Jelly Coco is a fairly simple game: catch colorful jellies, then stack them up to earn coins or lives. Don’t drop them, and watch out for the rotten black jellies (those go in the dump)!

While poking around a few Japanese sites, I came across a small bento-themed game called Mogu Mogu (named after the Japanese onomatopoeia for the sound of eating fast). Just line up several of the same bento elements in a row to make them disappear.

You can find other miniature games on the Shockwise game page.

Last night, I came across this Japanese Flash game, which I would imagine was created as a promo for Nissin, the company that makes UFO noodle bowls. The game is pretty simple; you just pour water into the customers’ bowls so they can have their lunch. Sometimes you run out of water, and watch out for customers when they get angry; if one yells, you lose! If you can get up to 100 bowls served, you win.

Yes, this game is a bit mindless, but it’s so cute, from the tiny little icons of food and creatures, to the lovely sound effects. Just click the bottom yellow button to get started, and start swapping objects to get several in a row. Clear!

Choco'Miss A good friend of mine recently returned from a trip to Paris, and brought me back the sweetest notepad featuring Choco’Miss, a pink-eared bunny-like character who apparently loves chocolate.

Lo and behold, there’s a full Choco’Miss web site — all in French — with recipes, cute wallpapers and games, as well as a shop with stationery and sweet treats to buy.

J’adore le chocolat!
