Looking for an easy time waster? Try Dead Pixel from Rzook over at Newgrounds. It is a point and click puzzle game that anyone can play with ease. I recommend wiping off your monitor before you start. No reason.

In Dead Pixel, all you need to do is click the tiny square that's slighly off-color from the other tiny squares.

The object of Dead Pixel is to pick out the discolored pixel on the computer screen in the game. Click right and you earn points. Click wrong and you lose life. It’s all fun and games until you realize that the faster you click, the more points you earn. Then the pixels start getting smaller, the color differences more slight, and your ability to discern which dot of green on a screen filled with green is the wrong shade of green diminishes.

It’s a surprisingly fun online game that you could pick up as a quick distraction during the day. That’s why you should Play It. Not every game needs to be a marathon and a marathon of Dead Pixel might have a negative impact on your eye and mental health.
