Lozenge and Hampshire (http://www.frontiernet.net/~adani/lozenge/mystery/#). A set of adventure games done in DHTML, so you don't need anything beyond a fairly modern browser to play. The best things ever! (For the purposes of this post) I also qui... [Read More]
Rally Championship Xtreme - Vroom vroom!! Right four tightens into blind square left, don't cut, ditch! Crash bang explode! (It's a fun game, anyway. Nothing like driving a car round a forest like a maniac and losing control at every other corner!)... [Read More]

I like the colours! Much better than generic-o white/grey or "we can't be arsed coming up with decent colours so we'll just go with the black look" black. Well done to whoever "did" the colours, they look great. (And on a related... [Read More]
