Browsers and JavaScript are becoming more powerful and more comprehensive. There was a time when any type of game needed Flash. But the stage now is set for powerful HTML5 and WebGL games!
Here are 30 of our favorite games running in all modern browsers and only using web technologies. Enjoy!

HexGL is a futuristic, fast-paced racing game built on HTML5, JavaScript and WebGL. You can control a space ship by using your keyboard, a touchscreen device or even a leap motion controller if you have one.
CrossCode
A retro-inspired 2D game set in the distant future. This one is full of great game mechanics such as combos, puzzles, skill trees, quests, items and more.
Bejeweled
The classic Bejeweled game in HTML5 form. This is an official clone and as such it runs and looks perfect. The ultimate time killer.
Gods Will Be Watching
You and your crew have to survive for 40 days in isolation in this creepy (but awesome) game. There are six members of your team including a dog, a psychiatrist and a robot and you have to interact with them the right way to keep them warm, fed and sane.
Swooop
