Carrot is a soothing time-waster featuring bunnies and puppies

So... you've got a cute pet rabbit, and rabbits like carrots. That makes Carrot rabbit heaven, if there is such a thing: The game takes place on a long, lush lawn, with a line of carrots stretching into the distance, as far as the eye can see. Mmmm, carrots. But of course, this wouldn't be much of a game if you were just running along, eating carrot after carrot. That wouldn't be very ...

World's Oldest Time-Waster? Lunar Lander

It won't win any beauty contests, and it has a pretty weak storyline unless you have a magnificent imagination, but Lunar Lander may well be one of the oldest time-wasters in existence. High-school student Jim Storer, obsessed with the Apollo missions -- and obviously inspired by what he'd witnessed along with the rest of the world, 40 years ago today -- took his inspiration to class in the fall ...

Using an interesting blend of real-world video and cartoon-enemy overlays, ToonCrisis is a fun Flash shooter with an original soundtrack of punk-ish/ska songs to keep you motivated.

Use the simple grid to pick notes to be played and drag the bar below to set the speed. The song endlessly loops, but if you are clever you can mingle the ...

Zip Bear Town - Today's Time Waster

Ok, Zip Bear Town isn't revolutionary. It's essentially just Mahjong with ultra-cute tiles and great Japanese sound effects but, that doesn't stop it from being so damned loveable. The object of the game is just like a simplified Mahjong; match tiles to make them go away. The timer resets every time you make a match, and there is absolutely zero chance of pausing (until you beat a level) so, ...
