Which free arcade game should you play?

Pick by pace. Breakout Boom and Pinball Galaxy reward patience and angles, while Slope Rush, Color Switch and Sky Hop test pure reflexes. Neon Commando: Run and Gun is the shooter pick, with eight-way aiming and weapon drops, Retro Mario Revival is the platformer pick, with stomps, power-ups and an echo decoy, Highway Rider is the riding pick, weaving a motorbike through motorway traffic, Bus Traffic Fever is the driving pick, steering a city bus past stops, signals and crossings, and Super Over Cricket Cards is the sports pick, with timing-based batting and tactic cards. Skyfire: Air Command takes flight through endless waves across three rotating zones, with a boss every five waves. Crystal Rush sends steel balls through a glowing glass atrium. Cinder Cannon turns bouncing rocks into a three-minute cannon survival run. Fruit Slice and Whack-a-Mole are easy to pick up for a quick break. Zoo Tower Duel is the balancing pick, a physics stacking game against the computer or a friend, and Rock Paper Scissors is the duel pick, a five-opponent gauntlet against a computer that learns how you throw. Your best score is saved on this device, so every run has a number to beat.
