For some reason the whole site (*especially* like a decade ago) has a sort of 90s vibe to it. Like one of the last vestiges of the old wild west days of the internet or something. Not sure how old it really is, but it certainly carries that vibe. That sort of aesthetic combined with the timeless games and nostalgic setting really helps to amp up the nostalgia to its max.

[@Gallrio]

One game I constantly played on CoolMath was Guardian Rock. Basically, you move this Rock Guardian around to kill all the archeologists to prevent them from exploring the temple. The thing I remember most about the game was the fantastic ost, it only had 3 songs but god damn were they amazing. Sadly, the game was made in flash so playing it nowadays is difficult.

[@mylastaccountgotdeletedtha6936]

The OSTs for some of the CoolMathGames were so much better than they had any right to be. I remember when I was younger, I didn’t like the soundtrack Sugar Sugar had because I thought it sounded depressing, but looking back, I’d probably find it calming like a lo-fi. Also, super Santa kicker had a fire OST. Only four songs, but I guess they went with quality over quantity.

[@russt2793]

Ah CoolMathGames, one of the best websites ever, it was your cure for being bored at school, that's for sure. I remember playing a ton of games on that site, whether they were new, or old. I had a blast playing it, it will always be remembered by me.

Then you'd have to slash some monsters to keep your speed up to not get caught by the rising lava. If you rose up enough you'd go through a floor and rescue a princess. It was fun.

Yes, I remember CoolMath Games. Run and Fireboy/Watergirl were pretty fun, tho I fondly remember the Papa Restaraunt series (mainly Freezeria, as I've played that one the most). Anyways, good video.

[@thenameyoushouldknowthekin8998]

Tricky Keys is an awesome CoolMathGames game. Basically, you play as a Mouse and go through an infected computer. It's a platform game, but with a twist: some levels will take away your controls, or automatically use them. For example, one level might make it so you can't go left, so you have to wall jump off walls and such. Or, during a level, the game will force you to automatically jump every once in a while, so you'll have to make sure it doesn't screw you over. I was able to reach the final level before CMG was blocked on my laptop lol. I'd highly suggest playing it because the level design is really fun and there are plenty of stages to play.

[@bloopyblooburt2800]
