Top 10 Best Poki Games You Can Play For Free Online
Now that the obvious definition of what’s Poki is out, let’s check out the actual list of the top 10 best Poki games you can play online for free.
Subway Surfers
It is by far the obvious ranked in this top 10 series. Millions of people play Subway Surfers every day and the craze is undying. For the uninitiated, Subway Surfers is an endless runner game where you have several characters who are on a run evading a police officer and his dog. Dodge trams and trains, slide under obstacles, collect coins, get power-ups, wear special gear like a jetpack or a hoverboard, and more.
Poki lets you pay Subway Surfers online on its platform for free and with a similar responsiveness as the mobile game. Of course, the graphics may be a bit iffy but at the end of the day, it is a free online game that doesn’t require any installation to hog your storage whatsoever.
Candy Crush Saga
Well, if you have played Candy Crush Saga on your phone, this Poki game edition is exactly the same. You get the various colored candies that you need to match and crush. As a general thumb rule of literally any other game, the more you crush, the more you earn on this classic game.
Temple Run 2
If you are a casual gamer and always on the lookout for the best games to try, you must have tried Temple Run (or Temple Run 2). Similar to Subway Surfers, Temple Run 2 is an endless runner game that takes you on an adventure hurtling through the walkways and bridges of a castle but with a catch. Monsters are chasing after you which means one wrong move and you will be caught.
As you move forward, the game increases in terms of speed and difficulty level. The game tends to stimulate your brain to respond quickly without which, the game will be over soon. Collect coins as you hurtle through the castle and you can spend it on outfits in-game and more.
Angry Birds
Another game that doesn’t require any introduction. The game – Angry Birds, revolves around ‘angry birds’ who are trying to shoo away green-colored pigs before they reach their eggs. How do they do it? By slightshotting themselves towards the structure in a manner that will prevent the pigs from reaching the eggs. Sounds easy, right? Give it a try and you will find out just how difficult it gets once you start reaching advanced levels within the game.
Super Mario and Sonic
Relive your Super Mario moments on Poki. The game shares the DNA with another iconic character ‘Sonic’. As said, both the characters follow similar gameplay mechanics where you run, jump, hit, collect coins, and evade valleys till you reach the flag mast. Surprisingly, the graphics are good compared to many other Poki games. I was actually very impressed with the smooth graphics it offered as you can see in the photo above or Play it for yourself.
Pool Club
Well, if you are into Pool, you’ll have a Poki game right here. It is a single-player pool game where you are pit against time. You get 60 seconds to pocket all the balls. Surprisingly, you can buy more time by pocketing the balls in this game against time.
Jumping Shell
If you ever feel like teasing your brain, try Jumping Shell. It is a puzzle-solving game that requires your problem-solving skills. The game has shell-nesting mechanics where your character is in a protective case that you can get out of with a double jump. It helps you when you need to bypass obstacles as you can rejoin with the shell at your will.
The game has 24 levels made with mind-challenging obstacles and sometimes, you will feel stuck in-between. Don’t worry as the game offers ‘hints’ to keep you moving through the well-designed levels.
Vectario.io
If you are into Minecraft, you’ll like Vectario.io for sure. This Poki game shows similar ideas as Minecraft where you’ll see structures made up of blocks. Hit and collect items on your way. Spark your creativity to build something out of thin air just like you would in Minecraft although it is still a Poki game and thus, expect it to have fewer functionalities, a bit cheaper graphics, and glitches on the way.
Fruit Ninja
In the mood to cut down some fruits? Well, Fruit Ninja is for you. The game, a classic for sure, revolves around fruits that show up on-screen and your task is to slice them up. It is a time-limited game which means the more fruits you chop in a given time, the more points you earn. However, beware of obstacles that pop up in between that you need to steer away or else risk ending the game.
The game is all about showing the agility of a ninja and thus, the faster you respond to flying fruits on the screen, the more points you make.
O Mandala
Unless you don’t try, you won’t find out how patterns bring something to life. With O Mandala, your task is to draw and with symmetrical patterns. I tried using 8-part symmetry and the result came out as something a master craftsman can try (of course, without using a symmetry simulator). Create amazing shapes, weave patterns and strangely, feel proud of the end results with O Mandala.
Wrapping Up
And with that, we conclude our take on the top 10 best Poki games you can play online for free. There are hundreds of Poki games out there spread across various Poki websites that open the floodgates of options you can try. It also means your soul can always have a new game to try and exhaust before you can try another one from the lot.
