Browser Game Pick: People Stacking (Takaaki Ogiwara)
People Stacking (or Stacking People) is a physics-based puzzle game where players would have to stack people in different poses as high as they can without having the entire structure tumble over. Click on the judge button to initiate the scoring process, with all of the points you've acquired added to your total score before the screen is cleared for another attempt at building a new tower.
You are allowed a maximum of only twenty people to stack in each game. (source: 0stage-blog)

Neat idea and game, but I think it would be a lot more fun if you could rotate them and place them anywhere you want, so that you can really precisely stack them :)

Would you believe that ひと ("hito") actually doesn't mean "one" but "person" or "people"? You shouldn't trust Babelfish blindly.

@Pekuja: Thanks for the info - I tried Google Translation as well but it gave a worse translation than Babelfish actually.

Ugh, not sure if it's just my monitor, but the flickering background on the game is doing my head in.
Nice idea once I got over that though.
