Zylom.com has lots. You can play them online, no need to download.

You don't need to register or sign in despite the website encouraging you
do so. Just go to the site and play.

Perhaps a bit of a "specialty" item, but do you consider cryptograms to fit
within the definition of a game?

I just played the "split words" game a bunch of times. My results
depended much more on how well I know the subject than on how fast I
am or how good my memory is.

I was trying to find two "timewasters" which I lost when I got my 'puter
fixed. One was a cat trying to exit a maze type map and the other was
similar. I forgot to have those things transfered to the new machine.
I'll try the split word game Thanks a million. MLB

Thanks!! I found one I was looking for: Chat Noir. Now I can have fun
looking for others. They are simple but fun and don't cause "brain
strain". Best wishes. MLB

Oh, I know the cat in the maze game you're talking about. It's he

http://www.gamedesign.jp/flash/chatnoir/chatnoir.html

I'm not sure which other one you mean, but there's also a cute cat game
called "Herding Cats" or something like that. There are 5 cats walking across
the screen. Occasionally one will stop and sit down. You have to get all
the cats to sit down at the same time, or to keep walking at the same time.
I don't have the link to that game here, but I do at home so remind me and
I'll post it tonight.
