I haven't had time to check most of these out, so I don't guarantee any of them is any good, but they seemed to possibly be good ones. I'm going to add more later if I can find!

Many games here! In Finnish, but you can still try to search and I bet most of you have vague feeling what to search from where!

DoomRL sounds funny idea and I tried it briefly. Works nice and I'm certainly going to try it more.

Over and out.

Edit: Added Beefy's request of genres, which was good idea.
Btw, I still can't english too well.
Removed games already existing here and added these:
Spice Trade: http://www.spicetrade.org/ - Strategy
Games by Mikko oksalahti: http://www.pakoon.com/
Again no quality guaranteed, just came up with these. But I'll guess now there's enough for a moment, so I'll focus trying them out.

Good job. A couple of those have been mentioned but not added to the list yet (IVaN's been mentioned, as have Noctis and DoomRL). It might be nice to add a description of what each one is (or a genre at least). Oh, and reconnaissance is spelt a bit differently :

Your English is pretty good and a lot better than my Finnish!

Come on guys... But thanks. In the name of honesty I have to admit I have translator 95% of the time open just to get things right.

Whoah!

Nice working there, Tex!
Hakka pelitää!


(Yes, the above is probably nothing, but it sounds Finnish, and that's the important bit...)

Scratch Furcadia from it. An online game that disconnects everybody all the time, that doesn't fix bugs, but tells people how to work around it (and trust me... there're more bugs than working things) and that, all in all, is just a glorified chatbox, isn't really good to put on the site. Used to "play" (which means sit there, wasting time, like you'd sit on Msn all day, pretending to be a doggy) it, and honestly... Msn, Aim, Yahoo and ICQ're the same, but are less pains in the *** to keep running. I'd say scratch that one. The others do look good, though

Tom, actually not far from actual words. "Hakkapeliitta"s were finnish soldiers under swedish army, "hakkaa" translates as beats or hits and "pelittää" is slang word for something that works.

Furcadia scratched.

I'll keep searching after addiction to DoomRL wears off...

Okay, I've added them all to the list, minus Furcadia and Ivan (which was already on there). The list is growing longer and longer, guys, so feel free to sign up to do more reviews.

Fixed a bit and added two links to first post.

Can someone give more information about Vantage Master Online? It seems fairly intresting, but....strategy and rp game for an online game? Sounds iffy, and I can see it either being really bad, or really good. Anyone played it before?

[Juni Ori]

Found some great games, edited to my first post (latest in red)!

Aladdin is freeware? Somehow I doubt that...

[Juni Ori]

Ahem, I meant there are some great games, but not all of them are freeware... Sry, my bad.

I know, but what I meant was that the site claims Aladdin is freeware: http://www.jonneweb....e/1312/aladdin/ And as far as I can tell, the blurb only gives a brief description of the game but doesn't say it's a remake or something like that...

I played it a while back, it's fun. You can play the story mode solo to familiarize yourself with the game, and then play against someone else to see if you can win.

I recommend playing against someone that has a sense of humour, but that's just because I feel that, while waiting for the other player's move, babbling is a lot of fun.

I remember when I had an archer on low ground and the other player raised the water level, the rest of the map, I spent my waiting time looking at his health slowly going down and composing on the spot a song I called "Da archer in da sea"
