Chess against the computer or a friend, chess puzzles from real games, 2048 and Sudoku. Every game runs on this website, in the browser you are already using, and starts the moment you open it.
Chess, chess puzzles, 2048 and Sudoku — four classics, all played right here in your browser. Nothing to install, no account.
There is no process to learn. This is what happens when you tap a game.
Each card says what kind of game it is. Chess for a proper sit-down, puzzles or 2048 when you have five minutes.
No new tab, no other website. The game loads on this page with the same look as everything else here, and works with a mouse, a keyboard or your thumb.
When a game ends you can start a new one straight away. 2048 and Sudoku keep your current grid in your browser, so a break does not cost you the game.
Mostly about chess, about what a browser needs, and about what we keep.
A short list is only useful if someone keeps it honest. These are the tests every game here has passed.
Chess, Sudoku, 2048: games that have been played by millions and need no explanation. Nothing here is a demo or a one-off novelty.
Every game is hosted here and opens in the page you are on. If a game needed a download, a plug-in or a sign-up before the first move, it would not be on the list.
The games are built on established open-source components and a public collection of puzzle positions, and we check them ourselves. Anything that stops working properly comes off the list.
Phone, tablet or laptop, it is the same site and the same games. Tap a piece and then its square, swipe the 2048 board, tap a Sudoku cell and then a digit.
If there is a classic you would like to see on this page — or if something has stopped working — write to us. The list stays short, but it is not closed.
