Online Cartoon Games for Kids

The big favourites among online games for children are small flash games you can play immediately in your internet browser without having to download any software. What makes these games so popular among kids is not just that they are free and easy to access, the controls and objective of the games are very self-explanatory while the puzzles the games present are challenging enough to be engaging. As the games industry advances, free online games are also becoming more complex, more extensive, and feature more stunning graphics, but the most popular online games often remain those that feature characters that are already familiar to the player, from cartoons series on the telly or from animated films for instance.

Cartoon Games

Children and teenagers are incredibly fast and flexible when it comes to discerning the objectives and figuring out the controls of computer games, and many online games are designed so that the player can get started immediately, without having to read a long set of instructions first. "Most people want to play directly when they open an online game in their browser" says Rob Kuipers of Games.co.za, the largest South African online games portal. "Game producers know this, they keep the controls easy to figure out and often integrate them into the first levels of game so that you learn them while you play. Of course, when you already know the characters and what they are about, understanding how to play the game becomes even easier." When you play an online cartoon game featuring the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, for example, you already know what the bad guys look like, and you know what to do when you come across one of Shredder's henchmen or when you encounter a slice of pizza.

Favourite Characters

When you're a fan of a cartoon series and you can't get enough of watching them on TV, then there is nothing more fun than playing your favourite characters in a computer game. This way you get to move around as your favourite hero and help them during one of their adventures. Stop the Joker's fiendish plans in Gotham City with Batman, keep Metropolis safe with Spiderman, fight a duel with your favourite Dragon Ball Z characters or play one of the many other cartoon games and puzzles available at Games.co.za. Make your way back home with Nemo, Marlin and Dora, escape from the Kraken with Captain Jack Sparrow, help WALL-E find EVE, or look for any of your other favourite Disney characters among the many Disney games on offer.
