A simple, yet addictive game designed for the iPhone, but (as with all iPhone / iPod touch specific games) you can play on your desktop using Safari 3. In this case you can also play in other browsers too.

Place your tiles around the board and try to make squares with them. The bigger the better. You score more for diagonal squares.

Go play MetaSquares

A simply addictive game this one. Simple idea, as more and more bombs arrive in the circle you have to click on each one to set them off. If you set one off that is touching another of the same colour they’ll be set off too and you score more points.

Great little game. Go play Flashbombs

All you students out there should be damn good at this one.

Your barmaid / barman slides you your drinks, and you gotta get them down you as fast as possible, without letting any slide off the table.

The aim of the game is to get as battered as possible!

We’re loving this gem of a game. So far we’ve only managed level 4 with 122 drinks. But by that time the barmaid was starting to look pretty hot ;)

The best bit about this game? It’s even cheaper than the student’s union!

You’re a bug. A green bug.

You’re running on a telegraph wire. No idea why.

You’re running along, but there are some hungry Crows out to get ya.

Not good.

Luckily, they can only get you if you’re on the same wire as they’re sitting on.

Jump from one wire to another, and the nasty crows can’t get you.

This great little game starts simply enough, but boy does it get harder!

As more and more crows sit down to dine it becomes increasing more difficult to avoid them, and if they weren’t enough to worry about there’s also the occasional flying insect that seems to be hell bent on helping the crows eat you!
