Top 10 Best Newgrounds Games

Newgrounds is a site created in 1995 by Tom Fulp, it is no secret that some of these games are legitimately great. Here I count down the top 10 best Newgrounds games
The Top Ten
Super Smash Flash

Super Smash Flash was created in 2006 by Cleod-9 on Newgrounds. At the time, Cleod-9 was fairly new to Flash development, 10 years after its initial release in 1996.

Super Smash Flash is a parody of Super Smash Bros. Melee (SSBM). It includes unlockable characters and provides a significant challenge. The game also features other modes like Cruel Melee and 100-Man Melee. Since then, a sequel called Super Smash Flash 2 has been released.

Murder (Flash Game)

Murder is another Flash game on this list. The main objective is to kill the king and stay alive while catching culprits trying to murder you.

Toss the Turtle

Toss the Turtle is a 2009 Flash game created by Foreverkul and Gonzozzm of Newgrounds.

The game revolves around shooting a cannon to launch the turtle as far as possible. A sequel, Super Toss the Turtle, was released for mobile devices in December 2016.

Road of the Dead

Road of the Dead is a 2010 Flash game released by Evil-Dog and his partners.

The story is about a zombie outbreak in a city. A skilled mechanic has to drive through a zombie-infested highway to escape the city. The player can upgrade the car to withstand more damage and reach max speed faster. Along the way, the player must dodge the military, which is trying to shoot down the car as it breaks out of the quarantine zone.

A sequel called Road of the Dead 2 was released in 2013 by the same team.

Road of the Dead 2

Road of the Dead 2 is the sequel to Road of the Dead.

The game is much more improved compared to the first one and takes place during the events of the original. This time, it introduces player-made levels and two characters in the Humvee. Players can upgrade the car and shoot zombies, while also having the ability to switch between the male and female drivers.

Henry Stickmin Series

Author Note: This includes all five games created by PuffballsUnited.

The Henry Stickmin series is about a stick figure named Henry Stickmin, whose main goal is to cause trouble.

Breaking the Bank was the first game to involve Henry. In BTB, Henry has to break into a bank in a very secluded area. Escaping the Prison follows the events after BTB, where Henry must break out of prison after a failed attempt at robbing the bank. This Flash game was released in 2010 by the same creator, PuffballsUnited. It was the first in the series to introduce medals, a Newgrounds mechanic similar to achievements.

Stealing the Diamond follows up after Henry escapes from prison. This time, Henry must steal a rare diamond from a museum in Tunisia. The game allows the player to enter in two ways: by breaking in with a motorized scooter or using a pickaxe. It also had more medals than the second game. This 2011 game, like the first two, was front-paged on Newgrounds' homepage.

Infiltrating the Airship is a 2012 Flash game that follows the third game in the series. Henry is captured by government agents and tasked with stopping the Toppat Clan, a notorious gang charged with several crimes but never arrested. Henry must stop the gang on a massive airship. Like the first three games, this one was front-paged and also took first place on the daily feature.

Fleeing the Complex came after the fourth game. Henry is taken to a massive prison complex called The Wall, which houses thousands of prisoners. The Wall is known as the "biggest prison." This was the fifth game in the Henry Stickmin series and received the same recognition as the previous games.

This was a lot of typing! OK, let's move on to the next one.

Newgrounds Rumble

Newgrounds Rumble is a 2007 fighting game created by professional Flash developers.

The game features iconic Newgrounds characters, such as the Tankman and Samurai, as well as David Firth's animation character Salad Fingers. It won first place in the Daily Feature and was front-paged.

Dad N Me

Dad N Me is a 2001 beat-'em-up game released by developers who joined Newgrounds between 1999 and 2000.

The game revolves around a psychopathic father and son duo who go around murdering children. It requires skill and mastery of key combos. The game gained significant attention and became the best game on Newgrounds in 2001.

Alien Hominid

Author Note: Alien Hominid was released on PS2 and GameCube, as well as Xbox Live as an Xbox Live Arcade exclusive.

Alien Hominid is a 2002 run-and-gun Flash game released by an indie game studio called The Behemoth. The story revolves around an alien who, after crashing his UFO, is hunted by FBI agents. The game was eventually released on other platforms outside of Flash.

Tuper Tario Tros

To end off this list, I have a very awesome game that mixes two franchises into one.

Tuper Tario Tros is a 2009 crossover between Tetris and Super Mario Bros. (1985). In this game, you use Tetris blocks to build terrain to progress to the end. It was created by a French developer called Swing Swing Submarine.

According to the developer's notes, his friend was playing Tetris on the Xbox 360, and they thought, Why not mix two great games into one? They swapped the Ss with Ts and got a fun name: Tuper Tario Tros.
