I was looking at artificial intelligence when I saw programming games. They look very entertaining. Does anyone play these? Please recommend any ones that seem interesting.

Tower defense games are programming games in that sense.  This one is good too: Stick Ranger (http://dan-ball.jp/en/javagame/ranger/)
