War Fairy

War Fairy was one of those games you'd find buried in the Flash portals of the early 2000s. It belonged to that era of simple, direct browser games where you clicked to play without much fuss. The visuals were clean, with a character design that drew from classical mythology for its inspiration.

You control a winged warrior, moving her with the mouse to defend a central temple. Waves of enemy soldiers and creatures march from the edges of the screen, and your task is to eliminate them before they reach your base. You click on targets to fire magical projectiles, often managing several attackers at once as the paths converge. The pace is steady, building from manageable groups to denser swarms that require constant attention. It feels like a focused test of your reflexes and prioritization in a confined space.
