Avoider! Extremely Clever and Whimsical Flash Game
« on: July 25, 2006, 06:22 PM »
Ok, this has to be my favorite web flash "game" in the last couple of weeks.  I think the term "meta" might be appropriate.  It's really clever and whimsical.  I won't spoil it for you, but give it a try and see what you think.

And if you're like me and get annoyed by flash games where when you move the cursor outside the movie window it gets stuck and interferes with the game, here's a game that makes good use of that phenomena.

Really nicely done  :up:

What's your high score?

Avoider is my favorite game too. If you want more, there are more games like it as Avoider deluxe or Mouse Avoider 2. These games are as hard as the original Avoider but I miss the little ugly character trying to get the pointer. I hope you enjoy it! :Thmbsup:
