Free Action Games

If you want speed, reflexes and excitement, you are in the right place. In action games there is no time to stop.

What are action games?

Action games demand quick decisions and quick reactions. You fight enemies, dodge obstacles or try to defend an area. The pace is high; the situation on screen changes before you have time to think about it, and you have to adapt. Direct gameplay and instant feedback matter more than story or heavy systems.

Subgenres of action games

In fighting games you attack and defend against an opponent. In platform action you jump and climb your way through levels. In survival games you try to hold out against increasingly hard waves. In endless runners the character moves on its own and you dodge obstacles. In defense games you protect a point from enemies. Their tempo differs, but they all ask for attention and reflexes.

Succeeding in action games

Learn the controls first; once the keys or touch layout are in your fingers you can start playing the real game. Watch enemy movement patterns, because most repeat a cycle. Waiting for the right moment instead of attacking constantly saves both health and points. Collect power-ups and bonuses when you get the chance. When you lose, think about why; often the same mistake repeats and it is easy to fix.
