What is Your Strategy?


Playing free online games can be fun and silly; but it can also sharpen your reasoning skills and powers of observation. Who knew? Here’s what I found while looking for strategy games on each of the top three online sites.

The Strategy of Addicting Games Online


All time favorite strategy games on the first site numbered no less than 50; and that’s just the all time favorites. Army/war settings, school/classroom, racing and several strangely named miscellaneous games were among the selections. Some of these games seemed a bit childish in their animation which immediately steers me away. Of course if you have children whose brains you want to tease, these would probably be a great choice. I, personally, enjoy having to search, reason and solve my way through castles, graveyards or detective stories. Those games are out there (more adult themed) but I couldn’t find them.

Bgames Strategy is in It’s Numbers


91 strategy games take up almost 3 pages on the free online games website, Bgames. Many of them followed suit along with AG’s strategy games but I was very pleased to find more of the adult themed (less cartoony) games centered on castles, wizards, and the occult. Some of these games tend to take a long time to load; Bgames even warns you of this ahead of time so that you’re not sitting around waiting if you don’t have the time. This is due to the fact that some of these strategy games are huge! Detailed special effects, involved story lines and challenging mind bogglers, like Rome, weren’t built in a tiny little amount of time.

The last site had no results when I executed a search for strategy games, which is unfortunate. Apparently they’re a little foggy on what kinds of games are all the rage.
