Without a quality gaming PC or competent console, the only other option for modern gaming is to do so in an internet browser. Thankfully, the demand for these free and easily accessible games has led many independent developers to create games that can run in browsers worldwide. This list is here to inform the community of browser games that are still worth playing, and their quality if they are.
This list will cover only the following:
Games that are easily accessible, free, and can still be played
Games that don't require an excessive amount of technical knowledge to enjoy
Games that can run on a low-end device well enough to provide a pleasant experience
Note: This list does not include mobile game versions. If you have a phone and need to play a game, go to your OS app store and download something.
Of course, this list is purely subjective, and your favorite game might not be here. Regardless of whether you see something you know here or not, I implore you to try these games at some point. It'll be worth your while. Also, kudos to my buddy Cameran for his help in finding the best games for this review. We've spent several years playing loads of these browser games, and these are - in my opinion - the best we've found (though not our favorites). Enjoy the read.
Honorable Mentions (in no particular order)
Websites such as Kongregate, Coolmath Games, Newgrounds, and many others host loads of independently developed games that can be played in your browser. If you want something unique instead of something mainstream, I recommend checking these sites out.
Showdown! (best known as Pokémon Showdown) is a Pokémon battle simulator where you can create teams and battle against other players. That's about all you can do with it, but the strategizing is remarkably deep and the gameplay is entertaining.
Grindcraft and other games developed by Playsaurus (the developers of Clicker Heroes, number 6 on the list) are all quality experiences and can provide loads of fun...if you can get them to work or find them on the internet.
Ninja.io is an entertaining, fast-paced 2D shooter featuring a wealth of weapons and - most notably - online multiplayer. However, like other online shooters, its concurrent player count is steadily diminishing.
Bonk.io is a competitive physics game. It is fun, though lacks depth and has the same player count issues as Ninja.io.
BrainChef is a dying/dead MMORPG that is very simple to play and resets once a month... when the servers are being paid for. Right now, the game's URL returns a server error, which is quite sad - I enjoyed the game.
Defly.io is a fun one. You control a helicopter on a 2D plane (pun intended) and your objective is to build a base and control as much of the map as you can. It is similar to Paper.io in that way, but the main difference is that your helicopter is weaponized.
This has been a comprehensive list of some quality browser games that anyone can easily play for free. If you're looking for something free to play to pass the time, then I strongly recommend picking something from the above list. Thank you for reading.
