Players must move a little wooden car from screen to screen, solving puzzles along the way. The game makes impressive use of Flash animation. The first half of the game is free, and the second half can be accessed online and through download for US$3 (&plusmn;R21).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Today I Die<\/strong> &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ludomancy.com\/games\/today.php\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Today I Die\">play game<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/today_i_die_482015690.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Today I Die\" title=\"Today I Die\" width=\"600\" height=\"536\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Today I Die is an interactive poem about a girl who attempts suicide (although this is probably open to interpretation &ndash; part of the beauty of the game). Through interacting with her environment and the structure of the accompanying poem, you might just be able to change her destiny. It&#8217;s short yet intriguing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Small Worlds<\/strong> &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/armorgames.com\/play\/4850\/small-worlds\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Small Worlds\">play game<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/small_worlds_332279609.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Small Worlds\" title=\"Small Worlds\" width=\"600\" height=\"510\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Small Worlds is a platformer in which players must explore a maze-like level. As the player uncovers more of the game world, the camera zooms out, and eventually reveals the entirety of the world explored, which is often a pixel art masterpiece in its own right. A relaxing coffee break game.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Haiku Hero<\/strong> &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kongregate.com\/games\/Montoli\/haiku-hero\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Haiku Hero\">play game <\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/haiku_hero_854545756.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Haiku Hero\" title=\"Haiku Hero\" width=\"600\" height=\"449\" \/><\/p>\n<p>If you feel like a cerebral workout, Haiku Hero is for you. Haiku&rsquo;s are Japanese poems that follow a particular structure &ndash; 3 lines long, the first containing five syllables, the second seven, and the third five. For bonus points players can drop in a specified word. Players can set the game to be challenging with time limits, or a relaxing creative experience. A simple concept, might take a while to perfect, go be a hero.<\/p>\n<p>Discuss<a href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/forum\/showthread.php\/8179-This-week-s-free-game-roundup-(20-24-September-2010)?p=292563#post292563\" target=\"_self\"> MyGaming&#8217;s free game roundup <\/a>on the forums.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 100%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-7669 gallery-columns-0 gallery-size-thumbnail'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/features\/7669-mygaming-s-free-game-roundup-20-24-september-2010\/attachment\/haiku_hero_854545756-jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/haiku_hero_854545756-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/features\/7669-mygaming-s-free-game-roundup-20-24-september-2010\/attachment\/small_worlds_332279609-jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/small_worlds_332279609-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/features\/7669-mygaming-s-free-game-roundup-20-24-september-2010\/attachment\/today_i_die_482015690-jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/today_i_die_482015690-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/features\/7669-mygaming-s-free-game-roundup-20-24-september-2010\/attachment\/windosill_106799534-jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/Windosill_106799534-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MyGaming&#039;s weekly collection of cool free gaming distractions<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":157,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_sma_x_autopost_status":"idle","_sma_x_autopost_error":"","_sma_x_post_id":"","_sma_facebook_post_id":"","_sma_instagram_post_id":"","_sma_x_attempts":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[20],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7669","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-features"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7669","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/157"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7669"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7669\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7669"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7669"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7669"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
