One of the most popular genres of flash games available free online are BMX games. Such games are made in the Flash platform by Adobe, and sponsored by several free arcade websites all over the Internet. Following the enthusiasm of riding BMX bikes, and doing stunts and tricks, developers of flash games have appealed to this crowd by creating a number of BMX game titles that try to capture the excitement into the computer screen. An example of such attempt is the creation of BMX Boy by Flash games 247. BMX Boy is a fun and really simple BMX game for all ages. Featuring a simple graphics interface, somewhat easy use of controls and no story line, the game is basically your traditional sport game with a focus on BMX bikes. Players control the bike by using the arrow keys, and the keys one through nine to perform tricks and stunts like BMX backflips. Points are awarded for the stunts performed, and taken away when you fall. Pressing the space bar will cause the bike to change direction. The course is mined with obstacles like U-shaped ramps and barrels of some unknown green stuff. Beware not to crash next to an obstacle, since it is rather difficult to reverse direction. Even if the game instructions read that the space bar changes direction, you will find it only produces a jump. The player will need to spend some time learning what each of the nine keys do in terms of stunts and tricks. Less skilled players will find it hard enough to keep the character on the bike for the duration. The sound score is rather dull, and can get on your nerves after a while. As with most games sponsored by Flash games 247, an option is available for the players to submit their high score. This action will take the visitor to their website for registration and score keeping. Overall, BMX Boy is a fun BMX game to play online free, anytime. It does require patience and some time to develop the skills necessary to do well in this game, and more than average skill at game play. Thus, I would not recommend this game for children under ten years old. It is however, safe for the entire family, and a great past time for BMX game fans looking for a challenge. On a side note, remember to take all the necessary precautions before trying any of these stunts at home. You are best advised to always wear your safety gear, and have an experienced riding next to you whenever possible. Falling on a BMX game online does not hurt, but it can be a really painful experience in the field.
