This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

As if flash games weren't 75% dressup games, tower defense, and shit platformers. We still got plenty of that slop don't worry, we just have other kinds of slop to go with it.
I remember a horrible tower defence with dinos and ugly towers, maps and really strange upgrade designs. Rated one star on some old flash games website.
However absolute masterpieces like fancy pants man are forever good.
The game you are talking about is Age of War and is arguably one of the most well known and beloved flash games ever. It might just not have clicked with you but I have very fond memories of it and find it to be more enjoyable than most recent releases as you could just launch a game, play a bit and be done with it, no toxic mechanics, no forced wait, no super extensive (and kinda boring) content.
one of my favourite series out there is the submachine series (mysterious point and click thing), the rest of pastel games (Aurora was good but as of now it's abandoned). i will add GARE sapphire mechs, really good game, raft wars and city siege. nitrome, some obscure game on municipio like fragger or ufo joe. pepsi pinball, chasm (a point and click gane), i'll see what else i can find.
oh, sure, a kitty dream (nitrome jam game, by rayumi). bubble trouble,the flash player version of bubble bubble.
oh there's more, bloxorz, morningstar (point and click, by red herring, also very cool), mishroom madness
