All Games

• Minesweeper — Race the same minefield: plant your flag on a mine and the turn stays yours. 2 players, five tall fields, everyone for themselves.
• Naval Battle — Command your fleet, sweep the enemy fog, fire by ship class and sink their navy!
• Warfront — Tactical war strategy! Train soldiers, fly your dragon, conquer villages and seize the enemy headquarters!
• Gold Miner — The classic gold miner game! You steer the claw and choose the moment to drop it — grab gold, diamonds, a sealed chest and even a moving mole, and out-earn your rival. A competitive 2-player version.
• Color Match — A 2–6 player color-and-number matching card game — a free, browser-based take on the color-and-number card game. Match color or number to be the first to empty your hand of 7 cards, and surprise your rivals with action and wild cards.
• Estates — A mini trading game! With 2–6 players, roll the dice, grab 18 cities on a 28-tile world tour, build houses/hotels, trade, and become the richest. Default goal is BANKRUPTCY: bankrupt your rivals and be the last one standing (a net-worth target can be picked in the room instead).
• Iron Rails — A connect-the-cities railway game (a route-claiming railway game): collect coloured train-car cards, spend matching sets to claim routes between towns, and secretly race to complete your destination tickets before the trains run out. 2–4 players + bots, free in your browser.
• Claimridge — A settle-the-frontier board game and a free, browser-based take on the settlement and resource-trading game: roll two dice, harvest timber, brick, grain, wool and ore from the terrain, build trails, camps and towns, trade at the bank and Trading Posts, and race to the target victory points. 2–6 players + bots, no download.
• Royal Whispers — A court-intrigue deduction card game and a free, browser-based take on the deduction card game: hold one secret figure, draw a second on your turn and play one to scheme — accuse rivals with the Courier, peek with the Informant, duel with the Duelist, shield with the Sentinel, force a discard with the Inquisitor. Outlast the round to earn the crown's Favour; first to the Favour target wins. 2–4 players + bots, no download.
• Thornwood — Thornwood is an easy-to-learn area control game you can play free in the browser. You get three actions a turn: muster warriors, march, raid a neighbouring clearing, or plant a Root. Every clearing carries a bounty number, and at the end of each season there is a harvest: whatever you hold right then pays you. After four seasons the highest score wins. 2–4 players, three maps, with bots or with friends.
• Crownfall — Crownfall is a free, browser-played conquest game on a real-world map. Every turn is three steps: REINFORCE (earn armies from your territory count and the continents you hold), ATTACK (roll dice against a neighbouring territory — one roll at a time, or Blitz until it falls) and FORTIFY (one troop move between two of your own territories). Holding a whole continent brings extra armies; conquering at least one territory earns you a card each turn, and a set of three trades in for more troops. Win by being the last one standing — or play the mode where holding everyone's capital wins. 2-6 players, against bots or friends, on two different map scales.
• Word Duel — Everyone hunts the same hidden five-letter word at the same time: six guesses, a colour clue per letter. You watch your rivals' grids fill with colour but never see their letters. The first solve starts a closing countdown; solving in fewer guesses, faster, earns the points. 2–6 players, with bots and friends.
• Categories — A letter is drawn and everyone writes a Name, a City, an Animal, a Plant and an Object at the same time. The first to finish calls STOP and the table gets 10 seconds. A listed answer passes at once, an unknown one is voted on by the table; a unique answer scores full, a shared one half. The pen-and-paper classic, 2–6 players, with bots and friends.
• Coralbay — Coralbay is a free browser sea-life engine builder — no download, no setup. You do ONE thing a turn: take food from the tide pool, place pearls on your creatures, draw cards, or settle a creature from your hand into the shallows, the reef or the deep. The trick is the chain: every creature you add to a band raises that band's base reward AND lengthens the run of creatures that fire, left to right, when you take its action. Dolphins, seals, seahorses, turtles, octopuses, rays and sharks; three tides, a shared goal at the end of each, and a secret chart of your own. 2–4 players, against bots or with friends.
• Chess — Classic chess with a real chess clock, on four boards. Play free against bots or real opponents.
• Backgammon — Real backgammon — with the doubling cube, match play and dice you can verify.
• Sugar Duel — Everyone plays the same level at the same moment: the same board, the same falling sweets, the same goal. Line up three of a kind, make specials with four and five, and the first to finish the goal tops the round. Every round is a new world and a new goal, and big plays freeze sweets on the board of the player just ahead of you. 2–6 players, with bots and with friends.
• Merrypond — A fish-feeding game around one shared pond: take turns dropping your food in front of a fish, and at Feeding Time every fish swims home to whoever fed it the most. Its favourite food counts double! Feed your own fish to grow them and raise babies — but the big points are in DIVERSITY: every new species is worth more than the one before. 15 species, 5 foods, 2–6 players; play with bots or friends.
