Playing games on a computer or a gaming console is a really fun and immersive way to pass the time. However, most PC and console games are paid, and those that are not paid are often monetized in some way or another which will encourage you to spend money on them. Additionally, both paid and free games on computers and consoles come with a large installation size, which might not be preferable for people who are just looking for a quick past time. In this article, we will some of the best online games that you can play without any hefty downloads. The online games that are mentioned here can be played right on the browser that you are using to read this article. Without further ado, let’s start:
- Slither.io
Slither.io is an online browser game that has its roots from the old days of gaming. If you happen to own a Nokia phone from the early 2000s, we are sure that you are familiar with the snake game that ships with every Nokia phone. Slither.io is a game that is similar to that mobile game, but with a twist – this one comes with online players, and you can eat those other snakes too instead of being restricted to eating unmoving dots on the screen. Every enemy or food you eat will make your snake grow bigger and larger until you become an unstoppable gigantic snake. You are not confined to a small map either like in the older snake games. Slither.io is an enjoyable online game that you could participate in at any time whenever you want.
