Lame computer games and the people who love them

    Okay, I admit it ... I love to play games on my computer that everyone else (eg. JR and his kids) think are completely lame. I'm don't like reaction, time limit type games. I play backgammon a lot but I seem to have a complete addiction for games that involve pairing things.

    My current serious addictions:

    Ning Po Mah Jong
    Bejeweled
    Mystery Solitaire (kind of a card game version of Mah Jong)

    and, always, Freecell.

    Any suggestions on games I might enjoy along these lines? And any confessions as to the lame games you love but hesitate to admit to?

    I think you might like this one if you play the classic strategy mode.

    Nothing wrong with Freecell.

    I'm going to catch some real shit from some of the board veterans on this one, but I nominate The Crimson Room.

    Actually, it's not lame. It drove me bat-ass crazy.

    I still feel ill-will towards it. So there you have it, The Crimson Room.

    Link please.
    Some of my new favorite games have come about from people linking them on this board.
    Such as the most addicting game ever which was quickly passed through my office before all of us got in trouble from the bosses for playing it: http://novelconcepts.co.uk/FlashElementTD/

    You can look up how to solve it.

    I remember, because I had to.

    That game drove me batshit crazy.

    There was another one that was even worse. Green something. Maybe someone else can remember the name of it.

    I put in some Bejeweled time.

    But at any time, with no warning, at work or at home, I can find myself in the middle of a Javanoid game. Doesn't even matter that it's only 11 screens or so. That's pretty much all it takes to get my fix.
