This weekend my roommates and I began a battle to see who could make further in endurance mode on this game. Current best is level 52.

This is sure to waste some of your time this morning. It asks 52 questions about yourself and your knowledge of zombies. It then gives you scores about how well you would survive a zombie outbreak. Question #42 is funny for those who know me well. Here are my scores, post yours in the comments.
Physical Score – B
Mental Score – A
Experience Score – A
Emotional Score – F
Total Score – Z+
This is like Tetris with gravity and physics. My highest score is 479ish. The site is cool in general because it has Xbox Live style achievements for all of the flash games. The very difficult achievement for 99 Bricks is to get a tower over 600. Can anyone do it?
This game is a lot more difficult than it makes you originally think. Of course it didn’t help that I played with a trackpad instead of a proper mouse.
Keeping with the zombie theme two posts in a row, this is a really fun zombie survival game. You have 40 days to make it across the state to the city where a helicopter will pick you and the survivors up. You alternate between fighting waves of zombies and searching buildings near your location for supplies, weapons and more survivors.
This site has an article listing 365 free games, one for every day of the year. Hopefully this will keep people busy until I get back on Wednesday.
Monday Morning Distraction is a weekly feature designed to highlight something that will help waste your time and get you through those crappy Mondays. (If anyone in my office is reading this, I post this on Sunday night and set it to update on Monday morning. I would never do anything besides work in the office.)
I will admit, Applegate discovered this and put it on his blog. A week later, even though I beat it, I still can’t stop playing it. Pandemic 2 is an incredibly addicting game. It centers around trying to wipe out the planet with a disease. Unfortunately you don’t necessarily have to win to get the best score. Your score is based on how quickly you kill a large amount of people. I have gotten more points by going for speed instead of numbers.
