Frontline Tower Defense

Frontline Tower Defense is one of the more difficult TD games I've played. And that's on the easy setting! It looks pretty standard... Open playing field, creeps moving through it. But the creeps are deceptively difficult, and the towers are a bit on the pricey side. Think you have what it takes? Go find out!

Free Rice

Ok, so I didn't post yesterday. A thousand apologies. I got a little caught up in a different project, not that that's an excuse, but it's still the truth. So, two games today! Here's the first:

Free Rice is a charity and a fun vocabulary-building game all in one. The game itself is fairly simple. They give you a word and you chose the correct one of four possible definitions. You answer correctly? Next word is a bit harder. Get it wrong? Next word is easier. Doesn't get much more straight forward than that. But here's the cool part. For each correct answer, 20 grains of rice are donated to the United Nations World Food Program. Now, 20 grains might not seem like much, but the more you play, the more it accumulates. In fact, yesterday alone, 139,444,840 grains were donated. So next time someone tells you that playing games online is a waste of time, send them to Free Rice!

Go-Go Gourmet

Part hidden object game, part Diner Dash-like service game, Go-Go Gourmet is the type of game that will appeal to a wide variety of audiences. Your Grandfather has retired and left you his restaurant. There are a few problems though -- the place is a dump, you have no money, and you need to learn to cook. Take jobs in increasingly complex restaurants, learn skills and recipes and earn the money you'll need to remodel the old place. Bon appetit!

News: Featured Games is on a semi-hiatus. I may post games here as I see fit, but it won't be regularly, at least for a while.
