Computer games have become massively popular and are a past time of millions of people around the world. Today, you can even play these games online. If you are wondering which games you can start with, don't worry because we have you covered in this article. Continue reading the post to learn about the different categories of online games as well as the coolest online games in those genres.


Puzzle Games


If you are the kind that loves solving difficult games, then you will find puzzle games very appealing to you. There are many different levels for both beginners and experts. These games normally have simple actions and colored shapes. They are mainly brain games and don’t involve a lot of action. Some of the best puzzle games are:


Auditorium


Auditorium is arguably among the best games I’ve had the pleasure to play. This game challenges you to manipulate flow of light so as to illuminate an array of sensors. There are tools that help you bend as well as split light beams.
Although it sounds dull, its inspired music, spellbinding graphics and complex puzzles will leave you wanting more. In most cases, you have to pay to play this game. I can assure you it’s worth every dime.

3D Logic


While there have been many versions of the Rubik’s Cube, not many have been better than the original one. However, 3D Logic, authored by Alex Matveev, may have just done that. This fantastic puzzle game is very much like Rubik’s Cube on steroids.
As you start at every level, the cubes’ faces only have a handful of squares that are filled in. There could be for instance, two pink squares, two white ones and two orange squares. There could also be several other black squares. Your goal is to join together squares with the same color by filling in the empty squares. Initially, the game sounds complicated but with more practice, you will understand how it works.


At the start, the puzzles are quite easy but the difficulty soon increases. It offers good challenge even for hardcore puzzlers. I highly recommend you to try this game.



Loops of Zen


Until the other day, I had an addiction to the Loops of Zen game. I don’t just mean that I liked playing the game. My addiction was in the sense that I played the game every time I had an opportunity to. If you are not careful, this game can hook you. 

The game consists of a serene series of puzzles where you are required to manipulate shapes so as to ensure that no jagged ends exist. I will warn you again: this game is highly addictive.

Other top puzzle games worthy of mentioning are:

• Doodle God
• LightBot
• Sheepish
• Picross quest, and 
• Sugar Sugar



First Person Shooters (FPS) 


In FPS games, you are the protagonist, and you view the games through your eyes.
These games are very easy to get into. The only drawback is that you can’t see how you look in the game. The reason is because you see things through your eyes. Some of the most popular first person shooting games are described briefly below.


Strike Team


This is a clever mix of tactical strategy and first person shooter. During the battle, you can zoom out and even coordinate full squads through dangerous missions. It contains an over-arching single-player mode chock full with political intrigues, and while there is no live multiplayer, you can climb up leader boards among your friends.


You earn gears and perks as you progress through the levels, something that lets you tweak your team so that it can play to your style.

If you want something that offers a little more than the traditional run and gun, you will find Call of Duty very refreshing.


Dead Trigger 2


The Dead Trigger 2 continues to be the archetypal zombie-shooting game and can be played even on mobile phones, and it has great graphics too. The version of this game is somewhat different in the sense that players now have a crew that can build things for them as well as hideout. Also, the controls of the game have been streamlined for touch. Thus, all you are required to do is to move crosshairs over the zombie. If you are in range, you begin to shoot automatically. The game contains lots of progressions and missions to be enjoyed. 

Major Mayhem


In this game, you just need to tap on secret agents, ninjas or just about anybody the president commands you to annihilate, and then continue with your mission. The game has some sort of a storyline about a girlfriend but all you need to do is to tap on your targets as they pop out from behind the cover.

The game might sound simplistic but the fantastic cartoon feel, wide array of unlockables and over-the-top storyline are sure to give you fantastic gaming experience.


Modern Combat 4


Most gaming fanatics have tipped Modern Combat 4 to go on and become the best FPS game. The game is a clone of Battlefield and Call of Duty games commonly found on consoles and PCs, and it just manages to bring the best of these qualities.
It has stellar graphics, lots of achievements and unlockable items and deep online multiplayer. Also, it contains a single-player campaign. It also has terrific support for Bluetooth hardware controllers. 


COMBAT GAMES


Combat games allow you to fight one-on-one with your opponents. Not only do you need excellent reflexes but also the ability to use controls for all manner of moves. Some of the best combat games are:



Gang Beasts


Gang of Beasts is definitely one game to look out for. It has made great improvements from the early archetype in Steam Early Access. The game features combat system mimicking the clumsiness of real world scuffle and jelly baby fighters, things that have made it an excellent couch player game. Grab a foe by the scruff of the neck using one hand while at the same time punching the other repeatedly. The game is clumsy, funny, violent and desperate all at once.

Arkham City

Arkham City lets you attack Batman from just about any angle but be sure that he will counter perfectly. There is no clipping or juddering into positions. Not only is the game seamless but it’s also only among the few combat systems that adds a touch of finesse to a fight that involves scores of enemies.


The game is based off building momentum across several acrobatic strikes. The momentum built can be spent on triggering special attacks that remove threats tactically from the environment. The game requires you to adopt a forensic mind of the dark knight. You need to scan the room, discover the threats and dismantle them. Catch that thrown chair and smash it on someone’s head. The game is full of lots of actions.


Toribash


This is a strange turn-based combat game that involves mannequins kicking limbs off each other. You need to tweak your fighter’s muscles to improvise kicks, throws and punches. After planning the bout meticulously, you sit back and watch it in real-time.


The simplistic visuals provide incredible capacity for violence. Kick off the head of a fighter and see it fly through the air with blobs of blood. Should your hand get into contact with the body part of the enemy, you can grasp, which allow you to tear the enemy to pieces. The game has an element comedy of the Sumotori Dreams, but you will be richly rewarded if you have extra layer of skill.



Coolest online stealth shooter games 

 

The Evil Within [Official Site] (2001)

 

Horror and stealth go hand-in hand, especially when you take guns out of the picture completely and the whole game play out as elaborate takes on-hide-and-seek. This game may appear an unusual pick, then to consider is leaning towards action end of survival horror spectrum. 

 

Behind all the gunplay and the gore, there is a magnificent stealth game though, with traps to negotiate as well as entice adversaries toward, silent instant kills and shadow in which to cower.

The release of two-part DLC story featuring the original game’s supporting characters showed just how significant stealth mechanics had all along been. Those 2 chapters are the most horrific and tense sequence in the whole game. They are completely based on key stealth ingredients: light and sound.

Coolest massive multi player online games 

 

Entropia Universe

 

 

Breathtaking scenery, great 3D creyengine 2 graphics, a lot of untapped potential, several great people from all demographics and from around the globe. This game is constant expansion.M+300. 

 

 

This is an actual cash economy. What more would you request for to keep weenies out! After more than two years playing hard, the EU is still able to rock the competition. Other games appear pointless when you are allowed by RCE to gain actual life value for your gaming.M+280.This game is great for those seeking pleasant graphics and excitement. 

 

Dream Of Mirror Online


 

This game is based on player interaction, relationships and general community play. This is the best online game for anyone who wishes to play with lovers, buddies or make new friends. 

 

The company and publisher are interactive with players. GMs are very active. They do not stay hidden from players and does background task. All reports and problems are attended to promptly and glitches and bugs are addressed in the right manner.

 

The community too is literate and mature. There are a handful bad people here and there; however they are eventually reported by Game Sages or “game masters” without powers except being able to talk to a Game Master directly. Game sages are legitimate. They are like any real player, but with more trust with their employees and with Aerial. The graphics are pretty and the best for fans of anime, with glow and cel-shading effects.


The DOMO


 

 

The DOMO is by far considered the best MMORPG because it has lots of fun stuff apart from leveling. The players are active, nice; they are great and simply plain awesome. This is the only MMO I’ve been able to stick to. I’ve been playing it for more than two years, and I am still leveling all the time. Job system is simply awesome. A player can be any job he/she wants. You are allowed to change jobs any time you wish. Plus, you may have substitutes from 2 other jobs on one you are currently on. For instance, you may be on nurse and have musician or wizard subs. The system has unending options. With this game, you will never be short of things to do.

 

The game masters and moderators, company and its employees actually interact with players. They do not hide and do background work. Issues such as glitches, hackers and bugs are promptly addressed. Problems are also solved quickly.

Unlike many other online games that constantly grind, gameplay is relaxing. Lots of quests await you as you log into this game. Its relationship and community-based, so find your family, lovers and friends, and get them into Mirror World. 


Guild Wars


 

 

Although the game is only six years old, it’s no doubt the best online game, more so for serious players. This game deserves a number one spot. It is balanced and well thought out. Unlike most games, you’ll never see things being sold out by GW for real cash would give advantage to one player over another.

 

 

First, I look for the storyline in Cool online games. The storyline must be immersing and interesting, to make me want more. Certainly Guild Wars providers just that. A rich main story to follow, very interesting and often tricky missions bonuses to complete and several optional side quests. This game has a good clear direction to follow that makes it easy to get started.

 

All of your characters can explore the magnificently detailed vast world of three campaigns (each connected yet totally different) and also an expansion pack. So there is so much to do when you get them all.
