There are a million things to do on the internet. You can make wise use of your time on the internet and spend it doing research, reading news, sending important e-mails, etc., or you can use it to avoid productivity. If that’s your aim, addictinggames.com is the place for you. Sometimes you’re so bored that even wasting your time can become dull. Facebook and MySpace can only hold you for so long. But with a practically endless list of games, Addicting Games might not ever get boring. What’s great is that there’s a game for every mood you’re in. If you feel like shooting something, you might want to play “13 Days in Hell.” This is everything you want in an online shooting game: a nice selection of guns and a whole lot of violence. Your mission is to survive 13 days in hell, each day being one level. Just aim, click, and kill. Each level gets increasingly harder, but of course you’re provided with some nice new guns to account for the larger numbers of enemies coming at you. This game is fun for a while, but it’s ridiculously repetitive. Each level looks exactly the same, and there are only four different types of enemies. It’s not too challenging either. The enemies don’t shoot back; you only get hurt if they manage to walk up and bite you before you kill them, and it takes a while for your health meter to go down. “13 Days” is entertaining for a while, but you’ll probably end up quitting and moving on to something else by the sixth or seventh level. If you’re not in a violent mood, you might want to try your hand at one of the many puzzles Addicting Games has to offer. If you’re looking to cure some extreme boredom, “Armor Picross 2” is the game you want. Picross is short for picture crossword. Your goal is to figure out which boxes to fill in, and when you’ve filled in all the correct boxes, the boxes form a picture. You start out with a blank grid, and your only hints are a set of numbers on top and to the left side of the grid. The numbers on the side tell you how many boxes there are in the accompanying horizontal rows, and the numbers on top give you hints for each vertical row. The great thing about this game is that there are a number of different difficulties, ranging from “beginner” to “extreme,” and that makes it simple to learn. As you progress through the puzzles, your skills grow accordingly. And more importantly, it’s challenging, but not impossible. Unfortunately, you only get five incorrect clicks or the game’s over. It’s a little frustrating when you’ve spent ten minutes on a puzzle, only to make your last mistake and have to start all over again. But practice makes perfect. The flaw of the game is the terrible elevator music that runs through the entire thing. You’ll probably want to mute your computer.
