Card games are the past and future of gaming. Whether you play mobile puzzles or desktop shooters, the genesis of all games is traced back to our ancestors in a cave, shuffling leaves cut into crude rectangle shapes and bluffing each other out of brontosaurus meat. Enjoy this selection of our faves.

These are the word games you are looking for. Word games are what separate the Chads from the noobs. Anyone can wield a weapon in an FPS world of make-believe, but only true gamers have mastered their own mind. Words are how we build our world, and in this week's update, they are how you build your legacy.

The holidays are here! You have to admit that you love the treats, the presents, the time off and most of all the games. So, here are some of our favorite holiday-themed games! Share them with your friends, family, or Santa himself.

Imagine magic is real, and apes evolved to wield wands, craft spells, and blast each other to bits. In Apes.io, it's not fantasy. It's reality. If all your apes gone, don't pound your chest in anger; grab a vine and swing into action! Our apes are never bored, and Kong's crown is only a game away.

For the Burning Crusade release, I stayed up all night playing and ended up having to leave school 'cos I was falling asleep everywhere. Definitely used being sick a lot in school to play games. Now I just use vacation when games I'm excited for come out.

I'm a huge fan of racing games, so I had to include a few of those, and Apes.io has a lot of potential as a great drop-in arena shooter. I rounded it out with some chill puzzle/arcade games to chill out with.

I love classic AG games, so definitely had to go with Bloons Tower Defense and The Impossible Quiz. I also like strategy games like Hex.io and Yorg.io. It's always fun to play with other users, so I think that's why I'm a fan of the IO games. It really keeps things interesting, and it's nice to feel connected to other players.

A mix of some really awesome classic flash games from my own childhood as well as some new favorites. Misspelled and Heatwave Antarctica are some pretty cool, unique little platformer puzzle games that you should definitely check out.

Growing up playing Addicting Games provided me with tons of fun games that were a part of my childhood, and now it's exciting to provide those experiences to others.

I'm a big fan of easy-to-play, but difficult-to-master games. I've been playing Little Big Snake for years, I still suck, but it's fun anyway!
