Fun Miniclip Games to Play Online

Miniclip games are a gaming site based out of London, and was founded in the year of 2000. The website became quite popular with its brand ambassador Miniclip games. These games are very simple and yet catchy. On top of it these are one of the very few interesting free web games, which can catch the fantasy of most gamers and keep them glued to the controls. I am not sure how many people would care to play them had they charged money, but being for free, has definitely made this game a good way to pass time.

Miniclip games is essentially a directory of web related games. The Numbers vary anywhere close to a 100. They can be categorized into sports, action, adventure, puzzle, and shooting games. Quite a few of these games can be easily downloaded and played on your PC. These games have gained so much popularity that recently the company released a cash prize for a Miniclip Tournament. Here the members can play against each other, and there is cash prizes to be won. The details regarding this tournament are sketchy. The joining is for free, how the prize money is deposited into the winner’s account is not detailed in the site.

Some of the best known Miniclip games, which are acclaimed worldwide for their vast appeal, are Flashman (PacMan variant), Runescape, Bubble Trouble. Some others are Miniclip Tetris, and Hamsterball. Most of these games are well known worldwide, and they provide wide publicity for the banner of Miniclip games. In the ultimate analysis, Miniclip.com has many games. All or most of these games are free. Some require payment or a few advanced features, but that too is very reasonable sum of money. Also the money comes in only after you have completed certain levels of the game and want to play on the advanced levels.

But on the other hand, the quality of the graphics and special effects are way beneath the average. When compared to other websites, the Miniclip games fall short of expectation by a few notches. While most of the games are quite catchy, to begin with, but there are many which are just plain boring. Even amongst the more interesting games, many gamers find them boring after a few levels. This is mainly because the features are not upgraded with each level. You are still playing the same features on higher levels, which you were playing on at the beginner’s level.

This is a huge minus point of the site. The feature of winning cash prizes seem to be a desperate attempt to catch attention. But then also it is not done very well. Over all, I doubt the popularity of the Miniclip Games would have been anywhere close to what it is now, had it not been for free. There are many gamers who are of the opinion that paying for a download is not a bad idea, provided you are getting value for your money. Maybe it is time for Miniclip games to sit up and take notice of this fact.
