ONLINE GAMES

Online Games allows you to display over 83 free flash games directly on your site. Use a simple short code to throw a game anywhere you choose. Start your About page with a round of Angry Birds, or throw in a Mario game between each blog post.

There are games for people who are nostalgic, like Super Mario Brothers, and ones who are looking for something new, like Minion Rush.

MULTIPLAYER GAMES PLUGIN

When it comes to gaming, the more the merrier. Why not involve more people and embed some free multiplayer games? Bring people together with fun and more importantly, free games.

Because these games are all browser based, they are not responsive. If a lot of your traffic comes from mobile, you may want to choose a different plugin.

MYARCADEPLUGIN LITE

If arcade games are your thing, this is the plugin for you. Import over 70,000 free games from Flash games to ones for two players. The plugin works with any theme, but gives your site the option for game-based themes. You can manage the games and put them wherever you want on your site.

People will have a great time enjoying the games you provide. Just try not to get too distracted from work. 😉
