kongregate has some great web games. I personally like Monster's Den 2. It's completely addictive for like 30 hours, then you totally get bored with it.

Sonny is also quite fun.

I actually found this game on Newgrounds first (although which first recieved it I'm unsure of), but I'm fairly sure Sonny is pretty much everywhere now.

But this was fun until I got frustrated with drawing the exact wrong cards I needed to win the game while the enemy piled up card after card that I couldn't dispel or resist. I eventually gave up and left. The multiplayer option the creator is considering sounds like great fun though.

I really like Monster's Den too, but it couldn't hold my attention forever. I'm surprised at how mediocre Kongai is considering it's their flagship game. I figured their thought process was the game was going to be so good that people would play games they didn't even like just to get the cards. But I can't imagine that happening.

Also played Sonny and Mardek and all those games when you don't have enough time to finish a Dom3 turn.

Ah good, it lives! I sent out the link to the Newgrounds version this week only to get a bunch of "Where's the game?" responses. Checking it out Newgrounds had killed it!

That was a lot of fun! Not nearly hard enough, but fun, nonetheless. Once I'd got past the Deep Ones, I don't think I lost a single round. But definitely an enjoyable 2 hours

If you're a sucker for tower defense games (like me), I found GemCraft to be fairly entertaining. Colorful explosions get me every time. >.>

I love tower defense games. Gem Tower Defense is another good one-similar to GemCraft, but with a somewhat different play.

I found gem tower defense to be somewhat strange and not as action packed as desktop tower defense (if you avoid sending the critters back and forth by placing and replacing a block).

Yeah it is kind of oddball. I wish regular gems in it were upgradeable, instead of just downgradeable. As it is, it's really difficult to get some of the more powerful gems, so I end up just building malachites, star rubies, silver and (occasionally) jade towers in Extreme mode. Considering that there's about 16 different tower types, maybe more, that becomes a little monotonous after the 30th round-not to mention, makes Extreme mode exponentially harder to beat.
