The Crimson Room (http://www.datacraft.co.jp/takagism/index_e.html)
Which you may have come across, as it's quite well known.

But, saving the best for last, is a wonderful little game funded by ABC.
The Chasm (http://www.abc.net.au/gameon/chasm/chasmgame.htm)

Damn you, slink.  I've spent the past 2 hours off and on in that damn crimson room, rather than working on my dissertation.  I always get hooked by games like that, but there's always one item I can never find...I keep going around in cicrles.

Still, it beats working...

Edit:  Moments later, I found the other item I was looking for.  Dammit.

I got stuck in a circle for ages, but got it in the end.
I'm still to manage The Chasm. I got to trying to climb the pipes, but the deluge keeps getting me. I haven't quite worked out whether it is about the order you hop through them or whether there's a switch somewhere for them.

Was something else to do besides real gaming.

Jebus, people. It's a good thing I didn't have anything planned for tonight...

Oh, and thank you.

It's the order you go through them.  I spent an entire afternoon on the Chasm once.  As I recall, you have to start in one of the middle pipes, then keep going up and to the left until you hit a door.

Okay, yeah, I've played and beat Chasm... a while back. But have you played WorldBuilder (http://www.lego.com/eng/create/activities/worldbuilder/default.asp?x=x)??

Just finally beat the Crimson Room - that damn battery was hard to find.  And it took me awhile to figure out how many times to click to find the safe.

fuck*ng Japanese people.

Not kidding.
It was the second ring that got me! Took me a while.
Now I just wish he'd hurry up with the other room.

As for World Builder, Choop, it's just loading (dialup and all) so I will see what it's all about in a moment. Although well, it's lego and that's always a good thing (attempts a trip to the attic to find big huge boxes of lego).

I kept starting the damn movie and getting called away from the Computer so it took 25 minutes just to see the end of it and know what to do from there.

It was frustrating and enjoyable once I got through it. It would be interesting to see the next room.

MOTAS (http://www.albartus.com/motas/) was way better.
