  • Short and free games, any genre is fine
    Candy Box 2 -- there is more to this than meets the eye: https://candybox2.github.io/. Source: 11 months ago
  • Things that FEEL a lot cooler than they actually LOOK?
    Looking as an outsider you will see a bunch of weird-ass ASCII art that doesn't even look that good compared to, say, Candy Box, while as the actual player you're actually wrestling an eldritch beast made of deadly gas into the ground as you pulp it with a dead giant's body.

  • Game for the office?
    Not really like the games you mentioned but Candy Box 2, A Dark Room, and Kittens Game are some of the best browser-based idle games ever. Source: over 1 year ago
  • [Web][After 2010?] Incremental Game website
    Not Candy Box or Candy Box 2, was it? Dubious guess but it does keep coming up. Source: over 1 year ago
  • If Cookie Clicker ever adds more minigames, the Javascript Console minigame should just be a smaller, simplified version of Cookie Clicker.
    I appreciate anyone suggesting CC Classic, but since I'd expect a JS Console minigame to be text-based, then maybe it should be more like Candybox2 (https://candybox2.github.io/ which if I'm not mistaken was part of the inspriation for CC!). Source: over 1 year ago

  • Good video games for hands-on immersion in gamification?
    Zork (1981). This is a very influential Text Adventure Game, meaning it doesn't have any graphics at all, it's purely based on a text interface, played by typing in simple actions in plain language. This isn't the first text adventure, but it was one of the most popular, and it's also available to play online for free. https://classicreload.com/zork-i.html. Source: about 2 years ago
