AB_Websites for Playing Free Online Games

With all these triple-A titles launching left and right, we gamers sometimes choose to deviate from the hype and connect to our roots—browser gaming. Yes, the memory of returning home and firing up that dial-up internet access to play some browser games is genuinely bone-chilling.

Point n clicks, stick figure fights, and more with these browser game websites!

Thanks to progressive technology, we don’t need to worry about our internet access. Go further in performance and connection as you play with the ASUS ROG Rapture GT-AX11000 powered by the fastest PLDT Home Fiber. And with a stable internet connection, you can try to play both your usual game and browser games in one go–perhaps while waiting for your match to start.

Late nights and early mornings have probably been filled with this lovable program. Bringing you exciting characters such as Courage the cowardly dog, Fin the human and Jake the dog, Samurai Jack, and more, Cartoon Network has always been the go-to for fun. This extends itself as an online platform that kids of all ages can enjoy—nice! Cartoon Network is a free-to-play online platform that features all the old and new characters that live in CN’s universe. So if you are keen on controlling your favorite character in an adventure, investigative, action game, this is definitely a must-visit.

Miniclip is one of the biggest icons when it comes to online browser games, as it holds a massive selection of arcade, action, role-playing games, and more. This website was initially launched in 2001 and has provided 21 years of entertainment for all ages. I remember firing this website up in my computer lab room whenever we finished an exercise and playing with my friends.

Speaking of icons for online browser games, Y8 definitely has to be included in this list. This website provides several choices for both single and multiplayer games and is home to well-known games such as Happy Wheels and Stick Fighter. Even the most popular streamers or  YouTubers played these flash games. If you just want a quick game, you can load this platform and start playing, as no sign-in is required.

 

Kongregrate

As one of the less known titles, Kongregate is still a kicking website to play flash games. Despite being required to log in via a Facebook account, it provides a variety of online games that can be enjoyed for hours on end. If you want a taste, one of its featured games is Dungeoneers, Swordfighter, and Poker Quest RPG. One of the great things about this website is that it shows the top games of the month, so if you feel stale, you will always have a good recommendation.

 

Pogo

Last but not least is Pogo. This online browser platform holds beloved brands such as Hasbro and PopCap, which means you are granted access to childhood favorites like Plants Vs. Zombies, Scrabble, or Monopoly. Like the rest of the other platforms, Pogo can provide hours of entertainment; however, the user must log in to play. Can you hear that PVZ theme song? Go play today.

Despite the rise of Battle Royales, FPS, and MMORPGs, gamers would tend to tap into the memory of how they started out playing. It feels nice and simple without all the complex mechanics to keep in mind. Thankfully, these platforms are still growing and have a substantial community that runs them.
