|  | Favorite "Five Minute Games" « Thread Started on Aug 9, 2005, 8:22am » | |
There are some games that are good “five minute games.” To me this means I can either complete a whole game in just a few minutes, or it is easy to pause and restart at another time. I guess that means the game is short, or is untimed, or that it doesn’t continue to build momentum (and adrenaline) that will be lost if you have to stop.
A quick list of my fave quickie games is:
Thieves (an all time favorite, of which I never tire.) http://www.thievesandkings.com/TandK/Pages/PDADownloads.htm
MarblesSquared (one of the very best freeware games, in my opinion.) http://www.ihatemusic.com/
Escape (gets the blood going, yet is very quick—too quick in my case!) http://www.clieuk.co.uk/escape.htm
Text Twist (since each round is 2 minutes, it is easy to stop after each segment.) http://www.astraware.com/palm/word/texttwist/?skucode=0034-000-0016
What game do you pick up if you just have a few minutes to play?

As 5 minutes games, I like anything with levels (1 level == 5 minutes)
Puzzles: Aargon, Vexed, Tumble, Pixelus Relax: P-Jongg, Picture Logic Action: Bike or Die

3d Pong! - just as its name describes
Inverti - Othello clone
Earth Defender - Space invaders on steroids
Bzzz! - Catch as many flies as you can, before they bite you.
Coconut Fern - Connect four clone
