What are High Scores games?
High Score games are games where you can see how you rank against other players. These games let you submit your scores to see if you're the best or if you still have some work to do. What are you waiting for? Submit your score and show us your skills!
Before multiplayer became commonplace in gaming, people found another way to get competitive with one another: high scores. This was once limited to individual arcades or groups of friends, but thanks to the internet, we can now compare our scores with those of other players online. And here at Addicting Games, there are plenty of options available if you enjoy chasing that top spot on the leaderboard. We'll start with an absolute classic in Bubble Spinner. Despite its modern sensibilities, this one feels like an old-school score chaser. It sees you firing coloured balls to get matches, popping all bubbles of the same colour and netting you a bunch of points. The more you get, the more points—simplicity at its finest. However, you'll need to become an expert and aim for the top if you want to take that number one position. Remember how arcade cabinets would occasionally get reset, and all the high scores would vanish as a result? Smartle has that sort of vibe. It's a daily word puzzler where you have to rearrange five rows of letters into five different words. The faster you do it, the more points you'll get for your efforts. So, if reactions and timing aren't your thing, but you're practically a walking dictionary, this might be where you truly shine. However, if you do back reactions and general rhythmic abilities, then you'll want to check out Skip And Ascend. All you have to do is press the left arrow key to skip on your left foot and the right arrow key for your right. The only catch is that you can only press them when the screen goes yellow. Do so at the wrong time, and you'll have to start all over again. Keep it up, though, and you'll rocket up the leaderboards, ready to gloat to everyone below about your skipping prowess.
