ANOTHER NEW ONLINE GAME, GUYS!
Thanks to my husband, I’ve got yet another fun game to add to my repertoire of time-wasting, soul-sucking free games… just don’t ask me to pronounce it! Coign of Vantage is an addictive online Flash game. Per their description: “Put your spatial perception into perspective with this 3-D puzzle game. Assemble as many images from an abstract cloud as you can before time runs out.”
I’m really enjoying this online game, especially since there’s no element of luck [as Boomshine had]. Also, my husband has seen fit to tell me more than a few times that I lack spatial intelligence, so it’s easy to rationalize this game as a mental exercise. [And I'm particularly thrilled when I score higher on my games than he does!]
Check out Coign of Vantage and let me know how you do. I don’t think I’ve ever gotten past 195k… I always get hung up on that palm tree one!
PS – Check out bobblebrook.com for more free online games - they are all Flash-based and pretty 
EDIT:
So I wasn’t kidding about my new addiction to boomshine… I have to play a game or two every day.
This morning, I made a personal high score of 320! I submitted it proudly, only to find that I ranked at #4 on the Daily List. And actually, as I was typing up the previous sentence, I saw that my score had just fallen to #5. And it’s not even noon yet! There are some REALLY good people out there I guess…
Has anyone done better than 320? Feel free to post your scores in the comments and brag about them!

So many ways to kill time at work, but today’s was an easy choice… boomshine is my poison this lovely Friday morning.
I must have replayed that twelfth level 20+ times before passing. Mindless games rock.
