Anti-Idle: The Game. When you just want to waste time. Lots and lots and lots of time.

I found that about three days ago, and I resisted posting it in here because I didn't want to ruin people's lives.

As somebody in the comments section said, it's a completionists nightmare. I can't discern that there is much real skill involved, it's just about getting the next upgrade, achievement, quest, etc.

Well, yea, but this isn't the "A lot of skill is involved in this thread" thread. This is the "A complete waste of time is found within this thread" thread. And it's hard to deny that Anti-Idle is a time waster.

That was just to let people know what they were getting into. The sad face was because I'm addicted to this type of game. It's definitely a time waster.

I've been kind of plodding slowly along, but I just jumped from level 120-231 in about an hour. The boosts really are effective, and you can easily recuperate the cost with the button.

I pretty much spend my time idling in the battle arena. You get exp and coins from it, as well as "in game" exp and coins. So it's a win-win.

This was stupidly fun

My best is 1850 with the tractor and 2145 with the fast car and a dozen or so tries with each. For the fast one, I had it spend a lot of its time up above the screen, by giving it some speed and then finishing with a jump ramp. While there are clouds above the screen, they seem to be fewer and only just above it. If you move your browser so that the game is all the way to the left of your screen, you'll find you can draw roads way off to the right, well out of the game area.

Another very good puzzle game. The mechanics were pretty simple, but there was quite a variety of interesting, challenging puzzles, all of which were pretty easily doable once you figured them out. That is, there were none that took super timing, and there is a slow-motion mode (hold down the mouse) which made the timing ones fairly easy, once you figured out what it was you had to do.

Aquatomic
This is a fun and decently challenging Sokoban style game for OS X users. You slide parts of molecules around. Freeware!

Pardus

I guess nobody ever mentioned this game. I played it a few years ago, and I stopped because it was distracting to my studies (same time as I took a hiatus from the GL). Anyway, it's detrimental that I should think about it again at this time of my life, but I thought if anybody else was interested, we could have a GL alliance/guild.

I'm in the Artemis universe as a Union Keldonian.

A clever puzzle game which is more complex than it seems at first. I'm currently stuck on #15 but I haven't given it a lot of time, yet.

I had fun playing this: http://armorgames.com/play/14920/sky-kings-wars

The final boss, though, was disappointingly easy, once you realize the trick.

A fun take on jigsaw puzzles. Most of them are probably pretty easy, but there were a few that my mind absolutely refused to follow.
