight who fights to rescue his kingdom, or you could  role play a character of different gender, possibilities being endless  with the help of imagination.</p>
<p><a href="http://thechallengebase.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/online-gaming-2.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1613" title="online-gaming-2" src="http://thechallengebase.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/online-gaming-2.jpg" alt="" width="283" height="278" /></a></p>
<p>The market that for this method of entertaining comes with a vast  list of games genre, allowing everyone despite their age to enjoy and  experience the online virtual worlds. Prices for subcriptions varies  depending on how complex the game is or how big its community is. A  successful <strong>online gaming</strong> community will always support each other  and will most likely do everything they can to improve the game while  increasing its lifetime. There are <strong>online gaming</strong> communities that survived almost 10 years, despite the countless problems that the game developers encountered.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There  all sorts of cool free online flash games on the internet, and they  have all kinds of topics and characters, so there will be a game for  everyone. For today we’ll discuss more about some <strong>free online arcade games, </strong>and we’ll begin with the one called “Joe the alien”, which can be found on <a href="http://www.funny-games.biz/arcade-games.html">this site</a>.  It is quite a fun game in which you will have to help Joe get to Earth.  He is a small and green alien from outer space, which is also an  extreme space jumper. You will have to use the arrow keys and jump from  one platform to another, and finally complete all the levels and reach  Earth. Along the way you will collect different items, and you can use  them by pressing the space bar. For each platform that you will jump on,  you will get a number of points. Among the  bonuses that you will find  there are starfalls – which will bring you many stars, time machine –  which will slow down the time and also the reverse bonus. This is not  actually a bonus, because it will make the game more difficult for you,  and it will swap left and right keys for a period of time. Along your  long fall you will also find stars that will bring you more points and  red pillows  that will bring you more thrust. To activate this trust  just press the up arrow key, and this will allow you to go high in the  air, or slow down your fall. Each level will begin from somewhere up,  and as you advance you will go lower and lower.</p>
<p>You will drop from one  platform to another in order to make as many points as possible. You  will land on different types of platforms, some are solid ones, but most  of them are rotating platforms. So you can’t stay for much time on  those platforms because they will rotate and you will fall down. There  are also some platforms that last just for a few seconds, and then  totally disappear. There is a bar in the right side of the screen that  will show you much left you have to fall until you reach the finish.  There are 7 levels to complete, each level containing a few sub-levels.  In the second level the platforms will have different colors, and they  will bring you different scores depending on the color. Try to jump on  platforms with the same color to get more combo scores. And also beware  of junk items that are flying around because they will injure Joe the  alien. As we said you have a <a id="aptureLink_rSqaLJIozm" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rocket">rocket</a> on your back which uses fuel to fly.  Those red pills that we mentioned are actually fuel tanks, so be sure  to collect as many as you can. And of course also collect the orange  stars. When you find a weapon use the space bar to activate it. When  those flying junk parts will hit you, you will lose life. But you can  refill this life by collecting health pills. Be careful to not lost the  entire fuel, because if you will fall and you have no fuel left, you  won’t be able to stop…unless you land on a platform. Otherwise you will  fall down a lot, and you will lose the game. after all it is an  interesting game, so we invite you to try it and tell us your opinions  about it.<br />
<center><br />
<a href="http://thechallengebase.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/free-arcade-gaming-online.gif"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1586" title="free-arcade-gaming-online" src="http://thechallengebase.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/free-arcade-gaming-online.gif" alt="" width="144" height="138" /></a><br />
</center><br />
So now let’s discuss about another <strong>free online arcade game, </strong>and  now we’ll choose the one called “Epic coaster”. This is a great and  addictive platform game and your goal is to stay alive on the roller  coaster for as much as possible. The track for this roller coaster is a  really unusual one, and it will have a lot of broken tracks. But luckily  you  have some engines on your roller coaster, and you will be able to  jump from one track to another, and avoid falling down. The controls are  really simple, and all you have to do is press one key to jump. You can  use either the left mouse button, or the spacebar or the UP arrow  key…they all perform the same thing which is to jump. There will be some  bigger distances between broken tracks, so in this case you will have  to hold the jump key pressed for a longer time &#8211; the longer you hold the  jump button, the longer your jump is. The great part about the game is  that there are 80 achievements that you can unlock. The graphic of the  game is quite simple, but it looks really nice. The graphic on the  screen will be combined with some epic sounds, which will make this  rollercoaster ride a really interesting one. It is an <a id="aptureLink_SYj8T3Kbnw" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arcade%20game">arcade game</a>, so  you will play until you die (in this case fall down), and then you can  start all over again. If you land on the edge of one track you will get a  perfect jump bonus. Try to get multiple perfect jumps in a row to  increase your combo. When you will unlock achievements you will increase  your base score multiplier, so if you will play after you have unlocked  a lot of achievements you will be able to increase your high score  faster and easier. Try to maximize your points and compete for a spot on  the leader board. The game takes place at night, and everything is  quite dark, so you will have to concentrate a lot. The jumps will get  really difficult when there are a few small platforms right next to one  another, and you will have to jump short and quickly.<br />
<center><br />
<a href="http://thechallengebase.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/free-arcade-gaming-online.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1587" title="free-arcade-gaming-online" src="http://thechallengebase.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/free-arcade-gaming-online.jpg" alt="" width="93" height="136" /></a><br />
</center><br />
And  speaking of achievements, here are some of them: getting started – jump  for the first time, say cheese – get your picture taken, tourist – pose  for 10 pictures, full force – performs a jump with maximum power, baby  jumper – jump with minimum power, on the edge – land on the edge of a  track, perfect noob – land 1 perfect jump, 10 %, 20 %, 30 % etc – when  unlocking 10 %, 20 % etc of the achievements, rest in peace – when you  die, practice practice – die 10 times, 1000 meters – travel 1000 meters,  2000 meters for traveling this distance, and it can go as high as 15000  meters, old school – use the keyboard to jump, lazy – use the mouse to  jump, insomniac – play during the night, loud noises – watch 5  fireworks, pyro – watch 20 fireworks, buzzed – watch 1 flyby, top gun –  watch 10 flybys, it’s shiney – get 1 sparkle, magic dust – get 10  sparkles, try to get them all – look at the achievement screen, people  read these? – read the instructions, 30 mph – survive for 30 seconds, 50  mph &#8211;  survive for 60 seconds,</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There  are so many fun activities that you can do at the computer and on the  internet, but sometimes it is still possible that you get bored. So  whenever this happens, you can choose to play a video game. If you  already have an installed game into your computer, it is really simple –  you just enter that game and play it. But if you don’t have any  installed game, and you don’t wish to buy one, there is a solution for  you too – to play a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Online_game">free online game</a>.  These are usually small games, with a simple graphic and game play, and  they are made with the flash technology. There are thousands of them on  the internet, on many sites, and they have all sorts of topics. Some of  them are funny and silly, while others are more serious, and require  concentration and intelligence. From the “serious” games category, the  most popular ones are of course the puzzle games. They usually have very  simple controls (most of the times you need to use just the mouse to  click on the screen and perform different tasks) but they are  quite  complex and will require some thinking and concentration.</p>
<p>But the puzzle games can still be fun to play, and for today we’ll discuss more about some <strong>free online Christmas puzzle games. </strong>And a site specialized just in games of this kinds is: <a href="http://freechristmasgames.com/">http://freechristmasgames.com/</a><strong> . </strong>It  has a few games that are Christmas related, and among them you can  find: jigsaw puzzle games, memory puzzle games, slider puzzle games,  Sokoban games, Mah Jong games, card games and some others. In case you  prefer the jigsaw puzzle games, you can choose to play the “Nutcracker  puzzle game”. this is quite a nice game where you have to build together  the image of some Christmas gifts – a bunch of wooden colored soldiers.  So simply drag and drop the pieces in order to form the entire image.  In the upper side of the screen you will have the buttons for the game.  first there is the “shuffle” button that will allow you to rearrange the  pieces and start all over again, then there is the “hint” button, that  will show you an arrow between 2 pieces that go together, and then there  is the “options” button. When pressing it, there will be a new window,  where you can make all the setting for the game. you can select the  number of pieces for the puzzle, and they can begin as low as 9 and can  go as high as 150. So if you want to make the puzzle really difficult,  choose a large number of pieces. You can also choose the shape of the  pieces, between the classic ones and squares. You can choose to toggle  the sound on or off, and also the difficulty – easy, medium or  difficult. Near these buttons that we mentioned you can also see a  palette of colors, and if you click on any of those colors, you will  change the color of the background of the puzzle. So after al it is  quite a nice jigsaw puzzle game.<br />

<a href="http://thechallengebase.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/free-online-christmas-puzzle-games.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1582" title="free-online-christmas-puzzle-games" src="http://thechallengebase.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/free-online-christmas-puzzle-games.jpg" alt="" width="120" height="101" /></a><br />
</center><br />
There  are a few more other jigsaw puzzle games on this site, with all sorts of  nice Christmas images. But now let’s move on to a different game, for  example the Memory puzzle game. Here you will have a board covered with  red rectangles and you will have to clear all of them and uncover the  picture. With each play you can only turn 2 blocks, and you will have to  match the rectangles with the same image. Whenever you will match 2  images, they will disappear from the board, and you will uncover a part  of the entire image. The game has 12 matches, so be sure to find all of  them, in the smallest time possible. It is quite a nice game, that will  put your visual memory to the test. And finally you will unlock a  beautiful image of a <a id="aptureLink_UI1vRjB02Q" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christmas">Christmas</a> tree surrounded by gifts. So now let’s  play another one of the <strong>free online Christmas puzzle games </strong>from  this site, and now we’ll choose the “Slider puzzle”. Here you must click  on a piece to move it into the empty slot and your goal will be to  arrange the pieces in the correct position and form the entire image.  And of course the image is one related with Christmas. It may take some  time to complete this game, but after you are ready you will be really  pleased.<br />
<center><br />
<a id="aptureLink_3RayvRgdIM" style="margin: 0pt auto; text-align: center; display: block; padding: 0px 6px;" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christmas"><img style="border: 0px none;" title="Christmas" src="http://placeholder.apture.com/ph/360x320_WikipediaArticle/" alt="" width="360px" height="320px" /></a><br />
</center><br />
Let’s  move on to another game, for example the “Sokoban” from this site. You  may already know this game, but this is a special version, made for  Christmas. Your goal is to push all the gifts on the socks into the  corner of the screen. Simply use the arrow keys to move the little Santa  around, and go next to the gifts and push them on the socks. The rule  is that Santa is only allowed to get behind the gifts and push them, but  he can’t pull them. Also you can push only one gift at a time, and if a  gift gets next to a wall, you won’t be able to push it in that  direction anymore. You will have to think before acting in this game,  because if you hurry up you might end up with no more possible moves  left. Sometimes you will first have to move certain gifts in order to  make room for others, so think of the places that are easy to reach and  which are difficult to reach. So push the gifts that are more hard to  reach to first. Sometimes you will have to place gifts near target  positions, and then make other moves  before pushing them on the socks.  If you will make mistakes there is no turning back, and you will have to  start the game all over again. So be careful, and think before making a  move. For all the <a id="aptureLink_aFJSkHSGil" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sokoban">Sokoban</a> games the basic rule is to have patience and  practice a lot. So good luck!<br />
<center><br />
<a id="aptureLink_TGyWw0f1SA" style="margin: 0pt auto; text-align: center; display: block; padding: 0px 6px;" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sokoban"><img style="border: 0px none;" title="Sokoban" src="http://placeholder.apture.com/ph/360x320_WikipediaArticle/" alt="" width="360px" height="320px" /></a><br />
</center><br />
So here  were some examples of some nice puzzle games that are related to this  wonderful holiday – Christmas. In case you know some more others, we  invite you to tell us all about them. Have a nice day!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you  don’t want to spend money on buying an advanced video game for your  computer, and also if you don’t want to spend many hours or days before  completing that game, you can choose to play a free online flash game.  These games are found for free on the internet, and they have quite a  simple graphic with a simple game play. So this means that they won’t  last for such a long time, and you can complete a game in just a few  minutes and then move on to another one. And because there are thousands  of games on the internet, you will always have what to play.</p>
<p>They  are really diversified, with all sorts of topics and characters, and  some of the games are inspired by real events or holidays. So you can  find Halloween games, Easter games, Christmas games, Thanksgiving games,  Valentine’s Day games and so on. Today we’ll discuss about some <strong>free online puzzle games </strong>which are specially made for the love holiday which is Valentine’s Day. You can find many of them <a href="http://www.primarygames.com/holidays/valentines/games.htm">here</a>,  and on many more other sites too. So let’s discuss more about some of  the love games found on this site, and we’ll begin with the one called  “Valentine’s Day word search”. This is a nice game which has the purpose  of finding different words. You will have in front of you a big box  filled with random letters. But they are not quite random, because some  of them are forming some words. In the right side of the screen you will  see a list of words, and these are the words that you have to find in  the pile of letters. And of course there will be words that are specific  to Valentine’s Day, such as: love, candy, chocolate, hearts, pink,  roses, cupid, pink, hugs, kisses and so on.<br />
<center><br />
<a href="http://thechallengebase.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/free-on-line-puzzle-games-2.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1554" title="free-on-line-puzzle-games-2" src="http://thechallengebase.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/free-on-line-puzzle-games-2.jpg" alt="" width="404" height="323" /></a><br />
</center><br />
Just click on one letter and  then hold the mouse button pressed and drag the mouse in any direction.  There will be a blue shape covering the letters that you want, and you  can go as far as you find the word. You can find words in any direction:  horizontally, vertically and diagonally and some words are even written  from right to left, which of course is not the correct direction. Once  you find a word it will remain highlighted and it will disappear from  the list of words. There is no time limit so it’s not necessary to hurry  up. If you can’t find one of the words at all, you can click on it from  the list, and then press on the “Find words” button, and that word (or  words) will be highlighted automatically. After completing the game you  can press on the “rescramble” button and start it all over again, but  the words will be the same. So have fun!</p>
<p><a id="aptureLink_yPIB8vdn3k" style="margin: 0pt auto; text-align: center; display: block; padding: 0px 6px;" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valentine%27s%20Day"><img style="border: 0px none;" title="Valentine's Day" src="http://placeholder.apture.com/ph/360x320_WikipediaArticle/" alt="" width="360px" height="320px" /></a><a href="http://gadgetophilia.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/valentines-day.png"><br />
</a></p>
<p>So now  let’s move on to another game, and this time we’ll take the “Valentine  hunt”. In this one you will have in front of you an image that contains  many items and persons, and your objective will be to find 5 heart  shapes in this image. Whenever you click on a heart, or anywhere else on  the screen, the internet page will refresh and it will say to you a  message. When you find a heart you will see this, and you will also be  announced how many hearts you still have to find and when you click in  any other place you will find out if you are getting closer or further  away from a heart. When you are getting close to a heart it will say  “You’re getting warmer”, and when you are far away it will say “You’re  getting colder”. It is an interesting game, but it can be quite annoying  because each time you click a new page will load, and it’s the same  when you return to the image. And it will be even more annoying if you  have a bad internet connection <img src='http://thechallengebase.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> .<br />
<center><br />
<a href="http://thechallengebase.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/free-on-line-puzzle-games-2.png"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1555" title="free-on-line-puzzle-games-2" src="http://thechallengebase.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/free-on-line-puzzle-games-2.png" alt="" width="309" height="280" /></a><br />
</center><br />
So now  let’s see another game, for example the brand new “Search for love”  game. This is a cool point and click puzzle game in which you will have  to find misaligned hears and place them back into their position. Use  the mouse to click on them, and then they will get back in the correct  position. If you find all 9 hearts from one image you will also get a  time bonus. You will have a limited allotted time and you will have to  quickly find and click on the polygon cut outs that are shifted out of  place. Correct clicks will bring you more points while wrong clicks will  make you lose time. So be careful where you click, and don’t just click  randomly on the screen. You will easily find the polygon cuts that are  not in their place, either by search for heart shapes on the screen,  either by figuring out by yourself which are the places from the image  that are not looking correct. You can easily find most of the shapes,  but it is quite difficult to find all 9 of them and make a perfect  score. There will be all sorts of cool images that are related to love,  such as flowers, teddy bears, lovers, candles, birds, toys, candies and  others. There are 10 rounds, and after that you will find your final  score. If you think you made a really good one, you can submit it and  compare it with others. Good luck!</p>

<p>Let’s  see one more puzzle game from this site, for example the one called  “Valentine’s Cupcakes”. This is a happy environment game and pink  cupcakes are floating around a world covered with grass. What you need  to do is collect the pink cupcakes by clicking on them and they will  become hearts. Then collect the hearts, but watch out for ChocoBatz. If  he touches you 3 times the level will end. Use the environment rotator  to find the cupcakes that are missing. The game is quite fun, and will  test your agility with the mouse. You will have to move the cursor  quickly on all the cupcakes that you see, and collect them, but also be  very careful to avoid the Chocobatz. They are those brown things, and  they will fly really close to the other cupcakes and red hearts. So you  will need to watch out and not click on them. Have fun!</p>
<p>Here were just some examples of <strong>free online puzzle games </strong>for  Valentine’s Day, but of course there are many more others on this site  and on other sites too. Just search for them and if you find some others  that are cool and worth playing, tell us all about them.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you are bored and you are looking for a fun activity to occupy your time, then you can choose to play a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Online_game">free online flash game</a> 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).</p>
<p>So today we are going to discuss about some <strong>puzzle and math online games.</strong> 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  sorts 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.<br />

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. If 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 will 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!<br />

Now  let’s see another fun puzzle game, for example Lifeguard Larry Deluxe.  In this one you will play the role of Larry the lifeguard, and you will  have to rescue the fat kid that is drowning in the swimming pool. You  will have only 1 minute left, so you will need to hurry. Just use the  mouse to click on the screen and to perform different activities. You  have 4 options that you can use, and these are: look, get, use and hit.  You will also have a few items near the pool that you can use in  different ways. There will be a specific ending for each action that you  do, so be sure to try all of them. And here are some of the endings we  discovered so far. The most simple one if you just click on the swimming  pool in order to go there and rescue the kid. Larry will jump into the  water, but he will jump so powerful that he will break his neck and die.  So the message will be “you lose!”. This version will happen when you  click on the pool with the “look” button activated. But if you click on  the pool with the “use”  button, you will also jump in the pool. But  this time there will be a shark appearing right when you jump, and he  will eat you.<br />

<a href="http://thechallengebase.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/online-puzzle-and-math-games-2.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1553" title="online-puzzle-and-math-games-2" src="http://thechallengebase.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/online-puzzle-and-math-games-2.jpg" alt="" width="309" height="309" /></a><br />

So again the message is “you lose”. If you want to try a  new version, just click on the restart button. If you will go next to  the wheelbarrow, and remove it, you will find a bag of cement. Here you  have two options – to collect the bag and use it unopened, or to break  it. In case you take it unopened, you can go near the swimming pool and  throw it at the fat kid. But he will immediately go down, and again he  will die and you lose the game. You can also break the cement bag using  the “hit” button, and then go with it at the swimming pool. Now you will  fill the entire pool with cement, and the kid will be trapped in it and  die. The message now will be “You lose! Congratulations! You now have a  pool that can double as an overflow parking lot”. Another method that  you can try would be to collect the harpoon found on a wall, and then  use it to take the kid out of the swimming pool. The good news will be  that the kid didn’t drown, but the bad news is that you shot a harpoon  through his head. So these were the methods that we found so far, but  there are probably some others too. If you know some other possible  endings to this game, please tell us all about them. So these were just a few examples, but of course there are many more other cool <strong>puzzle and math online games </strong>that  are just waiting for you to play them. Whenever you discover some  others that are cool and worth trying, please tell us all about them.  Have a nice day!</p>
