Leadership

Another of the games cleverly disguised to look like some sort of spreadsheet, Leadership is a lunar lander clone. But, it's a pretty clever one. The game produces graphs and charts to create the obstacles you need to avoid on your way to the other side, so a quick glance from your boss won't get you busted. Probably.

Paperclips looks innocent enough, and certainly won't catch the eye of a manager glancing at your computer screen. It's an addictive clicker game where you build a paperclip empire. You may be surprised at how hard it is to pull yourself away from the game.

CyberCode Online

A video game in disguise, CyberCode Online may look like a regular line of visual studio code, but in reality, it’s an epic real-time MMORPG that’s easy to pick up but hard to put down. It’s a creative way to get your game on while also looking like you’re working.

"You've died of dysentery." If you grew up on The Oregon Trail, you'll be familiar with this line because it's the one videogame they made you play in grade school. The browser version is just as good as you remember, and it's fun to be nostalgic about the early days of life where you didn't have responsibilities or work you should be doing.

GeoGuessr

While GeoGuessr can be a little obvious if you're trying to keep your gaming on the down low, it is pretty addicting and makes good use of information readily available on the Internet. You begin the round somewhere in the world (through Google Maps), and based on your surroundings, you must guess where you've landed.
