Flash games ruled the childhood of the 00s. These are often free-to-play computer games on the internet that usually requires an Adobe Flash program to work. It’s mostly simple games with silly graphics that appeal to the young audience.
Although Adobe decided to end the Flash format back in 2020, these decades’ worth of classic games inspired many developers, and of course, a fun and memorable childhood life.
So, let’s take a trip down memory lane to relive our favorite games.
Boxhead
The zombie shooting game genre has a wide player base and has been around for a long time. That’s why one of the most popular Flash games developed is Boxhead. It’s a top-down shooting game with never-ending action. In this game, players have to kill hordes of zombies with various weapons. As players progress further, they will have to face tougher zombies in more complex places.
Bartender: The Right Mix
This game might have trained a generation of alcoholics. The goal of this game is to create a perfect mix that can open the gates of heaven. It’s a very simple trial and error game where the bartender gives various reactions to the players’ mix.
Fireboy and Watergirl
A game that could either train kids about teamwork or start a fight. It’s mostly the latter if not supervised. Fireboy and Watergirl is a cooperative puzzle game that a pair can play on a single computer. It can still be played alone but with thousands of flash games out there, why this one?
Stick War
The 00s was the peak of stick figures. These were the go-to genre of young developers. There were hundreds of stick games back then. There was even a YouTube series of it. One of the best of its kind is, of course, Stick War. It’s an action strategy game where players will build an army to fight invaders.
Skull Kid
The game you don’t want your parents to see you play. It’s a brutally violent game that we play in secret. The goal is to simply destroy everything with whatever weapon players pick up. The all-time favorite is the chainsaw to cut people in half.
