  Plenty of mobile games are clones of free Flash games with added monetization.

  For example Angry Birds is just Crush the Castle.

  Noe, I’m not going to argue that these mobile games are good, but they’re shitty because of their monetization schemes. As free flash games that were short enough to not overstay their welcome they were fine.

  Add to that there being a few flash games that were genuine attempts at art. Which I think are valuable if for no other reason than to see the history of indie games.

  There were a couple of gems though.

  I remember going to the library to play specific games over and over. We tried fresh ones every day, but kept going back to games like those motorbike racing sidescrollers.

      They actually reported it to their own flash client for just their games I think to keep it alive, and are making ports of aq world in its own engine
