What's your favorite online '5 minute' game

I don’t like games where you’re required to spend hours playing or games that require collecting stuff or ones that have too many levels that you complete. I like the simple games that I can kill a few minutes on in between doing other things. Plus I bore easily playing games.

So I’m looking for fun simple game suggestions. Right now one of my favorite online games is Bloody Day I to give you an idea of what I’m talking about. But it doesn’t have to be a shooting game.

There was another one I used to love, but lost the link (pout), that involved a girl who created a bubble around her and when it got big enough she jumped up and used it to land on as many ladybugs as possible. I think it was a japanese game - it was beautiful and soothing.

There are thousands of flash games out there. What’s your favorite five minute time waster?

I’m rather partial to Entanglement, although for some reason it hasn’t been working properly for me in the last week.

Word sandwich!

I doubt they’re still around…but I used to spend a lot of time playing a game of go-stop or pictionary at Yahoo games.

Three-minute quickie Boggle games.

There are plenty on Orisinal.

Winter Bells. I win.

Woohoo! Bookmarked. And I do love Winter Bells.

Many of the games at Sporcle.com.

Wow, thanks I love this site.

Bejeweled Blitz on Facebook. My girlfriend agrees. If I could check time logged on that game, I wouldn’t.

Let’s see… off the top of my head:

Dice Wars is a great time-killer. Time didn’t stand a chance.

And Canabalt is so addictive it should be illegal.

With out a doubt my favorite is Picross 2

At the risk of showing my geezer status, I’ll say that crosswords, acrostics, jigsaw puzzles and that sort of thing are where I go to kill a few minutes. I start my day that way, in fact. When there’s a reason for momentary diversion, I use Free Cell to kill even less time.

The game described in the OP is “Bugs” on Orisinal. Orisinal.com - Bugs

Other Orisinal games I like:

The Pond Orisinal.com - The Pond

Hydrophobia (the little frog who can’t swim) Orisinal.com - Hydrophobia

The puzzles at this site are fun for a few minutes. I tend to start my online day working the weekday

This next one is a once-a-week thing that’s always just the right blend of difficult and rewarding.

Today’s (this week’s) is worth the solving.

Came in to say this.

After much practice, I can name 50 of the 53 countries of Africa. :smiley:
