Music Cube

Oh joy! Monday once more! And what better way to kick off a brand new week than by taking this musical quiz? Choose your favourite decade and artist/album/song and solve the sometimes somewhat farfetched picture riddles. (see pic...) Seems to be an advergame for a mobile searchengine called taptu.

Ongaku

I just love the overly complex and quite unnecessary intro and story to this game! Gamewise it's another "time the right keys to the tune"-game.

Name the Game

Time to perk up your ears and go retro. Name the game by matching the ingame soundeffect to the classic videogame. Hmmm, thought I would nail most of 'em considering my age, but dang! I only got 7 out of 18... Could be that my hearings going perhaps...

Super Crazy Guitar Maniac Deluxe II

Guitar Hero Light for you who can't afford the real thing. Hit the right keys and combinations at the right time to fill your score. Rock on!

Frets on Fire

NB - download only!

Have you, as I have, been a bit envious and annoyed of all your friends that own a PS2- console and just won't stop raving about Guitar Hero? Here is the remedy! Like a bat out of hell, straight from our finnish neighbours comes Frets on Fire. Pick up you keyboard as a guitar and hit those riffs and heavy metal licks! There's three unique songs in the download, but if you browse around some, you might find the whole bunch of wellknown songs from the previously mentioned consolegame for download as well. Beware of the fact that it doesn't seem to work on Macs and as being freeware it has a few bugs and glitches apart from totally eating up your RAM. (And the fact that some anti-virus software thinks it's a trojan...) But DAMN! It's fun!

I might be breaking some new ground and/or unwritten rules here by posting a game that is neither online or browserbased but a downloadable one. But I'll be damned if this isn't one of the absolutely most addictive and fun ones I've ever played. And therefore I just could'nt help but to post it. Rock on!

Ollies Dance Experience

Great game, this is how Dance Dance Revolution would have looked like on 8-bit Nintendo. Nice synthesizer music and some other pop-music too! A challenging gameplay with variety. I've got canned heat in my feet to-night bay-be!

Blind Shooter

Waiting for the screenshot to load, you're waiting in vain. That IS the screenshot. Title of the game is Blind Shooter and that's what you are. Headphones is almost a must, I tried it with stereo speakers but that's almost impossible. Listen for sounds and turn left or right depending on what you hear, space to fire!

Fun Pods

This is absolutely hilarious and left me with a BIG smile for the rest of the day. I'ts simple enough, you just have to repeat Bado's (the left chimp in the pic) bongobeat on your own set of bongos. either click on the drum or use left and right arrowkeyes. As you master one rythm, Bado will play another, slightly more difficult. Maybe not much of a game, more like a web toy, but really entertaining. Enough monkey business - go bang your drum mr Krupa!
