About games
A small collection of browser games for when you have five minutes and no desire to install anything: 2048, Snake, Tic-Tac-Toe against an AI that will not let you win, and a Would You Rather generator for when the group chat has gone quiet.
They load instantly and run entirely on your device, which means they work on aeroplane wifi, on a locked-down work laptop, and on a phone with a nearly full storage volume. There are no accounts, no leaderboards harvesting an email address, and no thirty-second video between attempts.
The Tic-Tac-Toe opponent deserves a warning: it plays a perfect game using minimax, which means it evaluates every possible continuation and picks an optimal move. Tic-Tac-Toe is a solved game, so perfect play from both sides always draws. You cannot beat it. You can force a draw every single time, and doing that reliably is a genuinely useful exercise in thinking a move ahead.
Frequently asked questions
Do these work offline?
Once the page has loaded, yes โ the game logic runs in your browser with no server round-trips. Reloading the tab while offline will not work, but an already-open game keeps playing.
Is my high score saved?
Scores are kept in your browser's local storage, so they persist on that device and that browser. They are not synced to an account, which also means clearing site data or using private browsing will reset them.
Can I really not beat the Tic-Tac-Toe AI?
No. It uses minimax to play optimally, and Tic-Tac-Toe is solved โ with perfect play from both players the game is always a draw. A draw is the best available result, and getting one every time means you are also playing perfectly.
What is the highest tile possible in 2048?
In theory 131,072, though reaching even 8192 is rare. The standard win condition is 2048, after which you can keep merging. The core strategy is to keep your largest tile pinned in one corner and never move in the direction that would dislodge it.
