Tabletop games

Classic table games rebuilt for the browser: 8-ball pool with honest ball physics, chess duels against a friend or the machine, dominoes chains, turn-based minesweeper duels. These are the games for when reflex games feel too loud — pace is deliberate, turns are yours to waste, and the scoreboard keeps its own grudges. Play against a friend on the same screen, against the computer, or in online rooms where the developer provides them; every page says exactly which modes are on offer before you commit. Controls are mouse-first and tap-friendly, so a phone works as well as a desktop. Chalk the cue, count the pips, and remember: in every table game there is a moment where the polite move and the winning move are different things.
