1. Galaxy Jones
by Phil Riley
(2023)
Average member rating: (7 ratings)

David Welbourn says:

In this game, you play as Galaxy Jones, the solar system's greatest hero. The evil industrialist, Admiral P. X. Thallium, has invited you to rescue Europa Callisto, the famous singer and actress, from the top of the Viking Building in New Reykjavik, Mars. You expect an impressive number of killer robots, but they'll be no match for Galaxy Jones.

2. Risorgimento Represso

Average member rating: (44 ratings)

David Welbourn says:

You play as an Oxbridge student who, during a particularly boring lecture, falls through a green portal under their desk into the cluttered library of the wizard Ninario. Ninny was trying to summon a wizardly apprentice from the Oxbridge University in his reality but got you by mistake. Mm-yes. So you're going to be a wizard's apprentice until he can figure out how to send you back.

In this comedic game, you play as a cat named Jacques. You and your throwable ferret partner, Ralph, are private investigators in need of a case. Soon, you're hired to find a thief who's been stealing art and artifacts all over San Francisco!

4. Jesse Stavro's Doorway
by Marshal Tenner Winter
(2014)
Average member rating: (11 ratings)

David Welbourn says:

You play as Jordan Hickey, a young man who uses unstable Doors and Keys to travel in time and space. People like yourself are called Tourists. You're looking for your friend, Jesse Stavro, who's been on the run from more than one government agency in the last year. He might be hiding amongst the potheads in the faded yellow house.

5. Face Your Fears, by Shawn Sijnstra (2021)
Average member rating: (7 ratings)
David Welbourn says:

In this light-hearted game about phobias, you play as someone on edge. Uneasy. You decide that the best way to deal with this is to explore and face your fears one by one. The ending involves a really bad pun.

6. The Familiar, by Stickscoder (2020)
Average member rating: (1 rating)
David Welbourn says:

In this short one-room fantasy game, you play as a thirteen year-old. It's time for you to enter the cavern where your family has summoned their familiars for generations. Shame you didn't study how it's done, but surely you can summon something better than Uncle Steve's whatever-it-is.

7. The Fire Party Penguins Mustn't Go Out
by Coolcoder360
(2021)
Average member rating: (1 rating)

David Welbourn says:

In this short game, you are a homeowning penguin invited to the Posh Penguin Party hosted by the Fire Penguins. You have two tasks to do today. First, eat breakfast. Second, go to the local campground and help build the bonfire.

8. Morris
by Dee Cooke
(2021)
Average member rating: (7 ratings)

David Welbourn says:

In this small game, you stayed too long in this Pokey End pub, and now the village square outside is filled with Morris dancers! You're terrified of Morris dancers! How will you escape? (Two ways to win.)

9. A Once in a Lifetime Opportunity
by Interpied
(2021)
Average member rating: (5 ratings)

David Welbourn says:

In this small game, you're standing outside a 'Game Hall Emporium' in Las Vegas. A certain Mr Bell invited you here to win a lot of money, a once in a lifetime opportunity you couldn't ignore. Bell's message was light on details, but you do want to be wealthy. You just hope your phobia won't get in the way.

10. Orchid Species of the Erastian, by Ryan Veeder (2020)
David Welbourn says:

In this small experimental online game, you play as someone exploring various islands and drawing any orchids you find in your sketchbook. It's very pleasant. The game can be updated at any time to have new content, but the author is under no obligation to ever do so, so this might be all you're getting.
