Stunt Pilot 2Not only does this look gorgeous, it plays fantastically too. The aim’s simple: fly through the rings, with only the up and down arrows on your keyboard for company (and Space for boost). It’s tougher than it looks — but Stunt Pilot 2’s one of those games that rewards you for failure. The little men on the ground run for their lives, the scenery explodes and topples, and, pleasingly, even the rings themselves fall out of the sky if you clip them. Which you will. A lot.

Best of all, you can turn the music off. Play Stunt Pilot 2 (Flash)
