With so many games, so many publishers and such a low barrier to entry for both players and developers it was easy for a new title to suffocate in the deluge of content. Sometimes you had to be original, or have a cool theme, great graphics, solid mechanics or a neat twist on an old genre favorite. In this wild west world of Flash Games, it took a lot to stand out and succeed. As long as you had flash -which was standard back in the day- you could scroll through and play for as long as you wanted. Best of all, there were no micro-transactions, no pay walls, and no downloads. There were hundreds of developers, dozens of publishers and a seemingly limitless supply of new games daily. Anybody into the casual gaming scene could tell you that you were spoiled for choice.

Flash Games still hold a special place in the hearts of many gamers who grew up or were online during the early to mid-2000s.
