| Some people like to think of the new year bringing hope and promise. It’s a chance to start fresh and make some real changes in lifestyle, financial matters or relationships – time to call up that family member to tell them, "Hey, forget about that $100 you owe me." Yep, this year’s going to be different.
But not for me. Nope. I intend to spend the first week of the new year holed up in my home doing liver cleanses and fooling around on the computer. I hope to spend some quality time in my cozy green bathrobe with only the games at orisinal.com to keep me company.
The creator, Ferry Halim, offers up almost 50 games with soothing music and charming critters that are closer to Zen meditation than blowing people’s heads off. For example, in Bum Bum Koala your task is to bump encroaching snails off your bamboo tree. In Penguin Panic you must save the stressed penguins who are terrified of the growing hole in the ozone layer. And there’s always the crazed pasture race to Milk the Cow.
In addition to providing hours of mouse-rollicking gameplay, you can click on Halim’s past projects and experiments, or send a friend a flower card that you can personally pick and design. Be sure to sign the guestbook or shop at the online store to support an excellent free games site. |
