About the games

How a game gets on this page

A short list is only useful if someone keeps it honest. These are the tests every game here has passed.

A proper classic

Chess, Sudoku, 2048: games that have been played by millions and need no explanation. Nothing here is a demo or a one-off novelty.

Runs on this site

Every game is hosted here and opens in the page you are on. No download, no plug-in, no sign-up before the first move.

Open foundations

Built on established open-source components and a public collection of puzzle positions, and checked by us.

Play with a friend

In chess, choose “A friend, same screen” and pass the phone or the mouse back and forth. The other three are solo games.

Nothing stored

No accounts and no sign-up. 2048 and Sudoku keep your current grid in your own browser, and nothing else is stored anywhere.

Works on a phone

Tap a piece and then its square, swipe the 2048 board, tap a Sudoku cell and then a digit.
